A 5000-km long cable consists of seven copper wires, each of diameter 0.85 mm, bundled together and surrounded by an insulating

sheath. Calculate the resistance of the cable. Use 3x10^-6 cm.Ω for the resistivity of the copper.

Answer:

The resistance of the cable is 37762.91 ohms.

Explanation:

let L be the length of the cable, A be the cross-sectional area of the cable and   r be the resistivity of the copper.

then, the resistance of the cable is given by:

R = r×L/A

  = (3×10^-8)×(5000×10^3)/(7×π((0.85×10^-3)/2)^2)

  = 37762.91 ohms

Therefore, the resistance of the cable is 37762.91 ohms.

How does a magnet work?
Alona [7]
All magnets have north and south poles. Opposite poles are attracted to each other, while the same poles repel each other. When you rub a piece of iron along a magnet, the north-seeking poles of the atoms in the iron line up in the same direction. The force generated by the aligned atoms creates a magnetic field.

You place a book on top of a spring and push down, compressing the spring by 10 cm. When you let go of the book, it is pushed up
enot [183]
At First, there is chemical Energy( in your muscels) which is Used to Push down the spring. This Energy becomes the Energy of the spring, which increases until you stop pushing. If you Put your hand away, the Energy of the spring will become kinetic energ. This Energy is at the highest Level the Moment the book ist Leaving the spring. Afterwards, the kinetic Energy decreases while the Gravitational Potential Energy increases.

Learning Goal: To understand the distinction between mass and weight and to be able to calculate the weight of an object from it
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

The true statements are: A, D

Explanation:

This interesting problem of the conceptual relationship between mass and weight, the equation for weight is

        W = m g

From Newton's second law

       W = ma

Where g the acceleration of gravity, this acceleration can vary at several points, for example, in a vertical circumference the acceleration of gravity is always down and the centripetal acceleration continuously changes direction therefore the body weight constantly changes from zero to the maximum value.

The mass instead is always the same and is the resistance (inertia) to the movement of the bodies

Of the aforementioned the peo has the unit mass multiplied by the acceleration

           

        Weight [N] = mass [kg] acceleration [m / s2]

        Weight [lb] = mass [slug] acceleration [ft / s2]

Examine the statements

A) 12.0 lb. True pounds are the mass for acceleration. English measurement system

B) 0.34g False. Grams are units of mass,

C) 120 kg. False. The kilograms is a multiple of the grams, which are units of mass

D) 1600 kN True the newton is the unit of weight, the Newton kilo is a multiple

E) 0.34 m False meters are units of length

F) 411 cm False centimeters is a submultiple of the meter that is a unit of length

The true statements are: A, D

Benjamin Franklin has convinced his hapless assistant Mike Piepan to participate in an experiment on electiricty. Ben has set up
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Mike will receive an electric shock

Explanation:

Human body is a conductor of electricity. When lightning strikes rod and give it negative charge, the rod will dissipate its charge as soon as it comes in contact with earth via conduting material. Mike will receive a severe electric shock as negatice charge pass through his body to other rod and to the ground.His body will feel numb. He may also get unconscious.

an airplane flies at a speed of 100 m/s and starts to accelerate constantly at a rate of 50 m/s2. how fast is the plane flying a
mart [117]

Answer:

331.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial velocity  = 100m/s

Acceleration  = 50m/s²

Distance  = 1km   = 1000m

Unknown:

Final velocity = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we have to apply the right motion equation shown below;

     v²  = u²  + 2aS

 v is the final velocity

 u is the initial velocity

 a is the acceleration

 S is the distance

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

     v² = 100² + (2 x 50 x 1000)

     v² = 110000

     v = √110000  = 331.7m/s
