A tungsten wire is 4.5 m long and 0.55 mm in diameter. what is its resistance?

Physics

Artemon [7]3 years ago
3 0
First you need to know the formula for resistance, which is:

R= ρ  \frac{L}{A}    --- (A)

Where,
ρ = Resistivity 
L = length 
A = Area

ρ = Resistivity of tungsten = 5.28 x 10^{-8} Ωm
L = Length = 4.5 m
A = Area = 0.55 * 10^{-3} * π

Plug-in the values in equation(A), you would get:

Resistance =  \frac{5.28 *10^{-8} * 4.5}{0.55 * 10^{-3} * \pi }

Resistance = 1.375 *  10^{-4}Ω

A weightlifter exerts an upward force on a 1000-N barbell and holds it at a height of 1 meter for 2 seconds. Approximately how m
Alex73 [517]

Amount of work done is zero and so power = 0 watts.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Power is the rate at which work is done, or W divided by delta t. Since the barbell is not moving, the weightlifter is not doing work on the barbell.Therefore, if the work done is zero, then the power is also zero.It may seem unusual that the data given in question is versatile i.e. A weightlifter exerts an upward force on a 1000-N barbell and holds it at a height of 1 meter for 2 seconds. But, still the answer is zero watts , this was a tricky question although conceptual basis of question was good! Power is dependent on amount of work done which is further related to displacement and here the net displacement is zero ! Hence, amount of work done is zero and so power = 0 watts.

Charlie Brown kicks a football at 24.5 m/s at 35.0. What is the maximum height of the ball?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

d = 10.076 m

Explanation:

We need to obtain the velocity of the ball in the y direction

Vy  = 24.5m/s * sin(35) = 14.053 m/s

To obtain the distance, we use the formula

vf^2 = v0^2 -2*g*d

but vf = 0

d = -vo^2/2g

d = (14.053)^2/2*(9.8) = 10.076 m

What can happen to solar radiation when it enters atmosphere​
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The solar radiation is first intercepted by Earth's atmosphere, just a small part of the radiation is absorbed by gases such as water vapor. Some of the radiation is reflected back to space by the clouds and Earth's surface.
