gravitational force is the attraction force of earth on an object which is near the surface of earth

It will not depend on the velocity or acceleration of earth

So it will not change while an object is stationary or it is moving with some acceleration

So here we will say that force will remain the same

F = mg

A metallic conductor has a resistivity of 35 × 10 −6 Ω⋅m. What is the resistance of a piece that is 20 m long and has a uniform
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Therefore the resistance of the conductor is 175Ω

Explanation:

Resistance:

  • Resistance of a metallic conductor is directly proportional to its length(l).
  • Resistance of a metallic conductor is inversely proportional to its cross section area(A).

The notation sign of resistance is R.

The unit of resistance is ohm (Ω).

Therefore,

R \propto l

and

R \propto \frac{1}{A}

\therefore R\propto \frac{l}{A}

\Rightarrow R=\rho \frac{l}{A}

ρ is the proportional constant.

It is also known as resistivity of that metal.

Given ρ=35×10⁻⁶Ω-m

l= 20 m

A= 4.0×10⁻⁶m²

\therefore R=35\times 10^{-6}\times \frac{20}{4.0\times 10^{-6}}

       =175Ω

Therefore the resistance of the conductor is 175Ω
