The electrical resistance of a wire varies directly as its length and inversely as the square of its diameter. a wire with a len

gth of 200 inches and a diameter of one-quarter of an inch has a resistance of 20 ohms. find the electrical resistance in a 500 inch wire with the same diameter.

The electrical resistance of the wire is proportional to its length L and inversely proportional to the square of its diameter, 1/r^2. 

The length of the wire in the problem is changed from 200 inches to 500 inches, so the new length is 2.5 times the initial length:
\frac{L_1}{L_0}= \frac{500}{200}=2.5
the diameter of the wire is not changed, so the new electrical resistance must be 2.5 times the original value:
R_1 = 2.5 R_0 = 2.5 \cdot 20 \Omega =50 \Omega

Which is one way scientists indicate how precise and accurate there experimental measurements are
kherson [118]
They do the method 3 times to be sure. Because if you do it once, that could mean anything. If you do it twice, it may or may not have the same result. If you do it 3 times and it matches one of the previous answers, then it's likely that it's correct.

How is temperature related to the physical change of a<br>substance​
blagie [28]

Answer:

~~Now, you have left your question very open ended and didn't ask for any particular kind of answer so I'll do my best to get what you're looking for.~~

A physical change in a substance doesn't change what the substance is. It can possibly melt or freeze an object. I mean heat makes things expand while cooling makes them retract.... In chemical change where there is a chemical reaction, a new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed.
