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

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

according to einstein's formulae E=mc2  1kg of mass is equivalent to (9joules  when rounded off )

in this situation we ignore the bridge height and work hand in hand with the relativity and force

so...if you do the conversion you will find the suitable answer which is 16.9J

The relationship between body mass body weight and body density
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The formula for calculating Density is:

= Mass / Volume

From this formula, we can say that the relationship between Mass and Density is a direct one. In other words, if mass is increasing - all else being equal - then density will increase as well.

If mass however was decreasing, density would have to decrease as well.

For example, assume 3 bricks have masses of 5kg, 10kg and 15kg. Also assume that the bricks all have the same volume of 5 m³.

Density of 5kg brick = 5 / 5 = 1 kg/m³

Density of 10kg brick = 10 / 5 = 2kg / m³

Density of 15kg brick = 15 / 5 = 3 kg /m³

<em>Notice how density increases as mass increases and decreases when mass decreases. </em>

A 480 g peregrine falcon reaches a speed of 75 m/s in a vertical dive called a stoop. If we assume that the falcon speeds up und
Svet_ta [14]

The minimum height of the dive needed to achieve the given speed is v = 69 m/s is 242.9 m.

Given information:

The mass of peregrine falcon is,  m = 480

The final speed reached by the peregrine falcon in a vertical dive is, v = 69 m/s

It is given that the falcon is diving vertically downward. It can be compared with the same situation as the free-falling object under the effect of gravity only. So, the initial velocity of the falcon will be u = 0 m/s  as the motion starts with rest.

The value of the gravitational acceleration of gravity is, g = 9.80 m/s²

Now, using the third equation of motion, the minimum height  required for the final speed will be,

v² - u² = 2gh

69² - 0² = 2 × 9.8 × h

h = 242.9m.

Therefore, the minimum height of the dive needed to achieve the given speed is 242.9 m.

Is a process that modifies light waves so they vibrate in a single plane
madam [21]

The process you're fishing for is "polarization", but that's a

misleading description.

Polarization doesn't do anything to change the light waves. 

It simply filters out (absorbs, as with a polarizing filter) the

light waves that aren't vibrating in the desired plane, and

allows only those that are to pass.

The intensity of a light beam is always reduced after

polarizing it, because much (most) of the original light

has been removed.

A laser light source may be thought of as an exception,

since everything coming out of the laser is polarized.
