Answer:

Option B) C and D

Explanation:

The amount of charge passing through a resistor each second corresponds to the definition of current, so the problem is asking "which resistors have the same amount of current".

Let's keep in mind that:

- When two resistors are in series (=they are connected into the same branch of the circuit), the current flowing through each resistor is the same

- When two resistors are in parallel (=they are connected into different branches), the potential difference across each resistor is the same

Looking at the previous definitions, we have to find the two resistors in the circuit that are connected in series. We see that resistors C and D are in the same branch, so they are in series: therefore, the current flowing through resistor C and D is the same.

How large a force is necessary to stretch a 4.0-mm-diameter steel wire from its original length by 1.0%?

jekas [21]

The force needed to stretch the steel wire by 1% is 25,140 N.

The given parameters include;

diameter of the steel, d = 4 mm

the radius of the wire, r = 2mm = 0.002 m

original length of the wire, L₁

final length of the wire, L₂ = 1.01 x L₁ (increase of 1% = 101%)

extension of the wire e = L₂ - L₁ = 1.01L₁ - L₁ = 0.01L₁

the Youngs modulus of steel, E = 200 Gpa

The area of the steel wire is calculated as follows;

$A = \pi r^2\\\\ A= 3.142 \times (0.002)^2\\\\ A= 1.257 \times 10^{-5} \ m^2$

The force needed to stretch the wire is calculated from Youngs modulus of elasticity given as;

$E = \frac{stress}{strain} = \frac{F/A}{e/L} = \frac{FL}{Ae} \\\\F = \frac{EAe}{L}$

$F = \frac{200 \times 10^9\ \times\ 1.257\times 10^{-5}\ \times \ 0.01l_1}{l_1} \\\\F = 25,140\ N$

Thus, the force needed to stretch the steel wire by 1% is 25,140 N.
