Explanation:

Given that,

Length of gold wire, l = 4 m

Voltage of battery, V = 1.5 V

Current, I = 4 mA

The resistivity of gold, \rho=2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m

Resistance in terms of resistivity is given by :

R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

Also, V = IR

So,

\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}

A is area of wire,

\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi r^2}, r is radius, r = d/2 (diameter=d)

\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi (d/2)^2}\\\\\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{4\rho l}{\pi d^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{V\pi}} \\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 4\times 4\times 10^{-3}}{1.5\times \pi}} \\\\d=18.2\ \mu m

Out of four option, near option is (C) 17 μm.

What is the minimum number of vectors lying in the same plane required to givs zero resulant
alexgriva [62]
Well the trivial answer is zero, since there is indeed a "zero vector". Assuming you aren't allowed to use the zero vector you would need at least two. They would be antiparallel and of equal magnitude. (That is be pointing in opposite directions and have the same length)

A 2.74 g coin, which has zero potential energy at the surface, is dropped into a 12.2 m well. After the coin comes to a stop in
VikaD [51]

Answer:

B. - 0.328

Explanation

Potential Energy:<em> This is the energy of a body due to position.</em>

<em>The S.I unit of potential energy is Joules (J).</em>

<em>It can be expressed mathematically as</em>

<em>Ep = mgh........................... Equation 1</em>

<em>Where Ep = potential energy, m = mass of the coin, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity,</em>

<em>Given: m = 2.74 g = 0.00274 kg, h = 12.2 m, g = 9.8 m/s²</em>

Substituting these values into equation 1

Ep = 0.00274×12.2×9.8

Ep = 0.328 J.

Note: Since the potential energy at the surface is zero, the potential Energy with respect to the surface = -0.328 J

The right option is B. - 0.328
