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.

For each question, select the right answer from the choices below:

Leni [432]

Option (ii) B is the correct option. The object on the moon has greater mass.

To resolve this, utilize the formulas Force = Mass * Acceleration.

The equation can be used to find the mass given the force in Newtons, using 9.8 m/s² for the acceleration of gravity of the earth and 1.6 m/s² for the moon.

Calculating the mass on earth:

30 N = 9.8 m/s² * mass

This results in a mass of 3.0 kg for the object on Earth.

Calculating the mass of the moon:

30 N = 1.6 m/s²2 * mass

Thus, the moon's object has a mass of 19. kg.

This can be explained by the fact that the earth has a stronger gravitational pull than the moon, producing more force per kilogram of mass. As a result, the moon's mass must be bigger to produce the same amount of force at a lower acceleration from gravity (1.6 m/s² vs. 9.8 m/s²).

6) Find the speed a spherical raindrop would attain by falling from 4.00 km. Do this:a) In the absence of air dragb) In the pres

sleet_krkn [62]

We are asked to determine the velocity of a rain drop if it falls from 4 km.

To do that we will use the following formula:

$2ah=v_f^2-v_0^2$

Where:

$\begin{gathered} a=\text{ acceleration} \\ h=\text{ height} \\ v_f,v_0=\text{ final and initial velocity} \end{gathered}$

If we assume the initial velocity to be 0 we get:

$2ah=v_f^2$

The acceleration is the acceleration due to gravity:

$2gh=v_f^2$

Now, we take the square root to both sides:

$\sqrt{2gh}=v_f$

Now, we substitute the values:

$\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(4000m)}=v_f$

solving the operations:

$280\frac{m}{s}=v$

Therefore, the velocity without air drag is 280 m/s.

Part B. we are asked to determine the velocity if there is air drag. To do that we will use the following formula:

$F_d=\frac{1}{2}C\rho_{air}Av^2$

Where:

$\begin{gathered} F_d=drag\text{ force} \\ C=\text{ constant} \\ \rho_{air}=\text{ density of air} \\ A=\text{ area} \\ v=\text{ velocity} \end{gathered}$

We need to determine the drag force. To do that we will use the following free-body diagram:

Since the velocity that the raindrop reaches is the terminal velocity and its a constant velocity this means that the acceleration is zero and therefore the forces are balanced:

$F_d=mg$

Now, we determine the mass of the raindrop using the following formula:

$m=\rho_{water}V$

Where:

$\begin{gathered} \rho_{water}=\text{ density of water} \\ V=\text{ volume} \end{gathered}$

The volume is the volume of a sphere, therefore:

$m=\rho_{water}(\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3)$

Since the diameter of the raindrop is 3 millimeters, the radius is 1.5 mm or 0.0015 meters. Substituting we get:

$m=(0.98\times10^3\frac{kg}{m^3})(\frac{4}{3}\pi(0.0015m)^3)$

Solving the operations:

$m=1.39\times10^{-5}kg$

Now, we substitute the values in the formula for the drag force:

$F_d=(1.39\times10^{-5}kg)(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})$

Solving the operations:

$F_d=1.36\times10^{-4}N$

Now, we substitute in the formula:

$1.36\times10^{-4}N=\frac{1}{2}C\rho_{air}Av^2$

Now, we solve for the velocity:

$\frac{1.36\times10^{-4}N}{\frac{1}{2}C\rho_{air}A}=v^2$

Now, we substitute the values. We will use the area of a circle:

$\frac{1.36\times10^{-4}N}{\frac{1}{2}(0.45)(1.21\frac{kg}{m^3})(\pi r^2)}=v^2$

Substituting the radius:

$\frac{1.36\cdot10^{-4}N}{\frac{1}{2}(0.45)(1.21\frac{kg}{m^{3}})(\pi(0.0015m)^2)}=v^2$

Solving the operations:

$70.67\frac{m^2}{s^2}=v^2$

Now, we take the square root to both sides:

$\begin{gathered} \sqrt{70.67\frac{m^2}{s^2}}=v \\ \\ 8.4\frac{m}{s}=v \\ \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the velocity is 8.4 m/s

I need help with these questions.

strojnjashka [21]

I'll go ahead and answer the ones here without an answer. For reference, the half-life formula is <em>final amount = original amount(1/2)^(time/half-life)</em>

<em />

4) 12.5g

x = 100(1/2)^(63/21)

5) 50g

3.125 = x(1/2)^(0.1/0.025)

6) 500g

x = 4000(1/2)^(525/175)

7) 0.24g

0.06 = x(1/2)^(11430/5730)

8) 125g

x = 1000(1/2)^(17100/5700)

Hope this helps! :)
