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.

The force of replusion between two like charged particles will increase if​
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The distance of separation is decreased

Explanation:

From Cuolomb's law, we know that the strength of charge is inversely proportional to the distance of separation between the charges. To mean that increasing the distance let's say from 2m to 3 m would mean initial strength getting form 1/4 to 1/9 which is a decrease. The vice versa is true hence the force of repulsion can increase only when we decrease the distance of separation.

Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share. Which properties of the metal
Anastaziya [24]

The most important characteristics that are exhibited by metals are-

1- Metals are ductile

2-Most metals are conductive in nature.

3-Most metals are malleable.

4- Metals have strong inter molecular force of attraction between the.

5-Metals have luster.

6-Metals are sonorous.

Here we are given Tungsten filament.

Tungsten is  a metal.So it must be conductive and as well as ductile in nature.

The electric filament that we are using in our electric bulb glows due to the heating effect of current.Hence the chosen substances for glowing electric bulb must have high melting point.

The melting point of tungsten is 1650 degree celsius which is very high.That's why it is used in electric bulb.

Hence the correct answer to the question is the third one i.e Tungsten is ductile,has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive.

) Water flows through a horizontal coil heated from the outside by high-temperature flue gases. As it passes through the coil th
Mademuasel [1]

Explanation:

Formula for steady flow energy equation for the flow of fluid is as follows.

    m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2}] + z_{1}g] + q = m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2} + z_{1}g] + w

Now, we will substitute 0 for both z_{1} and z_{2}, 0 for w, 334.9 kJ/kg for h_{1}, 2726.5 kJ/kg for h_{2}, 5 m/s for V_{1} and 220 m/s for V_{2}.

Putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

     m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2}] + z_{1}g] + q = m[h_{1} + \frac{V^{2}_{1}}{2} + z_{1}g] + w  

     1 \times [334.9 \times 10^{3} J/kg + \frac{(5 m/s)^{2}}{2} + 0] + q = 1 \times [2726.5 \times 10^{3} + \frac{(220 m/s)^{2}}{2} + 0] + 0

                q = 6597.711 kJ

Thus, we can conclude that heat transferred through the coil per unit mass of water is 6597.711 kJ.
