Answer: 
Explanation:
Given
Cross-sectional area of wire 
Extension of wire 
Extension in a wire is given by

where, 

for same force, length and material

Divide (i) and (ii)

Answer:
Yes, there is such a way.
Explanation:
If currents flow in the same direction in two or more long parallel wires, there will be an attractive force between the wires. If the current flows in different directions, there will be a repulsive force between the wires. In this case, these three parallel wires, can be be made to carry current in the same direction, creating an attractive force between all three wires.
Note that it is not possible to have at the least one of them carry current in the opposite direction and still have an attractive current between them.
Answer:
The velocity of a falling object
Explanation:
The positive X axis is towards right and positive Y axis is towards up, so North direction is positive
A vector with less than 1 magnitude is not negative, because its magnitude may be in between 0 and 1 which is positive vector.
Any vector whose magnitude is greater than 1 is never be a negative vector.
The velocity of a falling object is towards bottom, that is towards negative Y axis. So that vector is negative.
Answer:
a) the values of the angle α is 45.5°
b) the required magnitude of the vertical force, F is 41 lb
Explanation:
Applying the free equilibrium equation along x-direction
from the diagram
we say
∑Fₓ = 0
Pcosα - 425cos30° = 0
525cosα - 368.06 = 0
cosα = 368.06/525
cosα = 0.701
α = cos⁻¹ (0.701)
α = 45.5°
Also Applying the force equation of motion along y-direction
∑Fₓ = ma
Psinα + F + 425sin30° - 600 = (600/32.2)(1.5)
525sin45.5° + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95
374.46 + F + 212.5 - 600 = 27.95
F - 13.04 = 27.95
F = 27.95 + 13.04
F = 40.99 ≈ 41 lb
