Answer:

Area=0.05 m^{2}

Explanation:

Given pressure=5000 Pa

and weight=250 N

Using equation

Pressure=Force/Area

So,Area=Force/pressure

Area=250/5000

Area=0.05 m^{2}

zlopas [31]

The resistance of a given conductor depends on its electrical resistivity (\rho), its length(L) and its cross-sectional area (A), as follows:

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

In this case, we have L'=138L, \rho'=\rho and A'=A. So, the total resistance of the wire with length of 138m is:

R'=\frac{\rho' L'}{A'}\\R'=\frac{\rho 138L}{A}\\R'=138\frac{\rho L}{A}\\R'=138R\\R'=138(0.24\Omega)\\R'=33.12\Omega

Light-rail passenger trains that provide transportation within and between cities speed up and slow down with a nearly constant
Elena L [17]

Answer:

19 m/s

Explanation:

The complete question requires the final speed to be calculated.

Velocity is the rate and direction at which an object moves. Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity per unit time and can be calculated by the difference in velocity over a given time.

For this question, first the unknown acceleration must be calculated and used to determine the final velocity

Step 1: Calculate the acceleration

a=\frac{v_{2}-v{1}}{t_{1}}

a=\frac{11-7}{8}

a=\frac{4}{8}

a=0.5 m/s^{2}

Step 2: Calculate the velocity using the acceleration calculated above

a=\frac{v_{3}-v{2}}{t_{2}}

0.5=\frac{v_{3}-11}{16}

v_{3}=19 m/s
