These substances are called insulators. We also have a class of substance called a semi-conductor. They share many properties with insulators. You can sometimes see them on telephone poles.

You need to produce a set of cylindrical copper wire 3.5 m long that will have a

vazorg [7]

Solution :

We know, resistance is given by :

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

$A = \dfrac{\rho l }{R}\\\\A = \dfrac{1.72\times 10^{-8} \times 3.5 }{0.125}\\\\A = 4.816 \times 10^{-7} \ m^2$

Now, we know mass of wire is given by :

$Mass = Density \times Volume\\\\\M = 8.9 \times 10^3 \times 4.816 \times 10^{-7} \times 3.5 kg\\\\M = 0.01500\ kg\\\\M = 15.00\ gram$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A football player with a mass of 88 kg and a speed of 2.0 m/s collides head-on with a player from the opposing team whose mass i

Ket [755]

Answer:

Speed of another player, v₂ = 1.47 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of football player, m₁ = 88 kg

Speed of player, v₁ = 2 m/s

Mass of player of opposing team, m₂ = 120 kg

The players stick together and are at rest after the collision. It shows an example of inelastic collision. Using the conservation of linear momentum as :

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)V$
