One wire has a cross-sectional area of 1,250 cmil and a resistance of 7 ohms. A second piece of wire, identical except for cross

-sectional area, has a resistance of 10 ohms. Determine what the cross-sectional area of this second wire is. (Cross-sectional area and resistance are inversely proportional.)

Answer:

875 cmil

Explanation:

Cross section area of wire=A_1=1250 cmil

Resistance of wire,R_1=7\Omega

R_2=10\Omega

We have to find the cross sectional area of second wire

We know that

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

According to question

l_1=l_2=l,\rho_1=\rho_2=\rho

R_1=\frac{\rho l}{1250}

7=\frac{\rho l}{1250}....(1)

10=\frac{\rho l}{A}...(2)

Equation (1) divided by equation (2) then, we get

\frac{7}{10}=\frac{A}{1250}

A=\frac{7}{10}\times 1250=875cmil

Hence, the cross- sectional area of second wire=875 cmil

Jerome solves a problem using the law of conservation of momentum. What should Jerome always keep constant for each object after
s2008m [1.1K]

Jerome solves a problem using the law of conservation of momentum. What should Jerome always keep constant for each object after the objects collide and bounce apart?

a-velocity

b-mass

c-momentum

d-direction

Answer:

b. Mass

Explanation:

This question has to do with the principle of the law of conservation of momentum which states that the momentum of a system remains constant if no external force is acting on it.

As the question states, two objects collide with each other and eventually bounce apart, so their momentum may not be conserved but the mass of the objects is constant for each non-relativistic motion. Because of this, the mass of each object prior to the collision would be the same as the mass after the collision.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. Mass.

A bird flying straight upward at 5 m/s drops a berry when it is 300 m above the ground. How fast is the berry going when it hits
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

v=77.62 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

h= - 300 m

speed of the bird ,u= 5 m/s

Lets take Speed of the berry when it hit the ground = v m/s

we know that ,if object is moving upward

v² = u² - 2 g h

u=Initial speed

v=Final speed

h=Height

Now by putting the values

v² = u² - 2 g h

v² = 5² - 2 x 10 x (-300)                ( take g = 10 m/s²)

v² =25 + 20 x 300

v² ==25 + 6000

v² =6025

v=77.62 m/s

Therefore the final speed of the berry will be 77.62 m/s.
