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

For a particular pipe in a pipe-organ, it has been determined that the frequencies 296 Hz and 370 Hz are two adjacent natural fr
user100 [1]

Answer:

fundamental frequency of pipe will be equal to 74 Hz

Explanation:

We have given for a particular organ pipe two adjacent frequency are 296 Hz and 370 Hz

Speed of the sound in air is 343 m/sec

We have to find the fundamental frequency for the pipe

Fundamental frequency will be equal to difference of the two adjacent frequency

So fundamental frequency = 370 - 296 = 74 Hz

So fundamental frequency of pipe will be equal to 74 Hz

Determine the gravitational field 300km above the surface of the earth. How does this compare to the field on the earth's surfac
Serjik [45]
The strength of the gravitational field is given by:
g= \frac{GM}{r^2}
where
G is the gravitational constant
M is the Earth's mass
r is the distance measured from the centre of the planet.

In our problem, we are located at 300 km above the surface. Since the Earth radius is R=6370 km, the distance from the Earth's center is:
r=R+h=6370 km+300 km=6670 km= 6.67 \cdot 10^{6} m

And now we can use the previous equation to calculate the field strength at that altitude:
g= \frac{GM}{r^2}= \frac{(6.67 \cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(5.97 \cdot 10^{24} kg)}{(6.67 \cdot 10^6 m)^2}  = 8.95 m/s^2

And we can see this value is a bit less than the gravitational strength at the surface, which is g_s = 9.81 m/s^2.

Note that the scale bar under the photo is labeled 1 μm (micrometer). The scale bar works the same way as a scale on a map, wher
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Hello your question has some missing parts attached below is the complete question

answer : 4 μm

Explanation:

since the scale bar works the same way as a scale on a map , each bar will therefore represent 1 μm and the mature parent cell's is about 4 times the labeled value hence the Mature parent cell diameter will approximately be : 4 μm

A particle whose speed is 50 m/sec moves along the line from A(2,1) to B (9,25)
WINSTONCH [101]

First, calculate for the distance between the given points A and B by using the equation,

<span>                                                D = sqrt ((x2 – x1)2 + (y2 – y1)2)</span>

 

Substitute the known values:

<span>                                                D = sqrt((9 – 2)2 + (25 – 1)2)</span>

<span>                                                D = 25 m</span>

 

I assume the unknown here is the time it would require for the particle to move from point A to B. This can be answered by dividing the calculated distance by the speed given above.

<span>                                                t = (25 m)/ (50 m/s) = 0.5 s</span>

 

<span>Thus, it will take 0.5s for the particle to complete the route. </span>

How do storms on Jupiter differ from storm systems on Earth?
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

As, Jupiter are one of the largest planet in the solar system and the large amount of the mass of the jupiter are consisted with the gases. The storm tracks in the symmetrical path at the proper latitude in the system. But the storm tracks on the earth in the system where planet are highly variable.
