A wire with a circular cross section has radius 0.16 mm and is lying along the x axis from x=0 to x=0.20 m. The wire is made of

an alloy that varies with its length in such a way that the resistivity is given by rho(x)=3x5 Ω⋅m, for x in meters. What is the resistance of this wire?

Answer:

Resistance = 68.23 Ω

Explanation:

Let's start off by remembering the fact that when resistors are connected in series, their resistances is added up to find the total resistance.

The equation for resistance using resistivity is given below:

Resistance = Resistivity * Length / Area

where Length = x

Resistivity = 3x^5

and Area = \pi *0.00016^2 = 8.04 * 10^(-8)   meter squared

Substituting in the value of resistivity, length and area we get:

Resistance = \frac{ (3x^5) * (x) }{(8.04*10^-^8)}

Resistance = \frac{ (3x^6) }{(8.04*10^-^8)}

Since resistance in series is added, we can simply integrate this formula over the length (x = 0 to x = 0.2) to get the total resistance.

Resistance = \int\ {\frac{ (3x^6) }{(8.04*10^-^8)}} \, dx

Resistance = (5.4857*10^-^6) /(8.04*10^-^8)

Resistance = 68.23 Ω

Which of the following describes the electron sharing between hydrogen and fluorine A.Hydrogen and fluorine share one electron w
atroni [7]
Hydrogen has one electron in its outermost shell, while fluorine has seven electron in its outermost shell, hence both hydrogen and fluorine needs a single electron to complete its outermost shell. 
That's why there is a single bond between hydrogen and fluorine.
Hence both hydrogen and fluorine share one electron with each other, so option "A" is correct.

What is my displacement if i walked 200 meters west then turned around and walked 150 meters east
Alinara [238K]
You're walking in one direction, and then the exact opposite of that direction, so you simply have to subtract the two distances. 
200-150=50
You're 50 meters west of where you originally started.
You're west because 200 meters west is greater than 150 meters east. If the distance walked east was greater than the distance walked west, you would've been east of your starting position.

Which of the following statements is true about earth's magnetic poles
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: b) they are the areas where Earth's magnetic field is weakest

Explanation:

According to classical physics, a magnetic field always has two associated magnetic poles (north and south), the same happens with magnets. This is because for <em>classical physics</em>, naturally, magnetic monopoles can not exist.  

In this context, Earth is similar to a magnetic bar with a north pole and a south pole. This means, the axis that crosses the Earth from pole to pole is like a big magnet.  

Now, by convention, on all magnets the north pole is where the magnetic lines of force leave the magnet and the south pole is where the magnetic lines of force enter the magnet.  Then, for the case of the Earth, the north pole of the magnet is located towards the geographic south pole and the south pole of the magnet is near the geographic north pole.  

Being the magnetic poles the places where the Earth's magnetic field is weakest. And it is for this reason, moreover, that the magnetic field lines enter the Earth through its magnetic south pole (which is the geographic north pole).

In an electric motor _____energy is transformed into_____energy?
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

mechanical energy

Explanation:

In an electric motor the electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy. Almost every mechanical movement that we see around us is accomplished by an electric motor. Electric machines are a means of converting energy. Motors take electrical energy and produce mechanical energy.
