-- A shorter wire will allow electricity to  move through at a higher rate than a  longer wire . . . True, but "rate" is a poor way to say it. It should say "a higher current".  

-- A short, thick, cold wire is the best  conductor . . .  True

-- How well a material conducts current is an internal factor affecting resistance . . . True

-- If you double the length of a wire, you cut  the resistance in half . . . False. Double the length also means double the resistance.

-- If you double the thickness of a wire, you  cut the resistance in half . . . True

-- Superconductors have no measurable  resistance . . . True. They literally have NO resistance.

-- The higher the temperature of the  conductor, the lower the resistance . . . False. Higher temperature means higher resistance, for almost all conductors.

-- The resistance in a wire with less  thickness is less . . . False. We just said, up above  in Question-#5, "If you double the thickness of a wire, you  cut the resistance in half". Less thickness means more resistance. Just like a highway with fewer lanes.

-- Thickness, length, and temperature are  internal factors that affect resistance . . . False. They affect resistance, but they're external factors.

-- When a light is first switched on the light  bulb's filament has a lower resistance  than after it gives off light for awhile . . . True. Look back 3 questions from here, where it says "Higher temperature means higher resistance".

Renald completed only one trial of his experiment. what effect will this most likely have?
Tatiana [17]
Remember the rule of thumb that every person learns in Elementary Science? You must do multiple experiments in order to get to a conclusion. In order for a conclusion to be valid you must test the conclusion multiple times. You wouldn't want a doctor to just test an aspirin 1 time on 1 patient and say yes it works correct? No, you would want him/her to test on multiple patients in multiple settings and conditions so that when you take an aspirin you know that it will work for what you are taking it for. So ..... with all that being said.....Your answer is (A). The results are more likely to have errors.

The tension in the rope securing the upper pulley and the force that must be applied to keep the system in equilibrium ​
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a frictionless system with no acceleration, the tension in the rope must be F along its entire length

FBD analysis of the lower pulley has two upward acting tension vectors F and one downward acting weight vector W

2F = W

F = W/2

FBD analysis of the upper pulley has one upward acting support vector T and three downward acting tension vectors F

T = 3F

T = 3(W/2)

T = 1.5W
