1 answer:

5 0

Minerals are naturally occurring inorganic (they're not formed from amino acids, peptides, or enzymes) chemical compounds.

From the given options, the following describes a step in the formation of the minerals: materials break up due to rise in temperature.

Correct answer: D

No I don’t think so. But it worth a try tho. Try it out.

A wire of Nichrome (a nickelâ€“ chromiumâ€“ iron alloy commonly used in heating elements) is 1.0 m long and 1.0 mmÂ² in cross-se

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The conductivity of Nichrome is $2\times 10^6\ S/m$ .

Explanation:

Given:

Potential difference (V) = 2.0 V

Current flowing (I) = 4.0 A

Length of wire (L) = 1.0 m

Area of cross section of wire (A) = 1.0 mm² = 1 × 10⁻⁶ m² [1 mm² = 10⁻⁶ m²]

We know, from Ohm's law, that the ratio of voltage and current is always a constant and equal to the resistance of the resistor. Therefore, the resistance of the nichrome wire is given as:

$R=\frac{V}{A}=\frac{2.0}{4.0}=0.5\ \Omega$

Now, resistance of the nichrome wire in terms of its resistivity, length and area of cross section is given as:

$R=\rho\frac{L}{A}$

Where, $\rho\to resistivity\ of\ Nichrome$

Now, plug in all the values given and solve for $\rho$ . This gives,

$0.5\ \Omega=\rho\frac{1.0\ m}{1\times 10^{-6}\ m^2}\\\\\rho=\frac{0.5\times 1\times 10^{-6}}{1.0}=0.5\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m$

Now, conductivity of a material is the reciprocal of its resistivity. Therefore, the conductivity of Nichrome is given as:

$\sigma=\frac{1}{\rho}=\frac{1}{0.5\times 10^{-6}}=2\times 10^6\ S/m$

Conductivity is measured in Siemens per meter (S/m)

Therefore, the conductivity of Nichrome is $2\times 10^6\ S/m$ .

A rod of length L and mass M has a nonuniform mass distribution. The linear mass density (mass per length) is λ=cx2, where x is

grigory [225]

Answer:

Explanation:

λ=c x²

c = λ / x²

λ is mass / length

so its dimensional formula is ML⁻¹

x is length so its dimensional formula is L

c = λ / x²

= ML⁻¹ / L²

= ML⁻³

B )

We shall find out the mass of the rod with the help of given expression of mass per unit length and equate it with given mass that is M

The mass in the rod is symmetrically distributed on both side of middle point.

we consider a small strip of rod of length dx at x distance away from middle point

its mass dm = λdx = cx² dx

By integrating it from -L to +L we can calculate mass of whole rod , that is

M = ∫cx² dx

= [c x³ / 3] from -L/2 to +L/2

= c/3 [ L³/8 + L³/8]

M = c L³/12

c = 12 M L⁻³

C ) Moment of inertia of rod

∫dmx²

= ∫λdxx²

= ∫cx²dxx²

= ∫cx⁴dx

= c x⁵ / 5 from - L/2 to L/2

= c / 5 ( L⁵/ 32 +L⁵/ 32)

= (2c / 160)L⁵

= (c / 80) L⁵

= (12 M L⁻³/80)L⁵

= 3/20 ML²
