Answer:
12.5 ft/s
Explanation:
Height of person = 6 ft
height of lamp post = 10 ft
According to the question,
dx / dt = 5 ft/s
Let the rate of tip of the shadow moves away is dy/dt.
According to the diagram
10 / y = 6 / (y - x)
10 y - 10 x = 6 y
y = 2.5 x
Differentiate both sides with respect to t.
dy / dt = 2.5 dx / dt
dy / dt = 2.5 (5) = 12.5 ft /s
Answer:
Explanation:
The resistance of a wire can be given by the following expression

where R is resistance , ρ is specific resistance , L is length of wire and A is cross sectional area
specific resistance of metals are almost the same . So in the present case ρ and l are same . Hence the formula becomes
R = k / A where k is a constant .
The diameter of wire becomes two times hence area of cross section becomes 4 times or 4A .
Resistance becomes 1/4 times . Hence if resistance of metal wire is R , resistance of silver wire will be R / 4 .
current = voltage / resistance
In case of metal wire
8 x 10⁻³ = V / R
In case of silver wire
I = V / (R / 4 ) , I is current , V is potential difference .
I = 4 x V/R
= 4 x 8 x 10⁻³ A
= 32 mA.
Answer:
volume = 8 cm^3 + 32 g / 0.8 g/ cm^3 = 48 cm^3
mass = 32 + 8 = 40 g
40 g / 48 cm^3
Explanation:
You can look at magnesium, it can react with oxygen to form oxides. (chemical) it is malleable and a solid at room temperature. (physical)
to measure its density, the mass and volume can be worked out and from this density too. look up the equation, it is quite easy :)
physical changes -- it can be melted, and oxidized <span />
