Two cylindrical resistors are made of the same material and have the same resistance. The resistors, R1 and R2, have different r

adii, r1 and r2, and different lengths, L1 and L2. Which of the following relative values for radii and lengths would result in equal resistances?
a. r1 = r2 and L1 = 2L2
b. 2r1 = r2 and L1 = 2L2
c. r1 = r2 and 4L1 = L2
d. 2r1 = r2 and 4L1 = L2

Answer:

Option d is correct.

Explanation:

We know , resistance of a body is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to its area.

R=\dfrac{\rho\ L}{A}=\dfrac{\rho\ L}{\pi r^2}      ( Here, \rho is constant dependent on object material )

Writing R_1 \ and\ R_2 also :

R_1=\dfrac{\rho\ L_1}{\pi r_1^2}\ , \  R_2=\dfrac{\rho\ L_2}{\pi r_2^2}      ( since they are of same material therefore, \rho is same.)

Now , if r_2=2r_1 \ and \ 4L_1=L_2.

Then R_1=R_2

Therefore, option d. is correct.

Hence, this is the required solution.

pishuonlain [190]

The wires would remain attracted to each other.

Option D.

Explanation:

It is known that magnetic flux will be generated in conductors with varying emf. So when current is flowing in two parallel conductors, the magnetic flux will be generated in those wires. If the current is flowing in same direction in both the wires, then the magnetic flux will be generated towards inside and outside the wires. Thus, the wire will get attracted to each other till the time the current is flowing in the same direction in both the wires. So if the current flow in each wire was reversed at the same time, then the wire would remain attracted to each other.

You have a 100 ohm resistor. How
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

R2 = 300 Ohms

Explanation:

Let the two resistors be R1 and R2 respectively.

RT is the total equivalent resistance.

Given the following data;

R1 = 100 Ohms

RT = 75 Ohms

To find R2;

Mathematically, the total equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel is given by the formula;

RT = \frac {R1*R2}{R1 + R2}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

75 = \frac {100*R2}{100 + R2}

Cross-multiplying, we have;

75 * (100 + R2) = 100R2

7500 + 75R2 = 100R2

7500 = 100R2 - 75R2

7500 = 25R2

R2 = 7500/25

R2 = 300 Ohms

How is temperature related to the physical change of a substance?
WINSTONCH [101]
When you heat something of cool it down you don't change the substance you might change the why is looks, but it is still the same substance. For example you cool water to 0 degrees Celsius it turns into ice but it still is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen H2O. Physical changes will change state and/or form but it will still be what it originally was on the molecular level. Hope that helped.

What is the safest way to enter a body of water? Enter with you feet first. Dive in.
zimovet [89]

Answer: feet first

Explanation:

It is always the safest to enter with your feet first. You can become paralyzed or injure you neck if you dive into a body of water that is too shallow. Therefore its always best to dive feet first instead.
