<u>Answer:</u>
Specific Heat
<u>Explanation:</u>
Specific heat is the measurement which describes the amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of one gram of a material by one degree Celsius.
It is the amount of heat required per unit mass to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius. The relationship between heat and the temperature change is usually expressed as shown below:
Δ
where = heat added,
= specific heat,
=mass; and
Δ = change in temperature
Answer:
<em>The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/100</em>
Explanation:
<u>Electric Resistance</u>
The electric resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length. If a wire of resistance R is cut into 10 equal parts, then each part has a resistance of R/10.
Parallel connection of resistances: If R1, R2, R3,...., Rn are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is calculated as follows:
If we have 10 wires of resistance R/10 each and connect them in parallel, the equivalent resistance is:
This sum is repeated 10 times. Operating each term:
All the terms have the same denominator, thus:
Taking the reciprocals:
The equivalent resistance of the combination is R/100
