Power in a wire where current is flowing can be calculated from the product of the square of the current and the resistance. Resistance is equal to the product of resistivity and length divided by the area of the wire. We do as follows:

Resistance  =  2.44 × 10-8 ( 0.11) / (π)(0.0009)^2 = 1.055x10^-3 <span>Ω

P = I^2R = .170^2 (</span>1.055x10^-3 ) = 3.048x10^-5 W

A block of mass 12.2 kg is sliding at an initial velocity of 6.65 m/s in the positive x-direction. The surface has a coefficient
valentina_108 [34]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the block, m = 12.2 kg

Initial velocity of the block, u = 6.65 m/s

The coefficient of kinetic friction, \mu_k=0.253

(a)The force of kinetic friction is given by :

f=\mu_k mg

mg is the normal force

So,

f=0.253\times 12.2\times 9.8\\\\f=30.24\ N

(b) Net force acting on the block in the horizontal direction,

f = ma

a is the acceleration of the block

a=\dfrac{f}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{30.24}{12.2}\\\\a=2.47\ m/s^2

(c) Let d is the distance covered by the block before coming to the rest. Using third equation of motion as follows :

v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{-(6.65)^2}{2\times 2.47}\\\\d=-8.95\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.

An object at 20∘c absorbs 25.0 j of heat. what is the change in entropy δs of the object?
anastassius [24]
From the definition of entropy, the entropy change of an object is
\delta S =  \frac{Q}{T}
where
Q is the heat absorbed
T is the absolute temperature

in our problem, we have Q=25.0 J, while the absolute temperature is (converting in Kelvin)
T=20 ^{\circ}C + 273 = 293 K

and so the entropy change is
\delta S=  \frac{25.0 J}{293 K}=0.085 JK^{-1}

A ray of monochromatic light having a wavelength of 4.00 x 10-7 meter in air passes from air through Lucite and then into air ag
Sliva [168]

Answer:

Explanation:

wavelength of light = 4 x 10⁻⁷ m

frequency = velocity in air / 4 x 10⁻⁷

= 3 x 10⁸ / 4 x 10⁻⁷

= .75 x 10¹⁵ Hz

= 75 x 10¹³ Hz.

Wave length = 4 x 10⁻⁷ m

= 400 x 10⁻⁹m

400 nm

colour of light having this wavelength in air is violet .
