Answer:

a) I = 13.156 A

b) V = 3.78 V

c) R = 0.2873 Ω

Explanation:

The diameter(d) of the wire is 0.87 mm = 0.87 × 10⁻³ m.

The electric field(E) = 0.54 V/m

The cross sectional area(A) = πd²/4 = π × (0.87 × 10⁻³)² /4 = 5.945 × 10⁺⁷ m²

Gold resistivity(ρ) = 2.44 × 10⁻⁸

(a) the current carried by the wire

E = Jρ

Where J is the current density = I/A and I is the current

E = Iρ/A

I = EA/ρ

Substituting values:

I = 0.54 × 5.945 × 10⁺⁷/  2.44 × 10⁻⁸ = 13.156 A

(b) the potential difference between two points in the wire 7.0 m apart

The potential difference(V) = EL

Where L is the length = 7 m

V = EL

Substituting values:

V = 0.54 × 7 = 3.78 V

(c) the resistance of a 7.0-m length of this wire

The resistance(R) = ρL/A

R =  ρL/A

Substituting values:

R = 2.44 × 10⁻⁸ × 7 /  5.945 × 10⁺⁷ = 0.2873 Ω

When you are sitting a few feet from a fire, your skin feels warm. What forms of heat transfer are acting to transfer heat from
algol [13]
<span>In the question,' when you are sitting a few feet from the fire, your skin feels warmed. What form of heat transfer are acting to transfer heat from the fire to your skin, the correct option is A, that is, convection and radiation. Heat transfer is defined as the exchange of thermal energy between physical systems. The rate at which the heat is transfer depends on the temprature of the system and the properties of the intervening medium through which the heat is been transfered. There are three basic modes of heat transfer, these are: conduction, convection and radiation. Conduction is defined as the transfer of heat between two bodies through physical contact. When two bodies which have different temprature come in contact, there will be a transfer of heat energy between them until the two of them have the same temprature. Conduction usually occurs in solids and liquids; it occurs in gases also but it is extremely slow. Convection is the process by which heat is transfer in fluids, that is, liquids and gases. This is how convection operates: when a fluid is heated, it expands and it becomes lighter, this makes it to rise upward and move to the cooler part of the container, as it rises, it will be replaced by the unheated surrounding particles. This cycle continues until heat is evenly distributed all through the fluid. There are two types of convection: natural and forced convection. The heating of the earth surface by the sun ray is an example of natural convection while the air conditioner we use at home operates by mean of forced convection. Both conduction and convection require matter for heat transfer. Radiation is the transfer of heat from one place to another through electromagnetic waves. The hot body transfer heat by emitting electromagnetic waves. The properties of the electromagnetic waves depend on the temperature of the body. The higher the temperature the more intense the rate of emission of radiation. Radiation can occur in all objects and does not require matter for heat transfer. The heat of the sun reaches the earth surface by means of radiation. In the question given, as the air surrounding the fire were heated they rise and were replaced by the unheated air particles. The continuation of this cycle makes the heat energy to be transferred to the objects around. Thus, the heat from the fire was transferred via convection and radiation. </span>

A man wishes to lift a stone weighing 1440 N, using a first-class lever that measures 5 meters. What force should it perform if
Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

3360 N

Explanation:

In a first-class lever, the effort force and load force are on opposite sides of the fulcrum.

The lever is 5 m long.  The load force is 1.50 m from the fulcrum, so the effort force must be 3.50 m from the fulcrum.

The torques are equal:

Fr = Fr

(1440 N) (3.5 m) = F (1.5 m)

F = 3360 N

What is the wavelength of a sound wave<br> with a speed of 331 m/s and a frequency<br> of 500 Hz?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

0.777m

Explanation:

The sound wave has a wavelength of 0.773m.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to use the wave equation that is given below:

We know the frequency and the velocity, both of which have good units. All we have to do is rearrange the equation and solve for  

λ :

λ = v f

Let's plug in our given values and see what we get!

λ = 340 m s

440 s − 1

λ = 0.773 m

Hope this helps, Mark as brainliest if u want
