Momentum = (mass) x (speed)
Momentum = (70 kg) x (10 m/s)
<em>Momentum = 700 kg-m/s</em>
R is proportional to the length of the wire:
R ∝ length
R is also proportional to the inverse square of the diameter:
R ∝ 1/diameter²
The resistance of a wire 2700ft long with a diameter of 0.26in is 9850Ω. Now let's change the shape of the wire, adding and subtracting material as we go along, such that the wire is now 2800ft and has a diameter of 0.1in.
Calculate the scale factor due to the changed length:
k₁ = 2800/2700 = 1.037
Scale factor due to changed diameter:
k₂ = 1/(0.1/0.26)² = 6.76
Multiply the original resistance by these factors to get the new resistance:
R = R₀k₁k₂
R₀ = 9850Ω, k₁ = 1.037, k₂ = 6.76
R = 9850(1.037)(6.76)
R = 69049.682Ω
Round to the nearest hundredth:
R = 69049.68Ω
Answer:
Distance will decrease and work will decrease:
F = m a Newton's Second Law
a = F / m decreasing force will decrease acceleration
S = 1/2 a t^2 = 1/2 (F / m) t^2 distance traveled will decrease as force decreases
W = F * S work will decrease as both force and distance decrease
Enclosed is some guidance algebra.I find this q a little confusing. It quotes "RC" which usually makes me think of electrical circuits and time constants based on converting calculating RC value and equating that to t for one time constant then 2RC for two time constants etc. The theory being that after 5 time constants - 5RC - a circuit is stable. BUT, this q then goes on to mention HALF LIFE. The curves for both half life and time constant are both exponential, as in the number e to the power of something, but the algebra is slightly different. I hope my algebra is ok.
