Suppose a rectangular piece of aluminum has a length D, and its square cross section has the dimensions W XW, where D (W x W) to

that between the large faces (D x L.) 2W. What is the ratio of the resistance as measured between the small faces (WxW) to that between the large faces (DxL)?

Answer:

R₂ / R₁ = D / L

Explanation:

The resistance of a metal is

        R = ρ L / A

Where ρ is the resistivity of aluminum, L is the length of the resistance and A its cross section

We apply this formal to both configurations

Small face measurements (W W)

The length is

         L = W

Area  

         A = W W = W²

        R₁ = ρ W / W² = ρ / W

Large face measurements (D L)

       Length L = D= 2W

       Area     A = W L

     R₂ = ρ D / WL = ρ 2W / W L = 2 ρ/L

The relationship is

    R₂ / R₁ = 2W²/L

In my opinion I would say all of the above; because people's job depends on where they live or how their environment is. The way they travel is also affected because we can't travel by car through water and can't use a boat in land. Free time as well because people like to travel and or just stay at home depending on the weather which is part of earths features.

Elements that easily transmit electricity and heat display the property known as conductivity.
Musya8 [376]


True.

Conductivity is the ability to transmit heat, electricity or sound. Conductivity is a physical property.

A physical property is one which can be measured  or observed without changing the composition or identity of a the substance.

Conductivity is a physical property because the composition of the substance does not change.

A copper wire is still  a copper wire when it is conducting electricity. Like wise, an aluminum rod is still an aluminum rod when heated. It is conducting heat but the heat does not change it, it is still  an aluminum rod during the whole process.
