Answer:

a. Both wires have the same resistivity

Explanation:

For the resistance of a wire , following formula holds good .

R = ρ l / S , R is resistance , l is length , S is cross sectional area and ρ is resistivity of the material that the wire is made of. Resistance is dependent on length and cross sectional area but resistivity does not depend upon length or cross sectional area . It only depends upon the type of material.

If we replace  copper wire with aluminium wire , then resistivity will change .

Hence , since the wire remains made of copper , resistivity will not change.

Why do you see colors when you look at reflected light from a cd
Nady [450]
The colors that you see on the CD are created by white light reflecting from ridges in the metal. When light reflects off or passes through something with many small ridges or scratches, you often get rainbow colors and interesting patterns. They are called interference patterns.

I could use math to help with baking and measuring how much I should use for a cake or stuff like that, they also show us how to add our money together to help us with stuff.
Math, is helpful with many jobs, stuff learned in school can help you strategize and school also makes you think outside of the box sometimes, which can help with jobs. Also if you want to do a career with fashion designing or engineering, you can use math for that too. School also gives you the ability to read.

When driving at night, only use your high-beam headlights___
zzz [600]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

While answer C may sound correct, Answer B is makes more sense. We know you cant use High-beam lights when u cant see ongoing traffic because it could affect the other driver coming across from you. Its good to use it when legal and safe, but in that term I still don't believe there's no reason for HIGH-beamed. That's this leaves B, when you are on u lighted streets.
