Answer:
8.333*10^-6 ohms
Explanation:
Resistivity of a material is expressed as;
p = RA/l
R is the resistance of the material
A is the cross sectional area
l is the length of the material
Given
R = 5 ohms
A = 0.5mm^2
A = 5 * 10^-7m^2
l = 30cm = 0.3m
Substitute into the formula;
p = (5 * 5 * 10^-7m^2)/0.3
p = 25 * 10^-7/0.3
p = 0.0000025/0.3
p = 8.333*10^-6
Hence its resistivity at 20 degrees Celsius is 8.333*10^-6 ohms
Let us say that x is the cut that we will make on the
sides to make a box, therefore the new dimensions are:
l = 15 – 2x
w = 8 – 2x
It is 2x since we cut on two sides.
We know that volume is:
V = l w x
V = (15 – 2x) (8 – 2x) x
V = 120x – 30x^2 – 16x^2 + 4x^3
V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3
Taking the 1st derivative:
dV/dx = 120 – 92x + 12x^2
Set dV/dx = 0 to get maxima:
120 – 92x + 12x^2 = 0
Divide by 12:
x^2 – (92/12)x + 10 = 0
(x – (92/24))^2 = -10 + (92/24)^2
x - 92/24 = ±2.17
x = 1.66, 6
We cannot have x = 6 because that will make our w
negative, so:
x = 1.66 inches
So the largest volume is:
V = 120x – 46x^2 + 4x^3
V = 120(1.66) – 46(1.66)^2 + 4(1.66)^3
V = 90.74 cubic inches
Answer:
They are able to balance torques due to gravity.

Explanation:
When two friends of different masses will balance themselves on see saw then at equilibrium position the see saw will remain horizontal
This condition will be torque equilibrium position where the see saw will not rotate
Here we can say

here we know that force is due to weight of two friends
and their positions are different with respect to the lever about which see saw is rotating
since both friends are of different weight so they will balance themselves are different positions as per above equation
Answer: In that case, Put something like "My hypothesis is that the car will take (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 1, (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 2, (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 3, and (x) seconds to get to checkpoint 4" Replacing x with random numbers, or number close to the actual found numbers, but honestly as long as the guesses arent outrageous you should get the question right
