I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The air traffic controller is describing the airplane's velocity. Velocity<span> is a physical vector quantity; both magnitude and direction are needed to define it. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

The correct answer for this is B. Velocity. To find velocity you need the speed and direction, what we have. Sorry for the wait, Good luck :)

A carbon rod with a radius of 1.9 mm is used to make a resistor. What length of the carbon rod should be used to make a 3.7 Ω re
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Length = 2.32 m

Explanation:

Let the length required be 'L'.

Given:

Resistance of the resistor (R) = 3.7 Ω

Radius of the rod (r) = 1.9 mm = 0.0019 m [1 mm = 0.001 m]

Resistivity of the material of rod (ρ) = 1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m

First, let us find the area of the circular rod.

Area is given as:

A=\pi r^2=3.14\times (0.0019)^2=1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2

Now, the resistance of the material is given by the formula:

R=\rho( \frac{L}{A})

Express this in terms of 'L'. This gives,

\rho\times L=R\times A\\\\L=\frac{R\times A}{\rho}

Now, plug in the given values and solve for length 'L'. This gives,

L=\frac{3.7\ \Omega\times 1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2}{1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m}\\\\L=\frac{4.181}{1.8}=2.32\ m

Therefore, the length of the material required to make a resistor of 3.7 Ω is 2.32 m.

lora16 [44]
Mercury is very harmful to the average human being. the mercury can easily be released from the lamp if the lamp is knocked over and broken. mercury is also harmful if inhaled. sodium on the other hand is not harmful in any way.

Deffense [45]
The answer is D using the work formula
W= F•d but if it was against gravity, it would be 0 if gravity is exerting the same amount, I would pick D using the formula, but I'm not so sure sorry

A 0.150-kg cart that is attached to an ideal spring with a force constant (spring constant) of 3.58 N/m undergoes simple harmoni
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

E = 0.01 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 0.15 kg

The force constant of the spring, k = 3.58 N/m

The amplitude of the oscillations, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

We need to find the total mechanical energy of the system. It can be given by the formula as follows :

E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

Put all the values,

E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.58\times (0.075)^2\\\\=0.01\ J

So, the value of total mechanical energy is equal to 0.01 J.
