The resistance of a wire depends upon the material's resistivity and the length and cross‑sectional area of the wire. What will

happen to the resistance of a wire if its length is multiplied by 4?

Answer:

R' = 4R

The resistance will become 4 times the initial value.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire at room temperature, is given by the following formula:

R = ρL/A   ----------- equation 1

where,

R = Resistance of wire

ρ = resistivity of the material

L = Length of wire

A = Cross-sectional area of wire

Now, if the length (L) is multiplied by 4, then resistance will become:

R' = ρ(4L)/A

R' = 4 (ρL/A)

using equation 1:

<u>R' = 4R</u>

<u>The resistance will become 4 times the initial value.</u>

A piece of aluminum foil has a known surface density of
bija089 [108]

The cube has 6 equal, square, foil faces. The mass of foil for each face is (380/6) milligrams.

The surface area of each piece is (380)/(6•11) cm^2.

The length of each side of the piece is √(380/6•11) cm

That's about 2.4 cm .

It's a cute little foil cube, just under 1-inch each way.

A bike accelerates uniformly(from rest to a speed of 7 m/s over a distance of 40 m. Determine
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

0.61 m/s^2

Explanation:

The bike's acceleration can be found by using the following suvat equation:

v^2-u^2=2as

where

v is the final velocity of the bike

u is the initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s is the distance covered

For the bike in the problem,

u = 0

v = 7 m/s

d = 40 m

Solving the equation for a, we find the acceleration:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{7^2-0}{2(40)}=0.61 m/s^2

Answer:

Mount Rushmore is a very well built sculpture. It is visited by millions of people each year to see 60-foot tall images of the American presidents; George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and Theodore Rosevelt which are carved into the Black Hills of South Dakota. Mount Rushmore has faced many controversies too. The land it was built on is sacred to Native Americans. The Sioux were also forced to leave the land, after lots of battles

Is the temperature and density of Earth's crust high or low? Why?
Setler [38]

Answer:

The crust is the first layer of the earth. It is split up into two parts the continental crust, and the oceanic crust. The oceanic crust takes up 71% of the earths crust, and the other 29% of the crust is continental. The continental is made up of igneous rocks, and the oceanic crust is made up of sedimentary and basalt rocks. The continental crust is older than the oceanic crust, some of the rocks are 3.9 billion years old. The density average of the oceanic crust is 3g/cm. The average density of the continental earth is 2.7g/cm. The temperature of the crust is around 200-400 degrees Celsius. The crust is about 60 km thick under a continent and 5 km thick under the ocean. The crust is constantly moving.  The crust doesn't even make up 1% of the earth!  The crust is the layer were tectonic plates can be found.
