Explanation:
<u>Mechanical Force</u>
According to the second Newton's law, the net force F exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:
F = m.a
Where a is the acceleration of the object.
Assume we apply some given force F to an object of m1=1 Kg that produces an acceleration , then:
F = m1.a1
The same force F is now applied to a second object m2=4 Kg that produces an acceleration a2, then:
F = m2.a2
Dividing both equations:
Solving for a2:
Substituting values:
Answer:
Explanation:
The resistance of a wire is given by:
where
is the resistivity of the material
L is the length of the wire
A is the cross-sectional area of the wire
1) The first wire has length L and cross-sectional area A. So, its resistance is:
2) The second wire has length twice the first one: 2L, and same thickness, A. So its resistance is
3) The third wire has length L (as the first one), but twice cross sectional area, 2A. So, its resistance is
By comparing the three expressions, we find
So, this is the ranking of the wire from most current (least resistance) to least current (most resistance).
