R = 0.407Ω.

The resistance  R of a particular conductor is related to the resistivity ρ of the material by  the equation R = ρL/A, where ρ is the material resistivity, L is the length of the material and A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the material.

To calculate the resistance R of a wire made of a material with resistivity of 3.2x10⁻⁸Ω.m, the length of the wire is 2.5m and its diameter is 0.50mm.

We have to use the equation R = ρL/A but first we have to calculate the cross-sectional area of the wire which is a circle. So, the area of a circle is given by A = πr², with r = d/2. The cross-sectional area of the wire is A = πd²/4.  Then:

R =[(3.2x10⁻⁸Ω.m)(2.5m)]/[π(0.5x10⁻³m)²/4]

R = 8x10⁻⁸Ω.m²/1.96x10⁻⁷m²

R = 0.407Ω

There are many interesting applications of our energy density model to the flow of blood in the human circulatory system. One in
qaws [65]

Answer:

Pressure increases due to enlargement

Explanation:

Energy density is just a fancy name for pressure

Pressure is same at the bottom of the cups (same level-Pascal's law)

thus, Air pressure 1 + h1d1g = Air pressure 2 + h2d1g

= Air pressure 3 + (h2-h1)d2g +h1d1g

from the first 2, we get that since h2>h1, AP2<AP1

from the next 2, we get that since d2<d1, AP3>AP2

from first and third, we get that AP1>AP3

thus, finally AP1>AP3>AP2

for fluids flowing in tubes (blood vessel in this case)

P+0.5dv^2 + gh is constant (also called the bernoulli equation

for the same blood vessel, the heights remain same i.e h1=h2

for same flow rate, inc in area decreases the speed at which the blood flows as vA must remain same

hence, P increases due to enlargement

A ray of yellow light (f = 5.09 × 1014hz) travels at a speed of 2.04 × 108meters per second in
denis23 [38]
Velocity = fλ

where f is frequency in Hz, and λ is wavelength in meters.

2.04 * 10⁸ m/s =  5.09 * 10¹⁴  Hz   *  λ

(2.04 * 10⁸ m/s) / (5.09 * 10¹⁴  Hz ) = λ

4.007*10⁻⁷  m =  λ

The wavelength of the yellow light = 4.007*10⁻⁷  m
