The resistance of conductor is directly proportional to length and resistivity.

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation: </u>

Resistance is present in an electrical object or rather introduced to counter check the flow of the current. It is similar to the mechanical friction in the conceptualization of its existence and effect.  

It is directly proportional to the length of the electric circuit. It is being measured and noted in ohm. The formula for resistance is –

                              R=\rho \frac{l}{A}

Where,

R - the Resistance of the wire,  

\rho - the resistivity of the wire  

L - The length of the wire

A - the area of cross section of the wire

If I'm not mistaken the answer would be c, vibrations and wave phenomena, because when sound waves hit your ear they go through it to your brain and your mind translates these vibrations to sound. I hope my answer helped you out.

Select the correct answer
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

Mary's average speed is 0.42 meters/second.

Explanation:

Mary's total travel was 250 meters and the elapsed time was 10 minutes, equivalent to 600 seconds.

d = displacement = 80 meters + 125 meters + 45 meters = 250 meters                  

t = time = 10 minutes . 60 seconds/minute = 600 seconds

We can obtain now the average speed:

s = average speed = displacement / time = 250 meters / 600 seconds ≅ 0.4167 ≅ 0.42

Explain how we measure temperatures in our daily lives.
AnnyKZ [126]

Many devices have been invented to accurately measure temperature. It all started with the establishment of a temperature scale. This scale transformed the measurement of temperature into meaningful numbers.

In the early years of the eighteenth century, Gabriel Fahrenheit (1686-1736) created the Fahrenheit scale. He set the freezing point of water at 32 degrees and the boiling point at 212 degrees. These two points formed the anchors for his scale.


Later in that century, around 1743, Anders Celsius (1701-1744) invented the Celsius scale. Using the same anchor points, he determined the freezing temperature for water to be 0 degree and the boiling temperature 100 degrees. The Celsius scale is known as a Universal System Unit. It is used throughout science and in most countries.


There is a limit to how cold something can be. The Kelvin scale is designed to go to zero at this minimum temperature. The relationships between the different temperature scales are:



oK = 273.15 + oC        oC = (5/9)*(oF-32)        oF = (9/5)*oC+32


 oF oC oK

Water boils 212 100 373

Room Temperature 72 23 296

Water Freezes 32 0 273

Absolute Zero -460 -273 0

At a temperature of Absolute Zero there is no motion and no heat. Absolute zero is where all atomic and molecular motion stops and is the lowest temperature possible. Absolute Zero occurs at 0 degrees Kelvin or -273.15 degrees Celsius or at -460 degrees Fahrenheit. All objects emit thermal energy or heat unless they have a temperature of absolute zero.


If we want to understand what temperature means on the molecular level, we should remember that temperature is the average energy of the molecules that composes a substance. The atoms and molecules in a substance do not always travel at the same speed. This means that there is a range of energy (the energy of motion) among the molecules. In a gas, for example, the molecules are traveling in random directions at a variety of speeds - some are fast and some are slow. Sometimes these molecules collide with each other. When this happens the higher speed molecule transfers some of its energy to the slower molecule causing the slower molecule to speed up and the faster molecule to slow down. If more energy is put into the system, the average speed of the molecules will increase and more thermal energy or heat will be produced. So, higher temperatures mean a substance has higher average molecular motion. We do not feel or detect a bunch of different temperatures for each molecule which has a different speed. What we measure as the temperature is always related to the average speed of the molecules in a system

How energy is converted from one form to other
blagie [28]

Explanation:

Energy can be converted from one form to another. Examples: Gasoline (chemical) is put into our cars, and with the help of electrical energy from a battery, provides mechanical (kinetic) energy. ... Similarly, purchased electricity goes into an electric bulb and is converted to visible light and heat energy.

3. The velocity of sound is 332 m/s. Answer the following questions:
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

20 Hz, 20000 Hz

0.0166 m, 16.6 m

Explanation:

The minimum frequency that a human ear can hear is 20 Hz

The maximum frequency that a human ear can hear is 20000 Hz.

v = Velocity of sound = 332 m/s

Wavelength is given by

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=\dfrac{332}{20}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=16.6\ \text{m}

The longest wavelength that can be heard by the human ear is 16.6 m

\lambda=\dfrac{332}{20000}\\\Rightarrow \lambda=0.0166\ \text{m}

The shortest wavelength that can be heard by the human ear is 0.0166 m.
