Answer:

A. It will increase

Explanation:

Area of a wire is:

R = ρL/A

where ρ is the resistivity of the wire,

L is the length of the wire,

and A is the cross-sectional area.

If A decreases, while ρ and L stay the same, then R will increase.

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

Answer is 183.6 J

Explanation:

Using the Physics reference sheet the formula for Potential energy is

(mass) x (gravity) x (height)

Mass= 1.2

Gravity I used is 9.81 (use 10 to get the answer most schools use)

Height= 15.6

A satellite of mass m is moving in a circular orbit around the earth at a constant speed v and at an altitude h above the earth'
qwelly [4]

The satellite executes a rotation motion around the earth, because Earth's force of attraction plays the role of centripetal force:

Fa=Fcp=>k*Mp*m/(Rp+r)²=mv²/(Rp+r)=>v=√(k*Mp/(Rp+r))=√(6.67*10⁻¹¹*5.98*10²⁴/(6371*10³+1000*10³))=√(39.88*10¹³/(7371*10³))=√(5.41*10⁷)=7355.53 m/s
