When the starter motor on a car is engaged, there is a 290 A current in the wires between the battery and the motor. Suppose the

wires are made of copper and have a total length of 1.5 m.What minimum diameter can the wires have if the voltage drop along the wires is to be less than 0.55 V?

Answer:

33.6\times10^{-4}}\text{ m} = 3.36 mm

Explanation:

From Ohm's law,

V = IR (Voltage = Current * Resistance)

R = \dfrac{V}{I}

The geometric definition of resistance is

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

where \rho is the resistivity of the material, l  and A are the length and cross-sectional area, respectively.

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

A = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}

Since the wire is assumed to have a circular cross-section, its area is given by

A = \pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} where d is the diameter.

\pi\dfrac{d^2}{4} = \rho\dfrac{l\timesI}{V}

d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{\pi\times V}}

Resistivity of copper = 1.68\times10^{-8}. With these and other given values,

d = \sqrt{\dfrac{4\times1.68\times10^{-8}\times1.5\times290}{3.14\times 0.55}}

d = \sqrt{1128.43\times10^{-8}}

d = 33.6\times10^{-4} \text{ m}

Match the type of boundary with its characteristic.
olga_2 [115]

At Divergent boundary, Crust is created.

At Convergent boundary, Crust is destroyed.

At Transform boundary, Crust is neither created nor destroyed.

<h3>What occurs at Divergent, Convergent and Transform boundary?</h3>

A divergent boundary occurs when two tectonic plates move away from each other. At this boundary, new oceanic crust is created.

Convergent boundaries are those boundaries where two plates are pushing into each other. These boundaries are pushing one of the plates under the other and back into the mantle to melt.

Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other. At this boundary, Crust is neither created nor destroyed.

Identify the number of atoms on the reactant side of the chemical equation.
klio [65]
Hi, I believe this should belongs to the chemistry section, but nevertheless here is the solution :

Number of Fe atoms: (2) + (2) =4
Number of O atoms. : (3)
Number of H atoms: (3 X 2)=6
Total atoms: 4+3+6=13 atoms
