A tungsten wire has resistance R at 20°C. A second tungsten wire at 20°C has twice the length and half the cross-sectional area

of the first wire. In terms of R, the resistance of the second wire is
(1)R/2
(2)2R
(3)R
(4)4R

The resistance is 4 times the resistance of the first wire. the formula is R = p*l/A with p being resistivity, l length and A area. So if you double length and half area, which botv result in more resistance, you get p*2/0.5 or 4 (p can be abandoned because it is the same. We take standard length and area as 1)

Jeff's body contains about 5.46 L of blood that has a density of 1060 kg/m3. Approximately 45.0% (by mass) of the blood is cells

barxatty [35]

Answer:

a

The mass of blood is $m= 5.7876kg$

b

The number of blood cells is $N_t=1.04*10^{13}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The volume of blood is $V_b = 5.46 \ L = \frac{5.46}{1000} = 0.00546m^3$

The density of the blood is $\rho_b = 1060 kg/m^3$

% of blood that is cell is = 45.0%

% of the blood that is plasma is = 55.0%

density of blood cell is $\rho_d = 1125kg/m^3$

% of cell that are white is = 1%

% of cell that is red is = 99%

The diameter of the red blood cell is = $7.5 \mu m = 7.5*10^{-6}m$

The radius of the red blood cell is $= \frac{7.5*10^{-6}}{2} = 3.75*10^{-6}m$

Generally the mass is mathematically represented as

$m = \rho_b * V_b$

Substituting value

$m = 1060 * 0.00546$

$m= 5.7876kg$

Mass of cell is $m_c$ = 45% of m

= 0.45 * 5,7876

= 2.60442 kg

The volume of cells is $V_c$ = $\frac{m_c}{\rho_d}$

$= \frac{2.60442}{1125}$

$= 2.315 *10^{-3} m^3$

The volume of white blood cell is $V_w$ = 1% of volume of cells

$= \frac{1}{100} * 2.315*10^{-3}$

$= 2.315*10^{-5}m^3$

The volume of a single cell is $V_s = 4 \pi r^3$

$= 4*(3.142) * (3.75*10^{-6})^3$

$= 2.21*10^{-16}m^3$

The volume of red blood cells is $V_r = V_c - V_w$

$=2.315*10^{-3} - 2.315*10^{-5}$

$= 2.29*10^{-3}m^3$

The number of red blood cell is $= \frac{V_r}{V_s}$

$= \frac{2.29 *10^{-3}}{2.21*10^{-16}}$

$= 1.037*10^{13}$

The Number of white blood cell is $=\frac{V_w}{V_s}$

$= \frac{2.315 * 10^{-5}}{2.21*10^{-16}}$

$= 1.04*10^{11}$

The total number of blood cells is $N_t= 1.037*10^{13} + 1.04*10^{11}$

$N_t=1.04*10^{13}$

All stars go through a lifecycle.

Komok [63]

Mira is much bigger than the Sun.

Only very massive stars will go through a supernova stage, causing the outer layer to explode away and the core to collapse in on itself, becoming very dense.

Two students make the following claims:

antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

E. Student 1 is correct, because as θ is increased, h is the same.

Explanation:

Here we have the object of a certain mass falling under gravity so the force acting on the it will depend on mass of the object and the acceleration due to gravity.

Mathematically:

$F=m.g$

As we know that the work done is evaluated as the force applied on a body and the displacement of the body in the direction of the force.

And for work we have:

$W=F.s\cos\theta$

where:

$s=$ displacement of the object

$\theta=$ angle between the force and displacement vectors

Given that the height of the object is same in each trail of falling object under the gravity be it a free-fall or the incline plane.

In case of free-fall the angle between the force is and the displacement is zero.
In case when the body moves along the inclined plane the force applied by the gravity is same because it depends upon the mass of the object. And the net displacement in the direction of the gravitational force is the height of the object which is constant in both the cases.

So, the work done by the gravitational force is same in the two cases.
