I am not sure whether this is the right way to go about answering the question.

The resistance of a wire is proportional to its length, therefore doubling the length should double the resistance. But resistance is also proportional to the inverse square of the wire's cross-sectional area, and stretching the wire seems to imply increasing its length and decreasing its cross-sectional area, which would increase the resistance more than simply increasing its length.

I'll just say to only care about the effect of increasing the wire's length. Due to the wire's length now being 2l, the new resistance is 2r.

Metals are used in many products because of the characteristic properties that most metals share. Which properties of the metal
Anastaziya [24]

The most important characteristics that are exhibited by metals are-

1- Metals are ductile

2-Most metals are conductive in nature.

3-Most metals are malleable.

4- Metals have strong inter molecular force of attraction between the.

5-Metals have luster.

6-Metals are sonorous.

Here we are given Tungsten filament.

Tungsten is  a metal.So it must be conductive and as well as ductile in nature.

The electric filament that we are using in our electric bulb glows due to the heating effect of current.Hence the chosen substances for glowing electric bulb must have high melting point.

The melting point of tungsten is 1650 degree celsius which is very high.That's why it is used in electric bulb.

Hence the correct answer to the question is the third one i.e Tungsten is ductile,has a high melting point, and is electrically conductive.

When the temperature of the air is 50°C, the velocity of a sound wave traveling through the air is approximately?
noname [10]

The answer is:

C. 361 m/s

The explanation:

To calculate  the speed of sound at a given temperature (50°C) we are going to use this formula:

v = 331 + 0.6T

when V is the velocity

and T is the temperature = 50°C

by substitution:

v = 331 + 0.6(50)

v = 361 m/s

So, The correct answer is C.

because of the variation of the motion of the molecules of air with change of temperature so, the velocity (V) of the  sound in the air is change with temperature.
