A resistor is made by winding a very long thin metal wire, insulated so adjacent coils do not touch. At room temperature, the re

sistance is 100 ohms.
If the resistor is then cooled to 77 K, the resistance:

A. changes only slightly, if at all.
B. increases significantly (more than a factor of two).
C. decreases significantly (more than a factor of 1/2).

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The correct answer is  Option A.

At room temperature, the resistance is equal to 100 ohms.

When the temperature is reduced to 77 K from room temperature, change in the resistance is very less.

The temperature coefficient of the resistivity of most of the metal is small for the metals which are approximately equal  0.01 /K.

hence, Change is only slightly.

Match the theory to the statement that best describes it. 1. big bang. 2. steady state. 3.osscillating universe. 4. inflation Ch
Gre4nikov [31]

Explanation :

(1) Big bang : (1) The most accepted theory on the origin of the universe.

This theory shows the expanding of the universe from high density and high-temperature states.

(2) Steady state : (3) All is the same and will always stay the same.

Steady state means that the properties of any system remain the same always.

(3) Oscillating universe : (4) Agrees with the big bang theory but insists the universe expanded much quicker.

Oscillating universe theory is the result of big bang theory.

(4) Inflation Choices : (2) it's like an inflating and deflating balloon that never stops.  

In cosmology, cosmic inflation or deflation is just the expanding and contraction of the universe.

So, the statements and the choices are related as:

               (1)-(1)

              (2)- (3)

               (3)-(4)

               (4)-(2)

When the force acting on the body equal to acceleration?
topjm [15]

Answer:

Acceleration and velocity Newton's second law says that when a constant force acts on a massive body, it causes it to accelerate, i.e., to change its velocity, at a constant rate. In the simplest case, a force applied to an object at rest causes it to accelerate in the direction of the force.

A cyclist going downhill is accelerating at 1.2 m/s2. If the final velocity of the cyclist is 16 m/s after 10 seconds, what is t
Blababa [14]

Answer:

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

Explanation:

What is acceleration?

It is the change in velocity with respect to time, or the rate of change of velocity.

We can write this as:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}

Where

a is the acceleration

v is velocity

t is time

\Delta  is "change in"

For this problem , we are given

a = 1.2

t = 10

Putting into formula, we get:

a=\frac{\Delta v}{t}\\1.2=\frac{\Delta v}{10}\\\Delta v = 1.2*10\\\Delta v = 12

So, the change in velocity is 12 m/s

The change in velocity can also be written as:

\Delta v = Final  \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity

It is given Final Velocity = 16, so we put it into formula and find Initial Velocity. Shown Below:

\Delta v = Final  \ Velocity - Initial \ Velocity\\12=16-Initial \ Velocity\\Initial \ Velocity = 16 - 12 = 4

hence,

Initial Velocity is 4 m/s

KIIS FM broadcasts at 102.7 MHz, what is the wavelength of that radio wave?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

2.92 m

Explanation:

As we know, frequency × Wavelength = Speed of light

so here frequency of 102.7 MHz can be written as 102.7× 10⁶ Hz..

So Lambda (wavelength) = 3×10⁸/ 102.7 × 10⁶ which gives 2.92 metres or 2.92 × 10¹⁰ Å
