You are given a copper bar of dimensions 3 cm × 5 cm × 8 cm and asked to attach leads to it in order to make a resistor. (a) If

you want to achieve the SMALLEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure A) 3 cm × 5 cm. B) 3 cm × 8 cm. C) 5 cm × 8 cm. D) Any pair of faces produces the same resistance. (b) If you want to achieve the LARGEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure A) 3 cm × 5 cm. B) 3 cm × 8 cm. C) 5 cm × 8 cm. D) Any pair of faces produces the same resistance.

Answer:

A) If you want to achieve the SMALLEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure b) 5 cm by 8 cm.

B) If you want to achieve the LARGEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure a) 3 cm × 5 cm

Explanation:

Resistivity is directly proportional to lenght and inversely properly to cross sectional area.

For the first case, 5 cm by 8 cm gives the largest area and leave 3 cm as the lenght. The resistivity of the metal will be smallest in these dimensions.

For the second case, 3 cm by 5 cm gives the smallest area, leaving 8 cm as the lenght. This is the maximum arrangement that can give the largest resistance possible.

Q1:A large tank is filled with water. The pressure on the base of the fish tank is 4000N/m². The base of the tank is a rectangle
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

F = 36 kN

Explanation:

It is given that,

The pressure on the base of the fish tank is 4000N/m².

The base of the tank is a rectangle measuring 2.0m by 4.5m.

Area of the base of the tank is 9 m²

We need to find the force on the base caused by the base of the water. Pressure on the base of the tank is given by the force acting per unit area such that,

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\F=P\times A\\\\F=4000\times 9\\\\F=36000\ N\\\\F=36\ kN

So, the force of 36 kN is acting on the base by the base of water.

Dr. Wolski does research on the potential relationship between neurotransmitter deficiencies and mood states. Which psychologica
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Bio psychology

Explanation:

Since, Dr. Wolski does research on the potential relationship between neurotransmitter deficiencies and mood states. His psychological specialty must be biological psychology.

Biological psychology, or bio psychology, is a discipline in which scientific investigation and clinical practice investigates the relation between brain and body. In this area scholars evaluate the biological basis of feelings, impulses and behaviors.

N2 + 3H2 mc033-1.jpg 2NH3
Svetradugi [14.3K]

N2+3H2->2NH3

When 3 moles of H2 react, they produce 2 moles of NH3

3 moles of H2 have a mass of 2.02 g

2 moles of NH2 have a mass of 17.0 g

So when 2.02 g H2 react, they produce 17.0 g NH3

If 26.3g H2 react with a yield of 100%, we expect…

2.02g H2_____17.0gNH3

26.3g H2_____x=221gNH3

So now let’s calculate the percentage:

221gNH3­­­­­­­­_________100%

79.0gNH3_________x=79.0*100/221=35.7%

A 16.0 m long, thin, uniform metal rod slides north at a speed of 21.0 m/s. The length of the rod maintains an east-west orienta
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

14.112 mV

Explanation:

L = 16 m, v = 21 m/s, B = 42 μ T = 42 x 10^-6 T

The formula for the induced emf is given by

e = B x v x L

e = 42 x 10^-6 x 21 x 16 = 14.112 x 10^-3 V = 14.112 mV

Thus, the induce emf is 14.112 mV.

A student is measuring the volumes of nectar produced by a flowering plant for an experiment. He measures nectar from 50 flowers
pantera1 [17]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A student is measuring the volumes of nectar produced by a flowering plant for an experiment. He measures nectar from 50 flowers using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest millilitre (mL). Which statement describes a change that can help improve the results of his experiment?

A.) His measurements will be more precise if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers. B.) His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. C.) His measurements will be more precise if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL. D.) His measurements will be more accurate if he takes measurements from an additional 100 flowers.

Answer:

His measurements will be more accurate if he uses a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL.

Explanation:

In the measurements of volume using most graduated cylinders, the cylinders are calibrated to the nearest tenth owing to the uncertainty in the measurement of volume.

Hence if a cylinder has measures to the nearest milliliter(mL), then he can improve his experiment by using a graduated cylinder that measures to the nearest tenth of a mL
