Find the ratio of the diameter of iron to copper wire, if they have the same resistance per unit length (as they might in househ
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

The ratio of the diameter of iron to Cu is;

\frac{d{Fe}   }{ d{Cu}   } =\sqrt{\frac{p_{Fe} }{ p_{Cu} }}

Explanation:

R=(ρL)/A

  • R is resistance,
  • L is length,
  • A is area,
  • ρ is resistivity
  • d is diameter

from the question the two materials have the same resistance per unit length.

\frac{R}{L}= \frac{p}{A}

\frac{R}{L}   for iron = \frac{R}{L}  for copper

This means we can equate ρ/A for both materials.

\frac{p_{Fe} }{A_{Fe} } =\frac{p_{Cu} }{A_{Cu} }

re-arranging the equation we have,

\frac{A_{Fe}}{A_{Cu} } =\frac{p_{Fe} }{ p_{Cu} }

A=\pi \frac{d^{2} }{4}

\frac{A_{Fe}}{A_{Cu} } =\frac{d^{2}{Fe}   }{ d^{2}{Cu}   }

\frac{d^{2}{Fe}   }{ d^{2}{Cu}   } =\frac{p_{Fe} }{ p_{Cu} }

\frac{d{Fe}   }{ d{Cu}   } =\sqrt{\frac{p_{Fe} }{ p_{Cu} }}

What’s the velocity of a ball falling with 100 joules of kinetic energy and a mass of 2 kilograms
ohaa [14]

Answer:

the velocity is 10 m/s

Explanation:

Using the expression for kinetic energy we have:

Ek=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} \\\\Ek=100J\\m=2kg\\v=\sqrt{(2*100/2)}\\ v=10[m/s]

Two protons are released from rest, with only the electrostatic force acting. Which of the following statements must be true abo
ycow [4]

Answer:

(A)

Explanation:

We know , electric potential energy between two charge particles of charges "q" and "Q" respectively is given by kqQ/r where r is the distance between them.

Since the two charged particles are moving apart, the distance between them (r) increases and thus electrical potential energy decreases.

A professor, with dumbbells in his hands and holding his arms out, is spinning on a turntable with an angular velocity. What hap
Olenka [21]

Answer:

<em>His angular velocity will increase.</em>

Explanation:

According to the conservation of rotational momentum, the initial angular momentum of a system must be equal to the final angular momentum of the system.

The angular momentum of a system = I'ω'

where

I' is the initial rotational inertia

ω' is the initial angular velocity

the rotational inertia = mr'^{2}

where m is the mass of the system

and r' is the initial radius of rotation

Note that the professor does not change his position about the axis of rotation, so we are working relative to the dumbbells.

we can see that with the mass of the dumbbells remaining constant, if we reduce the radius of rotation of the dumbbells to r, the rotational inertia will reduce to I.

From

I'ω' = Iω

since I is now reduced, ω will be greater than ω'

therefore, the angular velocity increases.
