Answer: D

Explanation: Resistance of current in a wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire and inversely proportional to the cross - sectional area of the wire. That is,

R = (rho × L)/A

Where

L = length of the wire

A = cross sectional Area of the wire

rho = resistivity = proportionality constant which depends on the quality of the wire.

Therefore, Resistance and resistivity are related by a:

proportionality constant dependent on the identity of the material.

You place a point charge q = -4.00 nC a distance of 9.00 cm from an infinitely long, thin wire that has linear charge density 3.

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Explanation:

Given:

quantity of point charge, $q=-4\times 10^{-9}\ C$

radial distance from the linear charge, $r=0.09\ m$

linear charge density, $\lambda=3\times 10^{-9}\ C.m^{-1}$

<u>We know that the electric field by the linear charge is given as:</u>

$E=\frac{\lambda}{2\pi.\epsilon_0.r}$

$E=\frac{1}{2}\times 9\times 10^9\times \frac{3\times10^{-9}}{0.09}$

$E=150\ N.C^{-1}$

<u>Now the force on the given charge can be given as:</u>

$F=E.q$

$F=150\times 4\times 10^{-9}$

$F=6\times 10^{-7}\ N$

Feng and Isaac are riding on a merry-ground. Feng rides on a horse at the outer rim of the circular platform, twice as far from

kogti [31]

Answer: The question is incomplete or missing details. here is the remaining part of the question ;

1. impossible to determine

2. half of Isaac’s

3. the same as Isaac’s

4. twice Isaac’s

The angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac. Hence the answer is option 3

Explanation:

Since we have been told that both feng and isaac are riding on a merry go round i.e in a circular motion, irrespective of how fast one ride above the other, the angular speed will be constant since they are riding on a merry go round, as such both feng and isaac will maintain equal angular speed, hence the angular speed of feng will be the same as that of Isaac.

2 ways to change frictional force between 2 objects

Zanzabum

In order to change the frictional force between two solid surfaces, it can be changed by shorter distances and by the amount of weight it has or the amount of force that is pushing that object to go however distance it can.

Before the experiment, the total momentum of the system is 2.5 kg m/s to the right and the kinetic energy is 5J. After the exper

finlep [7]

Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

Elastic collision is defined as a collision where the kinetic energy of the system remains same. Both linear momentum and kinetic energy are conserved in case of an elastic collision.

Inelastic collision is defined as a collision where kinetic energy of the system is not conserved whereas the linear momentum is conserved. This loss of kinetic energy may due to the conversion to thermal energy or sound energy or may be due to the deformation of the materials colliding with each other.

As given in the problem, before the collision, total momentum of the system is $2.5~Kg~m~s^{-1}$ and the kinetic energy is $5~J$ . After the collision, the total momentum of the system is $2.5~Kg~m~s^{-1}$ , but the kinetic energy is reduced to $4~J$ . So some amount of kinetic energy is lost during the collision.

Therefor the situation describes an inelastic collision (and it could NOT be elastic).
