Two insulated copper wires of similar overall diameter have very different interiors. One wire possesses a solid core of copper,

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

a

Solid Wire $I = 0.01237 \ A$

Stranded Wire $I_2 = 0.00978 \ A$

b

Solid Wire $R = 0.0149 \ \Omega$

Stranded Wire $R_1 = 0.0189 \ \Omega$

Explanation:

Considering the first question

From the question we are told that

The radius of the first wire is $r_1 = 1.53 mm = 0.0015 \ m$

The radius of each strand is $r_0 = 0.306 \ mm = 0.000306 \ m$

The current density in both wires is $J = 1750 \ A/m^2$

Considering the first wire

The cross-sectional area of the first wire is

$A = \pi r^2$

= > $A = 3.142 * (0.0015)^2$

= > $A = 7.0695 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

Generally the current in the first wire is

$I = J*A$

=> $I = 1750*7.0695 *10^{-6}$

=> $I = 0.01237 \ A$

Considering the second wire wire

The cross-sectional area of the second wire is

$A_1 = 19 * \pi r^2$

=> $A_1 = 19 *3.142 * (0.000306)^2$

=> $A_1 = 5.5899 *10^{-6} \ m^2$

Generally the current is

$I_2 = J * A_1$

=> $I_2 = 1750 * 5.5899 *10^{-6}$

=> $I_2 = 0.00978 \ A$

Considering question two

From the question we are told that

Resistivity is $\rho = 1.69* 10^{-8} \Omega \cdot m$

The length of each wire is $l = 6.25 \ m$

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

$R = \frac{\rho * l }{A}$

=> $R = \frac{ 1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{ 7.0695 *10^{-6} }$

=> $R = 0.0149 \ \Omega$

Generally the resistance of the first wire is mathematically represented as

$R_1 = \frac{\rho * l }{A_1}$

=> $R_1 = \frac{ 1.69* 10^{-8} * 6.25 }{5.5899 *10^{-6} }$

=> $R_1 = 0.0189 \ \Omega$

The fatty layer contains many nerves and blood vessels. True or False

mylen [45]

Answer:

False , The fatty layer do not contains many nerves and blood vessels. The fatty layer is related to skin layers.

Explanation:

The fatty layer is the most under a layer of skin. It made up of a system of collagen and fat cells. It helps maintain the body's temperature and shields the body from harm by serving as a shock absorber.

The dermis is the central layer of the skin. The dermis is maintained collectively by a protein termed collagen. This layer gives skin elasticity and power. The dermis also holds shock and feel receptors.

When you are on a roller coaster, you are constantly transforming from Potential to Kinetic energy and back. Explain how these e

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The two types of energy possessed by the roller coaster are:

- Potential energy: it is the energy possessed by the roller coaster due to its position. It is calculated as

$PE=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the roller coaster

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the roller coaster relative to the ground

- KInetic energy: it is the energy possessed by the roller coaster due to its motion. It is calculated as

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

v is the speed of the roller coaster

Moreover, according to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster (the sum of potential+kinetic energy) is constant during the motion:

$E=PE+KE=const.$

This implies that:

- When PE increases (because h increases), KE decreases (because v decreases)

- When PE decreases (because h decreases), KE increases (because v increases)

Now we can apply these conclusions to the motion of the roller coaster:

- When it moves from A to B, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so PE decreases and KE increases

- When it moves from B to C, kinetic energy is converted into potential energy, so PE increases and KE decreases

- When it moves from C to D, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so PE decreases and KE increases

- When it moves from D to E, kinetic energy is converted into potential energy, so PE increases and KE decreases

What is a sedimentary, igneous, and a metamorphic rock?

Tanya [424]

Answer:

Igneous rock , formed by the cooling of magma (molten rock) inside the Earth or on the surface. Sedimentary rocks, formed from the products of weathering by cementation or precipitation on the Earth's surface. Metamorphic rocks, formed by temperature and pressure changes inside the Earth.
