A rear window defroster consists of a long, flat wire bonded to the inside surface of the window. When current passes through th

e wire, it heats up and melts ice and snow on the window. For one window the wire has a total length of 12.0 m, a width of 1.8 mm, and a thickness of 0.12 mm. The wire is connected to the car's 12.0 V battery and draws 12.0 A. What is the resistivity of the wire material?

Answer:

\rho=1.8\times 10^{-8}\Omega.m

Explanation:

Given:

width of the wire, w=1.8\ mm=1.8\times 10^{-3}\ m

thickness of the flat wire, d=0.12\ mm=1.2\times 10^{-4}

length of the wire, l=12\ m

voltage across the wire, V=12\ V

current through the wire, I=12\ A

Now the net resistance of the wire:

using ohm's law

R=\frac{V}{I}

R=\frac{12}{12}

R=1\ \Omega

We have the relation between the resistivity and the resistance as:

R=\rho.\frac{l}{a}

where:

a = cross sectional area of the wire

\rho = resistivity of the wire material

1=\rho\times \frac{12}{1.8\times 10^{-3}\times 1.2\times 10^{-4}}

\rho=1.8\times 10^{-8}\Omega.m

Answer:

Most of UV radiation is stopped by glass & this is why you will not get sunburns behind a glass. The glass simply filters out the UV radiation that is responsible for the sunburns & protect your skins from these energetic & somewhat harmful radiation

You breathe in more oxygen than you breathe out. And you breathe out more carbon dioxide than you breathe in.
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

B. chemical only.

Explanation:

In the process of respiration which is a chemical process where organic compound is released. In this process exergonic reaction takes place in which compound changes into different ones.

Following are the two types of respiration:-

1] Aerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration requirement of oxygen is more and energy released is more.

2] Anaerobic respiration:- In this type of respiration oxygen requirement is less and energy released is also less.

You need to determine the density of a ceramic statue. If you suspend it from a spring scale, the scale reads 28.4 NN . If you t
shtirl [24]

Answer:

2491.23 kg/m³

Explanation:

From Archimedes principle,

R.d = weight of object in air/ upthrust in water = density of the object/density of water

⇒ W/U = D/D' ....................... Equation 1

Where W = weight of the ceramic statue, U = upthrust of the ceramic statue in water, D = density of the ceramic statue, D' = density of water.

Making D the subject of the equation,

D = D'(W/U).................... Equation 2

Given: W = 28.4 N, U = lost in weight = weight in air- weight in water

U = 28.4 - 17.0 = 11.4 N,

Constant: D' = 1000 kg/m³.

Substitute into equation 2,

D = 100(28.4/11.4)

D = 2491.23 kg/m³

Hence the density of the ceramic statue = 2491.23 kg/m³

A ball with a mass of 170 g which contains 3.80×108 excess electrons is dropped into a vertical shaft with a height of 145 m . A
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

A. F=6.65*10^{-10}N

B. south - north

Explanation:

A) We use the Lorentz force

F = qv X B

|F| = qvB

to calculate the magnitude of the force we need the speed of the of the ball.

v_{f}^{2}=v_{0}^{2}+2gy\\v_{f}=\sqrt{0+2(9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}})(145m)}=53.31\frac{m}{s}

and by replacing in the formula for the magnitude of the force we have (taking into account the excess of electrons)

F=(3.8*10^{8})(1.602*10^{-19}C)(53.31\frac{m}{s})(0.205T)=6.65*10^{-10}N

B)

b.  south - north (by the rigth hand rule)

I hope this is usefull for you
