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

Una rueda que tiene 15 cm de radio, realiza 64 vueltas en 16 seg. Calcula: Periodo Frecuencia Velocidad angular Velocidad lineal
liraira [26]

Answer:

i) El período de la rueda es de 0,25 segundos.

ii) La frecuencia de la rueda es 4 Hertz

iii) La velocidad angular es aproximadamente 25.133

iv) La velocidad lineal es de aproximadamente 3,77 m / s

Explanation:

El radio de la rueda, r = 15 cm = 0,15 m

El número de vueltas que hace la rueda = 64 vueltas

El tiempo que tarda el volante en dar 64 vueltas = 16 segundos

i) El período = El tiempo que tarda la rueda en dar 1 vuelta

∴ El período de la rueda, T = 16 segundos/(64 vueltas) = 0,25 segundos

El período de la rueda, T = 0,25 segundos

ii) La frecuencia = El número de vueltas por segundo

∴ La frecuencia de la rueda, f = 64 vueltas /(16 segundos) = 4 Hertz

1 vuelta = 2 · π radianes

La frecuencia de la rueda, f = 4 Hertz

iii) Velocidad angular = La medida del ángulo girado por segundo

∴ La velocidad angular, ω = 64 × 2 × π/16 segundos ≈ 8 · π rad/segundos ≈ 25.133 rad/seg

La velocidad angular, ω ≈ 25.133

iv) La velocidad lineal, v = r × ω

∴ v = 0,15 m × 8 · π rad / segundos ≈ 3,77 m/s

La velocidad lineal, v ≈ 3.77 m/s

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Mass can never be negative. Everything has mass. Just like how they ask you to find area under the graph in maths. If the area is in the 3rd and 4th quadrant, when calculated, you would get negative answer.However, area can not be negative because it is a place/ location. It's exactly the same as mass.
