Answer:

The resistance will be twice the original resistance

Explanation:

This is a fairly simple question, the formular for the resistance of a wire is given as

R = rho *length / area

Where R = resistance

Rho = resistivity

L = length

A = area

Since the density and area are constant I.e they do not change

R/ length = rho/ area

The initial length is given as L, when this length is stretched to twice its original length ,it becomes 2×L = 2L

Let x represent the resistance when the length is doubled

R/ L = x / 2L

x = 2LR / L ; dividing by L

We have that x = 2R ; twice the resistance

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

L2 = 2 × L1

Using the formula,

Resistivity, d = (R × A)/L

Where,

R = resistance

A = area

L = length

1. d1 = (R1 × A1)/L1

2. d2 = (R2 × A2)/L2

Equating both 1 and 2 together,

(R2 × A2)/L2 = (R1 × A1)/L1

(R2 × A2)/(2 × L1) = (R1 × A1)/L1

Assume A1 = A2,

R2 = [(R1 × A1) × 2 × L1]/(A1 × L1)

R2 = 2 × R1

A sample of Bismuth-212 has a mass of 2.64 grams (g) after 121 seconds (s). What was the initial mass of the sample if Bismuth-2

uysha [10]

The mass of a radioactive element at time t is given by
$m(t) = m_0 ( \frac{1}{2} )^{ \frac{t}{t_{1/2}} }$
where $m_0$ is the mass at time zero, while $t_{1/2}$ is the half-life of the element.

In our problem, $m(t)=2.64 g$ , t=121.0 s and $t_{1/2}=60.5 s$ , so we can find the initial mass $m_0$ :
$m_0= \frac{m(t)}{ (\frac{1}{2})^{t/t_{1/2}} } = \frac{2.64 g}{( \frac{1}{2} )^{121/60.5}} =4 \cdot 2.64 g=10.56 g$

An 18.5-cm-diameter loop of wire is initially oriented perpendicular to a 1.5-T magnetic field. The loop is rotated so that its

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

The average induced emf in the loop is 0.20 V

Explanation:

Given:

Radius of loop $r = \frac{d}{2} = 9.25 \times 10^{-2}$ m

Magnetic field $B = 1.5$ T

Change in time $\Delta t = 0.20$ sec

According to the faraday's law,

Induced emf is given by

$\epsilon = -\frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta t}$

Where $\phi =$ magnetic flux

$\phi = BA\cos0$ ( here $\theta = 0$ )

Where $A = \pi r^{2}$

We neglect minus sign because it's shows lenz law

$\epsilon = \frac{B \pi r^{2} }{\Delta t}$

$\epsilon = \frac{1.5 \times 3.14 \times (9.25 \times 10^{-2} )^{2} }{0.20}$

$\epsilon = 0.20$ V

Therefore, the average induced emf in the loop is 0.20 V

D. Carbon

Carbon cycle is an example of a biogeochemical cycle. The biogeochemical cycles move through mainly the biotic and abiotic components of the earth, more elaborately the spheres -biospheres, lithosphere, hydrosphere and atmosphere regions of the ecosystem. These biogeochemical cycles, from its terminology and discernable word morphology- involves the biological, geological and chemical components that make out to complete an exact and purposed cycle. The purpose in these cycles are to maintain balance and to ensure the ongoing process of the living and non-living organisms in the environment. These cycles’ help to living organisms survive and thrive. One popular example is the water cycle.

Which is an example of a monthly fixed cost for a sandwich shop?

aivan3 [116]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option A. The rent is an example of a monthly fixed cost for a sandwich shop. It is a fixed cost since you are required to pay for it per month. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.
