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

If a girl is standing still and holding a box, is she doing any work? Why or why not?
sukhopar [10]
I beleive she isnt doing any work due to holding the box motionless, you must be exerting a force in the direction of the box motion. If she is just standing there holding the box their isn't no work becuase no distance has been covered. work = force = distance.

A shoe and a shirt are released from the same height. They take different amounts of time to fall to the ground. How can this be
Law Incorporation [45]

The best explanation for the difference in time is: A. The difference in weight doesn't affect the time, but they are affected differently by air resistance.

<h3>What is weight?</h3>

Weight can be defined as the force acting on an object or a physical body due to the effect of gravity. Also, the weight of an object (body) is typically measured in Newton.

<h3>The factors that affect weight.</h3>

Some of the factors that affect the weight that is possessed by an object or a physical body include the following:

  • Mass
  • Distance
  • Air resistance

In conclusion, the weight possessed by the shoe and shirt has no effect on time but would be affected differently by air resistance.

A block is pulled along a horizontal surface at a constant speed by a force (14.1i 0 j 5.1k). The direction k is perpendicular t
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

W =84.6\ Nm

Explanation:

given,

F = 14.1 i + 0 j + 5.1 k

displacement = 6 m

Assuming block is moving in x- direction

we know,

 dW = F dx

\int dW = F\int dx

W = F\int_0^6 dx

W = F[x]_0^6

W = 14.1 \times 6

W =84.6\ Nm

hence, work done by the force is equal to W =84.6\ Nm
