Answer:

Therefore the resistance of the conductor is 175Ω

Explanation:

Resistance:

  • Resistance of a metallic conductor is directly proportional to its length(l).
  • Resistance of a metallic conductor is inversely proportional to its cross section area(A).

The notation sign of resistance is R.

The unit of resistance is ohm (Ω).

Therefore,

R \propto l

and

R \propto \frac{1}{A}

\therefore R\propto \frac{l}{A}

\Rightarrow R=\rho \frac{l}{A}

ρ is the proportional constant.

It is also known as resistivity of that metal.

Given ρ=35×10⁻⁶Ω-m

l= 20 m

A= 4.0×10⁻⁶m²

\therefore R=35\times 10^{-6}\times \frac{20}{4.0\times 10^{-6}}

       =175Ω

Therefore the resistance of the conductor is 175Ω

A turtle swimming in a straight line toward shore has a speed of 0.50 m/sec. After 4.0 seconds, its speed is at 0.90 m/sec. What
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

0.1m/s²

Explanation:

Using the equation of motion

V = u+at

V is the final speed = 0.9m/s

Initial speed u = 0.5m/s

Time = 4secs

Get the acceleration

0.9 = 0 5+4a

0.9-0.5 = 4a

0.4 = 4a

a = 0.4/4

a = 0.1m/s²

Hence the acceleration is 0.1m/s²
