A rectangular conductor with a cross sectional area of 1.04 square millimeters (mm) ^2 has a resistance of 0.075 ohms. What woul
kogti [31]

Answer:

0.0375 ohms

Explanation:

The resistance of a material is the product of the resistivity of the material by the length of the material divided by its cross-section area.

Mathematically,

resistance= resistivity × length/area

In this case the resistivity of the material is the same, and the length is the same thus, assume a length of 1 unit, the cross-section area is the one changing

In applying the formula,

resistivity is r and length is l=1 unit, find the resistivity the material as;

resistance= resistivity * length /area

0.075=r*1/1.04

0.075=r*0.9615

0.075/0.9615 =r

r=0.078

use the r=0.078 , a length of 1 unit (assumed), and area of 2.08 mm² to find the new resistance

Resistance= resistivity * length /area

Resistance = 0.078*1/2.08

Resistance= 0.078 * 0.4807 = 0.0375 ohms

Point to note here is that the greater the cross-section area, the less the resistance.

A very large thin plate is centered in a gap of width 0.06 m with a different oils of unknown viscosities above and below; one v
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The viscosities of the oils are 0.967 Pa.s and 1.933 Pa.s

Explanation:

Assuming the two oils are Newtonian fluids.

From Newton's law of viscosity for Newtonian fluids, we know that the shear stress is proportional to the velocity gradient with the viscosity serving as the constant of proportionality.

τ = μ (∂v/∂y)

There are oils above and below the plate, so we can write this expression for the both cases.

τ₁ = μ₁ (∂v/∂y)

τ₂ = μ₂ (∂v/∂y)

dv = 0.3 m/s

dy = (0.06/2) = 0.03 m (the plate is centered in a gap of width 0.06 m)

τ₁ = μ₁ (0.3/0.03) = 10μ₁

τ₂ = μ₂ (0.3/0.03) = 10μ₂

But the shear stress on the plate is given as 29 N per square meter.

τ = 29 N/m²

But this stress is a sum of stress due to both shear stress above and below the plate

τ = τ₁ + τ₂ = 10μ₁ + 10μ₂ = 29

But it is also given that one viscosity is twice the other

μ₁ = 2μ₂

10μ₁ + 10μ₂ = 29

10(2μ₂) + 10μ₂ = 29

30μ₂ = 29

μ₂ = (29/30) = 0.967 Pa.s

μ₁ = 2μ₂ = 2 × 0.967 = 1.933 Pa.s

Hope this Helps!!!
