On page 37 it explains that If two conductors are composed of the same material and have the same cross-sectional area but different lengths, the electrical resistance of the longer conductor will be greater than that of the shorter conductor.

So the correct answer is A. shortening the conductor

R = ρ L/A. R= resistance, ρ= resistivity, L= length of the conductor. A = area of the conductor. Resistance is directly proportional to the length of the conductor. So if length of the conductor is decreased, resistance will also decrease. Hence A is the correct option

sound is a longitudinal wave, and its speed depends on the medium through which it propagates. in air, sound travels at 343 m/s
melomori [17]

The speed of the sound wave in the medium, given the data is 3900 m

<h3>Velocity of a wave </h3>

The velocity of a wave is related to its frequency and wavelength according to the following equation:

Velocity (v) = wavelength (λ) × frequency (f)

v = λf

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed of the sound wave. Details below:

<h3>How to determine speed of the sound wave</h3>

The speed of the wave can be obtained as illustrated below:

  • Frequency (f) = 600 Hz
  • Wavelength (λ) = 6.5 m
  • Velocity (v) =?

v = λf

v = 6.5 × 600

v = 3900 m

Thus, the speed of the sound wave in the medium is 3900 m

Calculate the heat energy required to increase the temperature of 3 kg of water by 20ºC. The specific heat capacity of water is
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

Heat energy required = 252000J or 252KJ.

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Mass = 3kg

Temperature = 20ºC

Specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg°C

To find the heat energy required;

Heat capacity is given by the formula;

Q = mct

Where;

  • Q represents the heat capacity or quantity of heat.
  • m represents the mass of an object.
  • c represents the specific heat capacity of water.
  • t represents the temperature.

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Q = 3*4200*20

Q = 252000 Joules or 252 Kilojoules.
