If the cross-section of a wire of fixed length is doubled,  the resistance of that wire change into doubled.We know that <span>the total </span>length<span> of the wires will </span>affect<span> the amount of </span>resistance. <span> The longer the wire, the more </span>resistance<span> that there will be so the answer is doubled.</span>

Non clastic sedimentary rocks from chemical reactions, chiefly in the ocean. Nonclastic and clastic sedimentary rocks are the only members of the rock family that contain fossils as well as indicators of the climate that was present when the rock was formed.

What factors affect the speed of water waves
Aneli [31]
Hey there,

Your question states: What factors affect the speed of water waves
Let's get one thing out the way, (wavelength) does NOT affect the the speed of water. If anything, it would be how high the wavelength's are. The higher the wavelengths are, the more that it would affect the speed, because there very high, but if it were to go longer on the width side, that would increase the speed, but that's not the case. Your correct answer would be (higher wavelength).

Hope this really helps you.

Water enters the constant 130-mm inside-diameter tubes of a boiler at 7 MPa and 65°C and leaves the tubes at 6 MPa and 450°C wit
snow_lady [41]

The inlet velocity is 1.4 m/s and inlet volume is 0.019 m³/s.

Explanation:

When water entering the tube of constant diameter flows through the tube, it exhibits continuity of mass in the hydrostatics. So the mass of water moving from the inlet to the outlet tend to be same, but the velocity may differ.

As per mass flow equality which states that the rate of flow of mass in the inlet is equal to the product of area of the tube with the velocity of the water and the density of the tube.

Since, the inlet volume flow is measured as the product of velocity with the area.

Inlet volume flow=Inlet velocity*Area*time

And the mass flow rate is  

Mass flow rate in the inlet=density*area*inlet velocity*time

Mass flow rate in the outlet=density*area*outlet velocity*time

Since, the time and area is constant, the inlet and outlet will be same as

(Mass inlet)/(density*inlet velocity)=Area*Time

(Mass outlet)/(density*outlet velocity)=Area*Time

As the ratio of mass to density is termed as specific volume, then  

(Specific volume inlet)/(Inlet velocity)=(Specific volume outlet)/(Outlet velocity)

Inlet velocity=  (Specific volume inlet)/(Specific volume outlet)*Outlet velocity

As, the specific volume of water at inlet is 0.001017 m³/kg and at outlet is 0.05217 m³/kg and the outlet velocity is given as 72 m/s, the inlet velocity

is

Inlet velocity = \frac{0.001017}{0.05217}*72 =1.4035 m/s

So, the inlet velocity is 1.4035 m/s.

Then the inlet volume will be

Inlet volume = inlet velocity*area of circle=\pi  r^{2}*inlet velocity

As the diameter of tube is 130 mm, then the radius is 65 mm and inlet velocity is 1.4 m/s

Inlet volume = 1.4*3.14*65*65*10^{-6} =0.019 \frac{m^{3} }{s}

So, the inlet volume is 0.019 m³/s.

Thus, the inlet velocity is 1.4 m/s and inlet volume is 0.019 m³/s.
