Suppose you want to to double a copper wire's resistance. To what temperature, in degrees Celsius, must you raise it if it is or

iginally at 24°C, neglecting any changes in dimensions? Suppose you want to to double a copper wire's resistance. To what temperature, in degrees Celsius, must you raise it if it is originally at 24°C, neglecting any changes in dimensions?

Answer:

T=280.41 °C

Explanation:

Given that

At T= 24°C Resistance =Ro

Lets take at temperature T resistance is 2Ro

We know that resistance R given as

R= Ro(1+αΔT)

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

For copper wire

α(coefficient of Resistance) = 3.9 x 10⁻³ /°C

Given that at temperature T

R= 2Ro

Now by putting the values

R-Ro=Ro αΔT

2Ro-Ro=Ro αΔT

1 = αΔT

1 = 3.9 x 10⁻³ x ΔT

ΔT = 256.41 °C

T- 24 = 256.41 °C

T=280.41 °C

So the final temperature is 280.41 °C.

how do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate
professor190 [17]

While skydiving, its not just freely falling under Earth's gravity. Additional force called drag acts against the gravity which slows down the rate of fall. Drag is caused by the air molecules which pushes against the body as it falls through them. This is actually a significant amount of force which slows down the rate of fall of the body. Drag depends on the contact surface area and weight. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. No two persons have identical body shape and weight. Hence, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

A car starts from rest and accelerates uniformly for a five seconds along a straight road. If speed obtained by the car is 72 km
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

50 meters

Explanation:

Let's start by converting to m/s. There are 3600 seconds in an hour and 1000 meters in a kilometer, meaning that 72km/h is 20m/s.

v_f=v_o+at

Since the car starts at rest, you can write the following equation:

20=0+a(5) \\\\a=20\div 5=4 m/s^2

Now that you have the acceleration, you can do this:

d=v_o+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Once again, there is no initial velocity:

d=\dfrac{1}{2}(4)(5)^2=2 \cdot 25=50m

Hope this helps!

The specific heat of a certain type of metal is 0.128 J/(g⋅∘C).0.128 J/(g⋅∘C). What is the final temperature if 305 J305 J of he
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

45.3°C

Explanation:

Heat gained = mass × specific heat × increase in temperature

q = mC (T − T₀)

Given C = 0.128 J/g/°C, m = 94.0 g, q = 305 J, and T₀ = 20.0°C:

305 J = (94.0 g) (0.128 J/g/°C) (T − 20.0°C)

T = 45.3°C
