The resistance of the sample is $682.5\Omega$

Explanation:

The relationship between resistance of a material and temperature is given by the equation

$R(T)=R_0(1+\alpha (T-T_0))$

where

$R_0$ is the resistance at the temperature $T_0$

$\alpha$ is the temperature coefficient of resistance

For the sample of nickel in this problem, we have:

$R_0 = 525 \Omega$ when the temperature is $T_0 = 20^{\circ}C$

While the temperature coefficient of resistance of nickel is

$\alpha = 0.006/^{\circ}C$

Therefore, the resistance of the sample when its temperature is

$T=70^{\circ}C$

$R=(525)(1+0.006(70-20))=682.5 \Omega$

ExtremeBDS [4]

This can be solved using momentum balance, since momentum is conserved, the momentum at point 1 is equal to the momentum of point 2. momentum = mass x velocity
m1v1 = m2v2
(0.03kg x 900 m/s ) = 320(v2)
v2 = 27 / 320
v2 = 0.084 m/s is the speed of the astronaut

Distance measurements based on the speed of light; used for objects in space

Vika [28.1K]

Answer : Yes, distance measurements based on the speed of light used for objects in space.

Explanation : A light year is measurement of distance that light travel in a one year.

In a one year light travels 9460000000000 kilometer.

We know that, speed of light is $3\times10^{8}\ m/s$

and time is 31536000 seconds in 1 year

so, distance = speed of light X time

Now, the light year is $9.4608\times10^{15} meter$

Example : The nearest star to earth is about 4.3 light year away.
