Waves transmit energy without transmitting matter, This means that we can move energy or information from one place to another without moving any substance from one place to another.

A carbon rod with a radius of 1.9 mm is used to make a resistor. What length of the carbon rod should be used to make a 3.7 Ω re

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Length = 2.32 m

Explanation:

Let the length required be 'L'.

Given:

Resistance of the resistor (R) = 3.7 Ω

Radius of the rod (r) = 1.9 mm = 0.0019 m [1 mm = 0.001 m]

Resistivity of the material of rod (ρ) = $1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m$

First, let us find the area of the circular rod.

Area is given as:

$A=\pi r^2=3.14\times (0.0019)^2=1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2$

Now, the resistance of the material is given by the formula:

$R=\rho( \frac{L}{A})$

Express this in terms of 'L'. This gives,

$\rho\times L=R\times A\\\\L=\frac{R\times A}{\rho}$

Now, plug in the given values and solve for length 'L'. This gives,

$L=\frac{3.7\ \Omega\times 1.13\times 10^{-5}\ m^2}{1.8\times 10^{-5}\ \Omega\cdot m}\\\\L=\frac{4.181}{1.8}=2.32\ m$

Therefore, the length of the material required to make a resistor of 3.7 Ω is 2.32 m.

It takes 500 J of work to compress a spring 10 cm. What is the force constant of the spring? (b) When a 3.0 kg block is pushed a

NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Energy stored in spring = 1/2 k x² = .5 x k 0.1²

500 = 5 x 10⁻³ k ,

k = (500/5) x 10³ = 10⁵ N/m

b )

k = 4.5 x 10¹ = 45 N/m

Stored energy = 1/2 k x² = .5 x 45 x 8² x 10⁻⁴ =1440 x 10⁻⁴ J

This energy gets dissipated by friction .

work done by friction = μ mg d

d is the distance traveled under friction

so 1440 x 10⁻⁴ = μ x 3 x 9.8 x 2

μ = 245 x 10⁻⁴ or 0.00245 which appears to be very small. .

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Gases, liquids and solids are all made up of microscopic particles, but the behaviors of these particles differ in the three phases. ... gas are well separated with no regular arrangement. liquid are close together with no regular arrangement. solid are tightly packed, usually in a regular pattern.
