Answer:

Explanation:

a )

current in the wire = potential diff / resistance

= 23 / (15 x 10⁻³ )

= 1.533 x 10³ A .

b )

For resistance of a wire , the formula is

R = ρ L / S where ρ is specific resistance , L is length and S is cross sectional area of wire

putting the given values

15 x 10⁻³ = 4ρ / π x .003²

ρ = 106  x 10⁻⁹ ohm. m

= 10.6 x 10⁻⁸ ohm m

The metal wire appears to be platinum .

a police officer finds 60 m of skid marks at the scene of a car crash. Assuming a uniform deceleration of 7.5 m/s to a stop , wh
Oliga [24]
The equation to be used is for the rectilinear motion at constant acceleration:

x = v₀t + 0.5at²
a = (v-v₀)/t
where
x is distance
v and v₀ is the final and initial velocity
t is time
a is acceleration

Because the acceleration is decelerating, that would be reported as -7.5 m/s². Substituting,

-7.5 = (0 - v₀)/t
v₀ = 7.5 t --> eqn 1

x = v₀t + 0.5at²
60 = (7.5t)(t) + 0.5(-7.5)(t²)
Solving for t,
t = 4s

Thus,
v₀ = 7.5 m/s² * 4s
v₀ = 30 m/s

A wave has a wavelength of 3.3 m and a speed of 5.6 m/s. What is the frequency of this wave
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer: λ (wavelength) = 3.3 m →  ΔS = 3.3 m

v (speed) = 5.6 m/s → ΔV = 5.6 m/s

T (period) → ΔT = ?

f (frequency) = ?

If:

Now: (if, ΔT = T), Using the formula of the period of a wave, find the frequency:

bearhunter [10]
Sure.
Can I use your answer to part-'a' ?

If the angular acceleration is actually 32 rev/min², than
after 1.2 min, it has reached the speed of

                 (32 rev/min²) x (1.2 min)  =  38.4 rev/min .

Check:

If the initial speed is zero and the final speed is 38.4 rpm,
then the average speed during the acceleration period is

                  
(1/2) (0 + 38.4)  =  19.2 rpm  average

At an average speed of  19.2 rpm for 1.2 min,
it covers

                   (19.2 rev/min) x (1.2 min)  =  23.04 revs .

That's pretty close to the "23" in the question, so I think that
everything here is in order.
