Suppose an electrical wire is replaced with one having every linear dimension doubled (i.e. the length and radius have twice the

ri original values). The wire now has ... a resistance which depends only on the material. the same resistance as before. less resistance than before. a resistance which can't be further predicted with the given information. more resistance than before.

Answer:

The wire now has less (the half resistance) than before.

Explanation:

The resistance in a wire is calculated as:

R=\alpha \frac{l}{s}

Were:

R is resistance

\alpha is the resistance coefficient

l is the length of the material

s is the area of the transversal wire, in the case of wire will be circular area (s=\pi r^{2}).

So if the lenght and radius are doubled, the equation goes as follows:

R=\alpha \frac{l}{\pi r^{2} } =\alpha \frac{2l}{\pi {(2r)}^{2} } =\alpha \frac{2l}{\pi 4 {r}^{2} }=\frac{1}{2} \alpha \frac{l}{\pi r^{2} }

So finally because the circular area is a square function, the resulting equation is half of the one before.

How many electrons must be remowel from an electricaly Nurutral Silvor Coin to five it a charge of 3.2 NC ?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

 #_electrons = 2 10¹⁰ electrons

Explanation:

For this exercise we can use a direct rule of three proportions rule. If an electron has a charge of 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ C how many electrons have a charge of 3.2 10⁻⁹ C

          #_electrons = 3.2 10⁻⁹ ( \frac{1}{1.6 \ 10^{-19}})

          #_electrons = 2 10¹⁰ electrons
