Physics

Lynna [10]3 years ago

The resistance of a conductor is given by:
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}
where
\rho is the resistivity of the material
L is the length of the conductor
A is its cross-sectional area

We can use this formula to solve both parts of the problem.

a) The length of the copper wire is L=1.0 m. Its diameter is d=0.50 mm, so its radius is 
r= \frac{d}{2}=0.25 mm=0.25 \cdot 10^{-3} m
And its cross-sectional area is
A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.25 \cdot 10^{-3}m)^2 = 1.96 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2
The copper resistivity is \rho=1.68 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m, therefore the resistance of this piece of wire is
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}= \frac{(1.68 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m)(1.0 m)}{1.96 \cdot 10^{-7} m^2}=  8.57 \cdot 10^{-2} \Omega

b) The length of this piece of iron is L=10 cm=0.10 m. Its cross-sectional size is L=1.0 mm=0.001 m, so its cross-sectional area is
A=L^2 = (0.001 m)^2 =1 \cdot 10^{-6}m^2
The iron resistivity is \rho = 9.71 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m, therefore the resistance of this piece of wire is
R= \frac{\rho L}{A}= \frac{(9.71 \cdot 10^{-8} \Omega m)(0.10 m)}{1.0 \cdot 10^{-6} m^2}=9.71 \cdot 10^{-3} \Omega

Two ships of equal mass are 110 m apart. What is the acceleration of either ship due to the gravitational attraction of the othe
dusya [7]

Answer:

Acceleration of the ship, a=2.14\times 10^{-7}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of both ships, m=39000\ metric\ tons=39\times 10^6\ kg

Distance between two ships, d = 110 m

The gravitational force between two ships is given by :

F=G\dfrac{m^2}{d^2}

F=6.67\times 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^2\times \dfrac{(39\times 10^6\ kg)^2}{(110\ m)^2}

F = 8.38 N

Let a is the acceleration. Now, using second law of motion as :

a=\dfrac{F}{m}

a=\dfrac{8.38\ N}{39\times 10^6\ kg}

a=2.14\times 10^{-7}\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of either ship due to the gravitational attraction of the other is 2.14\times 10^{-7}\ m/s^2. Hence, this is the required solution.

. A vertical electric field is set up in space to compensate for the gravitational force on a point charge. What is the required
Delicious77 [7]

(a) The required magnitude of the electric field when the point charge is an electron is 5.57 x 10⁻¹¹ N/C.

(b) The required magnitude of the electric field when the point charge is an proton is 1.02 x 10⁻⁷ N/C.

<h3>Magnitude of electric field </h3>

The magnitude of electric field is given by the following equation.

F = qE

But F = mg

mg = qE

E = mg/q

where;

  • E is the electric field
  • m is mass of the particle
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • q is charge of the particle
<h3>For an electron</h3>

E = (9.11 x 10⁻³¹ x 9.8)/(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)

E = 5.57 x 10⁻¹¹ N/C

<h3>For proton</h3>

E = (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x 9.8)/(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)

E = 1.02 x 10⁻⁷ N/C

Thus, the required vertical electric field is greater when the charge is proton.
