Answer:

<u>At a given temperature</u>

Resistivity depends only on the material and resistance depends on resisitvity, length of the wire and cross-sectional area of the wire

Explanation:

At a given temperature the resistance of a specimen with unit length and unit cross sectional area is called resisitivity.

We get

R = ρl/A

where; R = resistance

ρ = resistivity

l = length of the wire

A = cross-sectional area of the wire

So you get, ρ ∝ 1\l

ρ ∝ A

ρ ∝ R

balandron [24]

Answer: $233.23 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given

radius of circle=1.4 m

Height of stone above ground=1.5 m

Horizontal distance(R)=10 m

It is given at the time of break stone flies horizontally thus stone to cover a height of 1.5 m in time t before reaching ground

$1.5=0+\frac{gt^2}{2}$

t=0.55 s

Initial horizontal velocity at the time of break is given by u

$R=u\times t$

$10=u\times 0.55$

u=18.07 m/s

Therefore magnitude of centripetal acceleration is given by

$a_c=\frac{u^2}{r}=\frac{18.07^2}{1.4}=233.23 m/s^2$

If a system has 475 kcal of work done to it, and releases 5.00 × 102 kJ of heat into its surroundings, what is the change in int

Andrews [41]

First, we convert kcal to joules:
1 kcal = 4.184 kJ
475 kcal = 1987.4 kJ

Now, calculating the change in internal energy:

ΔU = Q + W; where Q is the heat supplied to the system and W is the work done on the system.

ΔU = -500 + 1987.4
ΔU = 1487.4 kJ

inysia [295]

The independent variable would be the cleaning products.

The independent variable is the variable that you can manipulate. The change in the independent variable is not affected by other variables. So in this case, the independent variable would be the cleaning product because you will be changing it.
