Answer:

The correct answer is in the x-axis direction, where the distance travelled is 1.0 cm and the surface is 8 cm^{2}.

Explanation:

The electrical resistance is lower when the contact surface is larger and the length is shorter.

An electrical resistance is an opposition to the flow of electric current through a conductor. For a given conductor, the resistance is given by the following formula:

R = ρ * \frac{l}{S}

Where:

R: Electrical resistance.

ρ: Resistivity of the material.

l: Length.

S: Surface of the conductor.

Thus, the direction in which the electrical resistance is lower is when the distance is minimum and the area is greater.

Have a nice day!

A boat floats south on the Amazon River at a speed of 6 m/s. The boat and
EleoNora [17]

Explanation:

Take south to be negative.

a. Momentum is mass times velocity.

p = mv

p = (540 kg) (-6 m/s)

p = -3240 kg m/s

p = 3240 kg m/s south

b. Impulse = change in momentum

J = Δp

Since the mass is constant:

J = mΔv

J = (540 kg) (-4 m/s − (-6 m/s))

J = 1080 kg m/s

J = 1080 kg m/s north

8-30-2018 what phase change occurs as the substance at 0 degree c has its pressure dropped from 0.50 at to 0.25 atm
madam [21]

Answer:

at T = 0ºC the change of state is from the solid state to the gaseous state

Explanation:

In this exercise we are asked about the changes of state, from the data we will assume that the material is water.

Water can exist in three solid states, liquid and gas, in a graph of pressure ℗ against temperature (T) there is a point called triple at T = 0.01ºC, below this point the curve has two states at high pressure solid and low pressure gas.

As a result of the previous ones at T = 0ºC the change of state is from the solid state to the gaseous state
