Hello.

The answer: C. amount of charge on the source charge

The field lines all represent the movements of field charges.  The more crowded the field lines or the more density of electric field the higher is the magnitude of the source charge.

Have a  nice day.

The number or density of field lines on a source charge indicates the amount of charge on the source charge.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation: </u>

The source charge is the point from which the charge lines or the lines of energy will be started. So the number of lines emitted from the point charge or the source charge will indicate the strength of the source charge.

Also by measuring the density of the source charge i.e., the number of lines emitted per unit volume or the field lines which is the measure of lines emitted per unit area also indicate the strength of the source charge. So these strength are nothing but the amount of charge present in the source charge.

Determine the length of the tungsten filament in a 100 watt lightbulb given: (i) the resistivity of tungsten is 5.6 × 10−8 Ω · m
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

0.34148 m

Explanation:

\rho = Resistivity of tungsten = 5.6\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega m

d = Diameter = 0.0018 inch

r = Radius = \dfrac{r}{2}=\dfrac{0.0018}{2}=0.0009\ in

r=0.0009\times 0.0254=0.00002286\ m

\alpha = Temperature coefficient of tungsten = 0.0045 /^{\circ}C

Power is given by

P=\dfrac{V^2}{R}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{V^2}{P}\\\Rightarrow R=\dfrac{120^2}{100}\\\Rightarrow R=144\ \Omega

We have the equation

R_2=R_1[1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)]\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{R_2}{1+\alpha(T_2-T_1)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=\dfrac{144}{1+0.0045(2550-25)}\\\Rightarrow R_1=11.64812\ \Omega

Resistance is given by

R=\rho\dfrac{l}{A}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{RA}{\rho}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{11.64812\times \pi (0.00002286)^2}{5.6\times 10^{-8}}\\\Rightarrow l=0.34148\ m

The length of the filament is 0.34148 m

It is winter in Puerto Rico. Compare the air temperatures beachgoers feel near the water
Leviafan [203]
Large amounts of water do have a big impact on the weather: indeed, it takes less energy to warm/cool land than water.
Therefore, places near large amounts of water tend to have smaller differences in temperature between summer and winter than places far from waters.

Hence, during winter in Puerto Rico, alongside the coast, the temperature will be higher than in the innermost parts of the island.

A 700 g can of beans is dropped from a shelf that is 1.5 m high. What is the gravitational potential energy of this can? Round y
OLga [1]
<span>To find the gravitational potential energy of an object, we can use this equation: GPE = mgh m is the mass of the object in kg g = 9.80 m/s^2 h is the height of the object in meters GPE = mgh GPE = (0.700 kg) (9.80 m/s^2) (1.5 m) GPE = 10.3 J The gravitational potential energy of this can is 10.3 J</span>

Object A has a mass of 100 grams. Object B has a mass of 150 grams. They are both traveling at the same velocity. What can you c
Scilla [17]
-- Momentum is (mass) x (speed). 
Object B has 1.5 times as much momentum as Object A has.

-- Kinetic energy is (1/2) x (mass) x (speed) . 
Object B has 1.5 times as much kinetic energy as Object A has.

-- If they would both stop long enough to get on the scale,
Object B would weigh 1.5 times as much as Object A does.
