Four copper wires of equal length are connected in series. Their cross-sectional areas are 1.6 cm2 , 1.2 cm2 , 4.4 cm2 , and 7 c
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

63.8 V

Explanation:

We are given that

A_1=1.6 cm^2=1.6\times 10^{-4} m^2

1 cm^2=10^{-4} m^2

A_2=1.2 cm^2=1.2\times 10^{-4} m^2

A_3=4.4 cm^2=4.4\times 10^{-4} m^2

A_4=7 cm^2=7\times 10^{-4} m^2

Potential difference,V=140 V

We know that

R=\frac{\rho l}{A}

According to question

l_1=l_2=l_3=l_4=l

In series

R=R_1+R_2+R_3+R_4

R=\rho l(\frac{1}{A_1}+\frac{1}{A_2}+\frac{1}{A_3}+\frac{1}{A_4})

R=\rho l(\frac{1}{1.6\times 10^{-4}}+\frac{1}{1.2\times 10^{-4}}+\frac{1}{4.4\times 10^{-4}}+\frac{1}{7\times 10^{-4}})

R=\rho l(18284.6)

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{140}{\rho l\times 18284.6}

Potential across 1.2 square cm=V_1=IR_1=\frac{140}{\rho l\times 18284.6}\times \rho l(\frac{1}{1.2\times 10^{-4}}=63.8 V

Hence, the voltage across the 1.2 square cm wire=63.8 V

In a diffraction grating experiment, light of 600 nm wavelength produces a first-order maximum 0.350 mm from the central maximum
NARA [144]

Answer:

497.143 nm.

Explanation:

Diffraction grating experiment is actually done by passing light through diffraction glasses, the passage of the light causes some patterns which can be seen on the screen. This is because light is a wave and it can spread.

The solution to the question is through the use of the formula in the equation (1) below;

Sin θ = m × λ. ---------------------------------(1).

Where m takes values from 0, 1, 2, ...(that is the diffraction grating principal maxima).

Also, m × λ = dc/ B -------------------------------------------(2).

We are to find the second wavelength, therefore;

λ2 =( m1/c1) × (c2/m2) × λ1 ------------------------(3).

Where c1 and c2 are the order maximum and m = order numbers. Hence;

λ2 = (1/ .350) × (.870/3) × 600 = 497.143 nm.

a sphere with a radius of 8cm carries a uniform volume charge density of 1.5 find the magnitude of the electric field
gladu [14]

Answer:

E = 5.65 x 10¹⁰ N/C

Explanation:

First we need to find the total charge on the sphere. So, we use the following formula for that purpose:

q = \sigma V\\

where,

q = total charge on sphere

V = Volume of Sphere = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 = \frac{4}{3} \pi (0.08\ m)^3 =  0.335\ m^3

σ = volume charge density = 1.5 C/m³

Therefore,

q = (0.335\ m^3)(1.5\ C/m^3) \\q = 0.502 C

Now, we use the following formula to find the electric field due to this charged sphere:

E = \frac{kq}{r^2}

where.

E  = Electric Field Magnitude = ?

k = Coulomb's Constant = 9 x 10⁹ N.m²/C²

r = radius of sphere = 8 cm = 0.08 m

Therefore,

E = \frac{(9\ x\ 10^9\ Nm^2/C^2)(0.502 C)}{(0.08\ m)^2}\\\\

<u>E = 5.65 x 10¹⁰ N/C</u>

Lidia plans an experimental investigation to see how the thickness of a lens affects the point where a beam of light is focused.
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The type of light and the material of lenz.

Explanation:

1) As the investigation is based on how the thickness of a lens effect the other variable. Thickness of the lenz is independent variable. So Lidia has to experiment with the different thicknesses in order to find the effect on dependent variable.

2) As the investigation is based to find the point where the beam of light is focused. It's a dependent variable and Lidia has no control over it. So the only thing she can do is to measure and observe how it respond to the changes in independent variable.

3) For conclusion, she has to make sure that the other variables are not effecting the output or results that is the beam point where the light is focused. So she must have to kept constant the type of light and material of lenz otherwise she won't be able to discriminate the effect of thickness of lenz from other causes.
