A piece of aluminum wire is 500 ft long and has a diameter of 0.03 inches. What is the resistance of the piece of wire?​
dexar [7]

Answer:

8.85 Ω

Explanation:

Resistance of a wire is:

R = ρL/A

where ρ is resistivity of the material,

L is the length of the wire,

and A is the cross sectional area.

For a round wire, A = πr² = ¼πd².

For aluminum, ρ is 2.65×10⁻⁸ Ωm, or 8.69×10⁻⁸ Ωft.

Given L = 500 ft and d = 0.03 in = 0.0025 ft:

R = (8.69×10⁻⁸ Ωft) (500 ft) / (¼π (0.0025 ft)²)

R = 8.85 Ω

The theoretical maximum specific gravity of a mix at 5.0% binder content is 2.495. Using a binder specific gravity of 1.0, find
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

The theoretical maximum specific gravity at 6.5% binder content is 2.44.

Explanation:

Given the specific gravity at 5.0 %  binder content 2.495

Therefore

95 % mix + 5 % binder  gives S.G. = 2.495

Where the  binder is S.G. = 1, Therefore

Per 100 mass unit we have (Mx + 5)/(Vx + 5) = 2.495

(95 +5)/(Vx +5) = 2.495

2.495 × (Vx + 5) = 100

Vx =35.08 to 95

Or density of mix = Mx/Vx = 95/35.08 = 2.7081

Therefore when we have 6.5 % binder content, we get

Per 100 mass unit

93.5 Mass unit of Mx has a volume of

Mass/Density = 93.5/2.7081 = 34.526 volume units

Therefore we have

At 6.5 % binder content.

(100 mass unit)/(34.526 + 6.5) = 2.44

The theoretical maximum specific gravity at 6.5% binder content = 2.44.

How is the energy harnessed and converted into useful energy?
garri49 [273]

Answer:

1. How energy is harnessed?  

Another way to tap solar energy is by collecting the sun's heat. Solar thermal power plants use heat from the sun to create steam, which can then be used to make electricity. On a smaller scale, solar panels that harness thermal energy can be used for heating water in homes, other buildings, and swimming pools.

2. How is solar energy converted into useful energy?

Solar panels convert the sun's light into usable solar energy using N-type and P-type semiconductor material. When sunlight is absorbed by these materials, the solar energy knocks electrons loose from their atoms, allowing the electrons to flow through the material to produce electricity.
