Answer:

I=0.047A

Explanation:

Let's use Ohm's law:

V=IR  

or

I=\frac{V}{R}   (1)

Where:

V=Voltage\\I=Current\\R=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}Resistance

We know the value of the voltage V, so we need to find the value of R in order to find I. Fortunately there is a relation between the resistivity of a conductor and its electrical resistance given by:

R=\rho*\frac{l}{A}    (2)

Where:

R=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}Resistance\\l=Length\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}conductor=80m\\A=Cross\hspace{2 mm}sectional\hspace{2 mm}area\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}conductor=1.256637061*10^{-7} \\\rho=Electrical\hspace{2 mm}resistivity\hspace{2 mm}of\hspace{2 mm}the\hspace{2 mm}material=2.35*10^{-8}

Keep in mind that the electrical resistivity of the gold is a known constant which is \rho_g_o_l_d=2.35*10^{-8} and the cross sectional area of the conductor is calculated as:

A=\pi *(r^{2})=\pi  *(0.0002m)^{2} =1.256637061*10^{-7} m^{2}

Because we have a wire in this case, so we assume a cylindrical geometry.

Now replacing our data in (2)

R=(2.35*10^{-8})*\frac{80}{1.256637061*10^{-7} }  =14.96056465\Omega

Finally, we know R and V, so replacing these values in (1) we will be able to find the current:

I=\frac{0.7}{14.96056465}\approx0.047A

Find the cost of excavating a space 84 ft long, 42 ft wide, and 9 ft deep at a cost of $39/yd3. (simplify your answer completely
m_a_m_a [10]

The cost of excavating a space of 84 ft long, 42 ft wide, and 9 ft deep is $45864

Information about the problem:

  • Space long= 84 ft
  • Space wide= 42 ft
  • Space deep= 9 ft
  • Cost by yard3 = $39/yd3
  • Total cost= ?

To solve this problem, we have to state the equation using the information of the problem:

Calculating the volume of the total space:

space volume = space long * space wide * space deep

space volume = 84 ft * 42 ft * 9 ft

space volume = 31752 ft3

By converting the volume from ft3 to yd3, we have:

31752 ft3 * (0,037037 yd3 / 1 ft3) = 1176 yd3

Calculating the cost of excavating the volume space:

Total cost = space volume * cost by yard3

Total cost = 1176 yd3 * $39/yd3

Total cost = $45864

<h3>What is volume?</h3>

It is the space occupied by a body, it is calculated by multiplying its dimensions, for example: length, height and width.

What is the relation between the gravitational force acting between any two bodies object with their masses and the distance bet
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The strength of the gravitational force between two objects depends on two factors, mass and distance. the force of gravity the masses exert on each other. ... increases, the force of gravity decreases. If the distance is doubled, the force of gravity is one-fourth as strong as before.

Hang two sheets of paper vertically from adjacent corners. The sheets should be parallel and close to each other with a small ga
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a. The sheets move toward each other and the gap narrows.

Explanation:

This exercise is related to fluid mechanics, when blowing between the two sheets, we can apply Bernoulli's equation, where the index 2 is the space between the two sheets

       P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ g v₂² + ρ g y²

if the two leaves are at the same height

                      y₁ = y₂

 whereby

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂²

for the air velocity between the leaves let us use the continuity equation

        A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

the area between the leaves is less than the external area, so the air speed must increase. If we use this in Bernoulli's equation, increasing the speed 2 (between the leaves) to maintain equality the pressure must decrease.

If the pressure decreases, the blades should move closer

When resisting the answers, the correct one is  a
