Answer:

<h2>option C </h2><h2>decreasing its thickness and increasing its temperature. </h2>

Explanation:

<h2>Resistance is directly proportional to length and temperature of the wire and inversely to area.</h2>

<h3>if you increase the temperature the resistance will increase.(resistance is directly proportional to temperature)</h3>

<h3>if you decrease its thickness (area) then the resistance will increase ( resistance is inversely proportional to area)</h3>

hope it helps:)

A man jogs at a speed of 1.6 m/s. His dog waits 1.8 s and then takes off running at a speed of 3 m/s to catch the man. How far w

inessss [21]

Answer:

The dog catches up with the man 6.1714m later.

Explanation:

The first thing to take into account is the speed formula. It is $v=\frac{d}{t}$ , where v is speed, d is distance and t is time. From this formula, we can get the distance formula by finding d, it is $d=v\cdot t$

Now, the distance equation for the man would be:

$d_{man}=v_{man}\cdot t=1.6\cdot t$

The distance equation for the dog would be obtained by the same way with just a little detail. The dog takes off running 1.8s after the man did. So, in the equation we must subtract 1.8 from t.

$d_{dog}=v_{dog}\cdot (t-1.8)=3\cdot (t-1.8)$

For a better understanding, at t=1.8 the dog must be in d=0. Let's verify:

$d_{dog}=v_{dog}\cdot (1.8-1.8)=3\cdot (0)=0$

Now, for finding how far they have each traveled when the dog catches up with the man we must match the equations of each one.

$d_{man}=d_{dog}$

$1.6\cdot t=3\cdot (t-1.8)$

$1.6\cdot t=3\cdot t-5.4$

$1.4\cdot t=5.4$

$t=\frac{5.4}{1.4}$

$t=3.8571s$

The result obtained previously means that the dog catches up with the man 3.8571s after the man started running.

That value is used in the man's distance equation.

$d_{man}=1.6\cdot t=1.6\cdot (3.8571)$

$d_{man}=6.1714m$

Finally, the dog catches up with the man 6.1714m later.

What is table salt (NaCl) formed by?

Rzqust [24]

NaCl is a compound formed by a chemical reaction between Na (Sodium) and Cl (Chlorine). Sodium is an alkai metal in Group One of the Periodic Table, and it is very reactive. All alkai metals react violently with water and they are often found combined in nature because they are that reactive. Chlorine is a halogen in Group 17 of the Periodic Table and they are very reactive.
