If the cross-section of a wire of fixed length is doubled, the resistance of that wire change into doubled.We know that <span>the total </span>length<span> of the wires will </span>affect<span> the amount of </span>resistance. <span> The longer the wire, the more </span>resistance<span> that there will be so the answer is doubled.</span>
Moment about the pivot must be equal for the seesaw to balance. Initially, the first cat and the bowl are at 2 m from the pivot.
The moment due to cat = 5.3*2 = 10.6 kg.m
The moment due to bowl = 2.5*2 = 5 kg.m
The unbalanced moment = 10.6 - 5 = 5.6 kg.m
Therefore, the 3.7 kg cat should stand at a distance x from the pivot in left to balance the 5.6 kg.m.
That is,
3.7*x = 5.6 => x = 5.6/3.7 = 1.5134 m to the left (on the side of the bowl)
The new period will be 2.486 days.
<h3>What is the period?</h3>
The period is found as the ratio of the angular displacement and the angular velocity. Its unit is the second and is denoted by t. The value of time needed to complete the rotation is the total period.
Given data;
Mass of a star,m= 1.210×10³¹ kg
The time period for one rotation of the star, T = 20.30 days
D' = 0.350 D
R' = 0.350 R
From the law of conservation of angular momentum;

Hence, the new period will be 2.486 days.

A. During long jump athlete runs before taking the jump by doing so he provides himself a larger inertia.
<h3>
What is inertia?</h3>
Inertia is the reluctance of an object to stop moving once in motion or start moving when it is at rest.
When an athlete runs before taking the jump, he is trying to increase his inertia, that is his reluctance to stop, thereby increasing his forward motion or jump.
Thus, during long jump athlete runs before taking the jump by doing so he provides himself a larger inertia.
