Complete question:

Resistor is made of a very thin metal wire that is 3.2 mm long, with a diameter of 0.4 mm. What is the electric field inside this metal resistor? If the potential difference due to electric field between the two ends of the resistor is 10 V.

Answer:

The electric field inside this metal resistor is 3125 V/m

Explanation:

Given;

length of the wire, L = 3.2 mm = 3.2 x 10⁻³ m

diameter of the wire, d = 0.4 mm = 0.4 x 10⁻³ m

the potential difference due to electric field between the two ends of the resistor, V = 10 V

The electric field inside this metal resistor is given by;

ΔV = EL

where;

ΔV is change in electric potential

E = ΔV / L

E = 10 / (3.2 x 10⁻³ )

E = 3125 V/m

Therefore, the electric field inside this metal resistor is 3125 V/m

NISA [10]

Answer:

A)  Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium

B) air is the medium in which the wave is transported,

Explanation:

Part A.

A sound wave is a longitudinal oscillation of the molecules that forms in a material medium, they can be solid, liquid or gases, therefore the wave propagates in the same direction as the oscillation of the particles.

The most correct answer is:

* Propagation of pressure fluctuations in a medium

Part b

air is the medium in which the wave is transported, otherwise it cannot propagate

The earth and the moon exert forces on each other which forces is greater? explain
Helen [10]

Thank you for your question, what you say is true, the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the Moon has to be equal to the centripetal force.

An interesting application of this principle is that it allows you to determine a relation between the period of an orbit and its size. Let us assume for simplicity the Moon's orbit as circular (it is not, but this is a good approximation for our purposes).

The gravitational acceleration that the Moon experience due to the gravitational attraction from the Earth is given by:

ag=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2

Where G is the gravitational constant, M stands for mass, and r is the radius of the orbit. The centripetal acceleration is given by:

acentr=(4 pi2 r)/T2

Where T is the period. Since the two accelerations have to be equal, we obtain:

(4 pi2 r) /T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/r2

Which implies:

r3/T2=G(MEarth+MMoon)/4 pi2=const.

This is the so-called third Kepler law, that states that the cube of the radius of the orbit is proportional to the square of the period.

This has interesting applications. In the Solar System, for example, if you know the period and the radius of one planet orbit, by knowing another planet's period you can determine its orbit radius. I hope that this answers your question.

A convex lens has a focal length of 16.5 cm. Where on the lens axis should an object be placed in order to get a virtual, enlarg
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Object should be placed at a distance, u = 7.8 cm

Given:

focal length of convex lens, F = 16.5 cm

magnification, m = 1.90

Solution:

Magnification of lens, m = -\frac{v}{u}

where

u = object distance

v = image distance

Now,

1.90 = \frac{v}{u}

v = - 1.90u

To calculate the object distance, u by lens maker formula given by:

\frac{1}{F} = \frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{v}

\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{1}{u}+ \frac{1}{- 1.90u}

\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{1.90 - 1}{1.90u}

\frac{1}{16.5} = \frac{ 0.90}{1.90u}

u = 7.8 cm

Object should be placed at a distance of 7.8 cm on the axis of the lens to get virtual and enlarged image.
