Wave speed  =  (wavelength) x (frequency)

     (340 m/s)  =  (wavelength) x (20/sec)

     (340 m/s) / (20/sec)  =  Wavelength

           17 meters            =  Wavelength

         (almost 56 feet !)

How is high temperature achieved by concave mirror?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

A concave mirror is used in the design of solar furnaces because they converge the parallel sunrays at a point. This helps to increase the temperature of the furnace.

Which of the following would decrease current flow in a circuit made originally from a 6-volt battery, a loop of wire, and a swi
Oduvanchick [21]

For a given closed circuit the current voltage and resistance of circuit is related with ohm's law

V = i*R

here

V = voltage difference due to battery

i = current flow in the circuit

R = resistance

so from above equation

i = \frac{V}{R}

so in order to decrease the current in the circuit we can either increase the resistance of the circuit or decrease the voltage

Now the formula of resistance is

R =\rho \frac{L}{A}

here

\rho = resistivity of material of resistance

L = resistance

A = crossectional area

a) if we use a thick wire the as per above formula of resistance the value of resistance will decrease.

And hence the current will increase in the circuit so it is not correct option

b) If 6V battery is replaced by 12 V battery then due to increase in potential difference the current in the circuit will also increase, so this is not correct answer.

c)Opening the switch will decrease the voltage from 6 V to 0 Volt

due to this decrease in potential difference the current in the circuit will also decrease. So by Opening the switch the current will be decreased in this circuit.

A magnetic field exerts a force of 0.25 N on an 8.0 cm length of wire carrying a current of 3.0 A at right angles to the field.
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer: 0.625N

Explanation:

Given the following:

Magnetic field Force = 0.25N

Length of wire = 8cm

Current = 3.0 ampere

The force that the same field will exert on another wire 20cm long carrying the same current will be :

Since current 'I' is the same ;

0.25 Force = 8cm

x force = 20cm

Cross multiply:

8x = (20 × 0.25)

x = (20 × 0.25) / 8

x = 5 / 8

x = 0.625

Force = 0.625N
