Which change decreases the resistance of a piece

Physics
1 answer:
nika2105 [10]3 years ago
8 0

Explanation :

We know that the resistance of the wire is given by :

R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}

Where

\rho is the resistivity

l is the length of the wire

A is the area of the wire.

Another factor on which the resistance of wire depends is temperature. It is given by :

R=R_{ref}[1+\alpha (T-T_{ref})]

So, it is clear that the resistance of the wire is directly proportional to the temperature. It we want to decrease the resistance of the piece, its temperature should be decreased.

So, the correct option is (3) " decreasing the wire’s temperature ".

The pilot of an aircraft wishes to fly due west in a 33.9 km/h wind blowing toward the south. The speed of the aircraft in the a
diamong [38]

Answer:\theta =9.96^{\circ} North of west

Explanation:

Given

Plane wishes to fly in west

but wind with speed 33.9 km/h towards south obstructing its path

so plane must fly at an angle of \theta w.r.t west such that it final velocity is towards west

Plane absolute speed=195 km/h

To fly towards west velocity in Y direction should be zero

thus 195sin\theta =33.9

\theta =9.96^{\circ}

so Plane should head towards 9.96^{\circ} North of west in order to fly in west.

So plane

actual velocity is

v=-195cos9.96\hat{i}+195sin9.96\hat{j}

What observations can the geologist make by working outdoors instead of in a lab?
vredina [299]

Answer:

Geology is the study of the Earth that involves the process at Earth, materials of which it is made, and its history.

<u>Geologists combine both laboratory and field data to illustrate the results of their research. Some observations that can the geologist make by working outdoors instead of in a lab are as follows:</u>

  • Understanding and exploring the earth's surface closely using geophysical tools.
  • Collecting samples by own and make some interpretations at the same time.
  • Observation of the  landscapes
  • Close observation of outcrops

A 6.00-μf parallel-plate capacitor has charges of 40.0 μc on its plates. how much potential energy is stored in this capacitor?
dedylja [7]

Thew energy stored in a capacitor of capacitance C and voltage between the plates V is

E=\frac{1}{2} CV^2=\frac{1}{2C} Q^2.

Substituting numerical value

E=\frac{1}{2*6*10^{-6}} (40*10^{-6})^2\\ E=133.33\; \mu J

A long, straight metal rod has a radius of 5.75 cm and a charge per unit length of 33.3 nC/m. Find the electric field at the fol
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the question;

We will make assumptions of certain values since they are not given but the process to achieve the end result will be the same thing.

We are to calculate the following task, i.e. to determine the electric field at the distances:

a)  at 4.75 cm

b)  at 20.5 cm

c) at 125.0 cm

Given that:

the charge (q) = 33.3 nC/m

= 33.3 × 10⁻⁹ c/m

radius of rod = 5.75 cm

a) from the given information, we will realize that the distance lies inside the rod. Provided that there is no charge distribution inside the rod.

Then, the electric field will be zero.

b) The electric field formula E = \dfrac{kq }{d}

E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{0.205}

E = 1461.95 N/C

c) The electric field E is calculated as:

E = \dfrac{9 \times 10^9 \times (33.3 \times 10^{-9}) }{1.25}

E = 239.76 N/C

With the piston head locked in place, will the volume of the gas increase, decrease, or stay the same whenthe piston is placed a
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

For real gas the volume of a given mass of gas will increase with increase in temperature.

Explanation:

With the piston head locked in place and place above the fire,the volume of the gas will increase,because the volume of a given mass of gas increases with increase temperature.
