Answer:

R = 0.0015Ω

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the resistivity of a material is expressed as;

ρ = RA/l

R is the resistance

ρ is the resistivity

A is the area of the wire

l is the length of the wire

Given

l = 85cm = 0.85m

A = πr²

A = 3.14*0.0018²

A = 0.0000101736m²

ρ = 1.75 × 10-8Ωm.

Substitute into the formula

1.75 × 10-8 = 0.0000101736R/0.85

1.4875× 10-8 = 0.0000101736R

R = 1.4875× 10-8/0.0000101736

R = 0.0015Ω

An object of mass 3.00 kg, moving with an initial velocity of 5.05 m/s, collides with and sticks to an object of mass 2.76 kg wi

Lynna [10]

Answer:

0.752 m/s

Explanation:

m1 = 3.00kg

u1 = 5.05m/s

m2 = 2.76kg

u2 = -3.66m/s

According to the law of conservation of momentum,

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1+m2)v

3(5.05) + 2.76(-3.66) = (5.05+2.76)v

15.15 - 9.2736 = 7.81v

5.8764 = 7.81v

v = 5.8764/7.81

v = 0.752m/s

A car traveling initially at 9.49 m/s accelerates at the rate of 0.988 m/s^2 for 3.05s. What is it’s velocity at the end of the

weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

12.50 m/s

Explanation:

Vi = 9.49 m/s

a = 0.988 m/s²

t = 3.05 s

Vf = ?

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 9.49 + (0.988)(3.05)

Vf = 12.50 m/s

An alpha particle (α), which is the same as a helium-4 nucleus, is momentarily at rest in a region of space occupied by an elect

beks73 [17]

Answer:

Speed of the alpha particle is $v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec$

Explanation:

We have given charge on alpha particle $q=3.2\times 10^{-19}C$

Mass of the alpha particle $m=6.68\times 10^{-27}kg$

Potential difference $V=-3.45\times 10^{-3}volt$

We have to find the speed of the alpha particle

From energy conservation we know that

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=qV$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 6.68\times 10^{-27}\times v^2=3.2\times 10^{-19}\times 3.45\times 10^{-3}$

$v=1.8180\times 10^3m/sec$
