What changes must be done to the wire to increase its conductance.​

Physics
1 answer:
Mandarinka [93]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

- Decreasing the resistance

- Using a shorter length

- Using a smaller area wire

Explanation:

Formula for conductance in wires is;

G = 1/R

Where;

G is conductance

R is resistance

This means that increasing the resistance leads to a larger denominator and thus a smaller conductance but to decrease the denominator means larger conductance.

Thus, to increase the conductance, we have to decrease the resistance.

Resistance here has a formula of;

R = ρL/A

Where;

ρ is resistivity

L is length of wire

A is area

Thus, to decrease the resistance, we will have to use a shorter length and smaller area of wire.

A bat hits a moving baseball. If the bat delivers a net eastward impulse of 1.3 N-s and the ball starts with an initial horizont
Georgia [21]

Answer:

141.30grams

Explanation:

First, denote our known values;

J=1.3N-s(+,east)\\u=-3.8ms^-^1(-,west)\\v=5.4ms^-^1(+,east)\\m=?

Mass is impulse divided by change in velocity:

m=\frac{J}{v-u}\\=\frac{1.3}{5.4--3.8}\\\\=\frac{1.3}{9.2}\\=0.1413Kgs

Hence, the mass of the ball is 141.30grams

Question 4. A tuning fork ‘A’ produces 6 beats/sec with another fork ‘B’ of un-known frequency. On
8090 [49]

Clever problem.

We know that the beat frequency is the DIFFERENCE between the frequencies of the two tuning forks.  So if Fork-A is 256 Hz and the beat is      6 Hz, then Fork-B has to be EITHER 250 Hz OR 262 Hz.  But which one is it ?

Well, loading Fork-B with wax increases its mass and makes it vibrate SLOWER, and when that happens, the beat drops to 5 Hz.  That means that when Fork-B slowed down, its frequency got CLOSER to the frequency of Fork-A ... their DIFFERENCE dropped from 6 Hz to 5 Hz.

If slowing down Fork-B pushed it CLOSER to the frequency of Fork-A, then its natural frequency must be ABOVE Fork-A.

The natural frequency of Fork-B, after it gets cleaned up and returns to its normal condition, is 262 Hz.  While it was loaded with wax, it was 261 Hz.

A train travels 67 kilometers in 1 hours, and then 81 kilometers in 5 hours. What is its average speed?
Naddika [18.5K]
Answer: 24.7 km/h

Explanation:

1) Average speed definition and formula

The average speed is the total distance run divided by the time elapsed:

S = distance / time

2) Distance 1 = 67 km

3) Distance 2 = 81 km

4) Total distance traveled = 67 km + 81 km = 148 km

5) time 1 = 1 hour

6) time 2 = 5 hours

7) total time = time 1 + time 2 = 1 h + 5 h = 6 h

8) Average speed:

S = 148 km / 6 h = 24.7 km/h

An airplanes lands with a velocity of +75 m/s and comes to a stop in 20 seconds. What is the acceleration of the airplane while
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the car, a = -3.75 m/s²

Explanation:

Given data,  

The initial velocity of the airplane, u = 75 m/s

The final velocity of the plane, v = 0 m/s

The time period of motion, t = 20 s

Using the I equations of motion

                    v = u + at

                     a = (v - u) / t

                        = (0 - 75) / 20

                        = -3.75 m/s²

The negative sign indicates that the plane is decelerating

Hence, the acceleration of the car, a = -3.75 m/s²
