Answer:

c: long and thin resistor.

Explanation:

The resistance of a resistor is given by:

R = ρ*L/A

where:

R = resistance

ρ = resistivity (depends on the material)

L = length of the material

A = cross-sectional area of the material

We can see that the length is on the numerator, which means that if we increase the length, then the resistance is increased.

We also can see that the cross-sectional area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area (for example, with a ticker resistor) the resistance decreases.

Then if we want to maximize the resistance, we need to have a long and thin resistor, so the correct answer is c.

Explain how a generator creates electricity.

vlada-n [284]

Generators don't actually create electricity. Instead, they convert mechanical or chemical energy into electrical energy. They do this by capturing the power of motion and turning it into electrical energy by forcing electrons from the external source through an electrical circuit. hope it helps man

Imagine that you are working as a roller coaster designer. You want to build a record breaking coaster that goes 70.0 m/s at the

Wow ! This is not simple. At first, it looks like there's not enough information, because we don't know the mass of the cars. But I"m pretty sure it turns out that we don't need to know it.

At the top of the first hill, the car's potential energy is

PE = (mass) x (gravity) x (height) .

At the bottom, the car's kinetic energy is

   KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed²) .

You said that the car's speed is 70 m/s at the bottom of the hill,
and you also said that 10% of the energy will be lost on the way
down. So now, here comes the big jump. Put a comment under
my answer if you don't see where I got this equation:

   KE = 0.9 PE

(1/2) (mass) (70 m/s)² = (0.9) (mass) (gravity) (height)

Divide each side by (mass):

   (0.5) (4900 m²/s²) = (0.9) (9.8 m/s²) (height)

(There goes the mass. As long as the whole thing is 90% efficient,
the solution will be the same for any number of cars, loaded with
any number of passengers.)

Divide each side by (0.9):

   (0.5/0.9) (4900 m²/s²) = (9.8 m/s²) (height)

Divide each side by (9.8 m/s²):

   Height = (5/9)(4900 m²/s²) / (9.8 m/s²)

      = (5 x 4900 m²/s²) / (9 x 9.8 m/s²)

      = (24,500 / 88.2) (m²/s²) / (m/s²)

      = 277-7/9 meters
      (about 911 feet)

mass of iron block given as

$m_1 = 1.90 kg$

density of iron block is

$\rho = 7860 kg/m^3$

now the volume of the iron piece is given as

$V = \frac{m}{\rho}$

$V = \frac{1.90}{7860} = 2.42* 10^{-4} m^3$

Now when this iron block is complete submerged in oil inside the beaker the buoyancy force on the iron block will be given as

$F_b = \rho_L V g$

here we know that

$\rho_L$ = density of liquid = 916 kg/m^3

$F_b = 916* 2.42 * 10^{-4} * 9.8$

$F_b = 2.17 N$

Now for the reading of spring balance we can say the spring force and buoyancy force on the block will counter balance the weight of the block at equilibrium

$F_s + F_b = mg$

$F_s + 2.17 = 1.90* 9.8$

$F_s = 16.45 N$

So reading of spring balance will be 16.45 N

Now for other scale which will read the normal force of the surface we can write that normal force on the container will balance weight of liquid + container and buoyancy force on block

$F_n = F_g + F_b$

$F_n = (1 + 2.50)*9.8 + 2.17$

$F_n = 34.3 + 2.17 = 36.47 N$

So the other scale will read 36.47 N
