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.

A toroidal coil of N turns has a central radius b and a square cross section of side a. Find its self-inductance.

Xelga [282]

Answer:

$L = \frac{\mu_0 N^2 (a^2)}{2\pi b}$

Explanation:

As we know that magnetic field due to torroid is given as

$B = \frac{\mu_0 N i}{2\pi b}$

this is approximately constant magnetic field along the axis of the torroid

now the flux linked with one coil of the torroid is given as

$\phi = B.A$

$\phi = \frac{\mu_0 N i}{2\pi b}(a^2)$

now total flux of N number of coils is given as

$\phi_{total} = \frac{\mu_0 N^2 i(a^2)}{2\pi b}$

now we know that self inductance is the property of coil in which flux of the coil will link with the current in the coil

So we know that

$L = \frac{\phi}{i}$

$L = \frac{\mu_0 N^2 (a^2)}{2\pi b}$

A locomotive accelerates a 25-car train along a level track. Every car has a mass of 7.7 ✕ 104 kg and is subject to a friction f

MaRussiya [10]

To solve the problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Force of Friction and Tension between the two bodies.

In this way,

The total mass of the cars would be,

$m_T = 25(7.7*10^4)Kg$

$m_T = 1.925*10^6Kg$

Therefore the friction force at 29Km / h would be,

$f=250v$

$f= 250*29Km/h$

$f = 250*29*(\frac{1000m}{1km})(\frac{1h}{3600s})$

$f = 2013.889N$

In this way the tension exerts between first car and locomotive is,

$T=m_Ta+f$

$T=(1.925*10^6)(0.2)+2013.889$

$T= 3.8701*10^5N$

Therefore the tension in the coupling between the car and the locomotive is $3.87*10^5N$

What type of evidence is needed for a hypothesis to be supported or not supported?

NISA [10]

Answer:

Hypotheses must be testable, and once tested, they can be supported by evidence. If a statement is made that cannot be tested and disproved, then it is not a hypothesis.
