A student investigated how length affects resistance of a wire.

Physics
1 answer:
Mrac [35]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

X is ammeter and Y is voltmeter

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is directly proportional to the length of the wire. That is the longer the length of the wire, the higher the resistance and the shorter the length of the wire, the smaller the resistance.

Ammeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the current in a circuit by connecting the meter in series with the circuit.

Ammeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the potential difference between two points by connecting the meter in parallel to the points.

Meter X is an ammeter since it is connected in series and meter Y is a voltmeter because it is connected in parallel.

Two metal spheres are hanging from nylon threads. When you bring the spheres close to each other, they tend to attract. Based on
Tamiku [17]

Explanation:

In the given question, the two metal spheres were hanged with the nylon thread.

When these two spheres were brought close together, they attracted each other. The attraction between these spheres is the result of the opposite charges between them.

The possible ways by which these two metal spheres can be charged are by induction that is touching the metal or by rubbing them.

During induction, the same charges are transferred to each sphere. In this case, either both the spheres will be negatively charged or positively charged.

It is not possible that after the sphere touch each other they will cling together because the same charge repels each other and during touching, if one sphere is neutral, then the charged one will transfer the same charge. And as we know that same charge repel each other therefore they will repel each other.

Use the following equation to help you answer the question. The peak intensity of radiation from a star named Sigma is 2 x 10 6
puteri [66]

Answer:

1449 K

Explanation:

The surface temperature of a star is related to its peak wavelength by Wien's displacement law:

T=\frac{b}{\lambda}

where

T is the surface temperature

b is Wien's displacement constant

\lambda=2\cdot 10^{-6} m

So the surface temperature of the star is

T=\frac{2.898 \cdot 10^{-3} Km}{2\cdot 10^{-6} m}=1449 K
