If you have a lump of solid at its melting point ... like ice at 32°F ...
you have to put a certain amount of heat into it just to change it
to water at 32°F. That amount of heat, that's used just to change
a solid lump into liquid without changing its temperature, is called
the heat of fusion for that substance.
The number is different for every substance.
For water, it takes 336 joules of heat to melt 1 gram of ice
into 1 gram of water, all at 32°F (0°C).
That's an enormous latent heat of fusion ... more than almost any
other known substance. That's why ice is such a good choice
when you need something to put in your drink to cool it down.
Ice absorbs a huge amount of heat before it melts and the drink
gets watered down.
The electrons are already there. They are freely moving through the conductor.
Uranus is tilted so far that it essentially orbits the sun on its side, with the axis of its spin nearly pointing at the star
Answer:
the resistance of the longer one is twice as big as the resistance of the shorter one.
Explanation:
Given that :
For the shorter cylindrical resistor
Length = L
Diameter = D
Resistance = R1
For the longer cylindrical resistor
Length = 8L
Diameter = 4D
Resistance = R2
So;
We all know that the resistance of a given material can be determined by using the formula :

where;
A = πr²

For the shorter cylindrical resistor ; we have:

since 2 r = D


For the longer cylindrical resistor ; we have:

since 2 r = D



Sp;we can equate the shorter cylindrical resistor to the longer cylindrical resistor as shown below :




Thus; the resistance of the longer one is twice as big as the resistance of the shorter one.
