A 1.20-m cylindrical rod of diameter 0.570 cm is connected to a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 1

nasty-shy [4]

(a) $1.72\cdot 10^{-5} \Omega m$

The resistance of the rod is given by:

$R=\rho \frac{L}{A}$ (1)

where

$\rho$ is the material resistivity

L = 1.20 m is the length of the rod

A is the cross-sectional area

The radius of the rod is half the diameter: $r=0.570 cm/2=0.285 cm=2.85\cdot 10^{-3} m$ , so the cross-sectional area is

$A=\pi r^2=\pi (2.85\cdot 10^{-3} m)^2=2.55\cdot 10^{-5} m^2$

The resistance at 20°C can be found by using Ohm's law. In fact, we know:

- The voltage at this temperature is V = 15.0 V

- The current at this temperature is I = 18.6 A

So, the resistance is

$R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{15.0 V}{18.6 A}=0.81 \Omega$

And now we can re-arrange the eq.(1) to solve for the resistivity:

$\rho=\frac{RA}{L}=\frac{(0.81 \Omega)(2.55\cdot 10^{-5} m^2)}{1.20 m}=1.72\cdot 10^{-5} \Omega m$

(b) $8.57\cdot 10^{-4} /{\circ}C$

First of all, let's find the new resistance of the wire at 92.0°C. In this case, the current is

I = 17.5 A

So the resistance is

$R=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{15.0 V}{17.5 A}=0.86 \Omega$

The equation that gives the change in resistance as a function of the temperature is

$R(T)=R_0 (1+\alpha(T-T_0))$

where

$R(T)=0.86 \Omega$ is the resistance at the new temperature (92.0°C)

$R_0=0.81 \Omega$ is the resistance at the original temperature (20.0°C)

$\alpha$ is the temperature coefficient of resistivity

$T=92^{\circ}C$

$T_0 = 20^{\circ}$

Solving the formula for $\alpha$ , we find

$\alpha=\frac{\frac{R(T)}{R_0}-1}{T-T_0}=\frac{\frac{0.86 \Omega}{0.81 \Omega}-1}{92C-20C}=8.57\cdot 10^{-4} /{\circ}C$

What is the kinetic energy of a 200 kg satellite as it follows a circular orbit of radius 8x106m around the earth?

motikmotik

Given the equation for the Speed of a Satellite

v = SqRt{Gravitational Constant}{Mass of Earth} divided by the radius given in your problem

we have:

(square root whole term on right side)

v = G Me
———
r

so. (6.67x10^-11)(5.97x10^24)
___________________
(8.0x10^6)

v = 7055 m/s (which is reasonable)

so utilize the Kinetic Energy Formula

KE = 1/2mv^2

KE = 1/2(200)(7055)^2

KE = 4.977x10^9 J
