A 0.500-V potential difference is maintained across a 1.50-m length of tungsten wire that has a cross-sectional area of 0.800 mm

2. What is the current in the wire
Physics

Answer:

5.95 A

Explanation:

From the question

R = ρL/A..................... Equation 1

Where R = resistance of the tungsten wire, ρ = Resistivity of the tungsten wire, L = length, A = cross sectional area.

Given: L = 1.5 m, A = 0.8 mm² = 0.8×10⁻⁶ m, ρ = 5.60×10⁻⁸ Ω.m

Substitute these values into equation 1

R = 1.5(5.60×10⁻⁸)/0.8×10⁻⁶

R = 0.084 Ω.

Finally, using Ohm law,

V = IR

Where V = Voltage, I = current

Make I the subject of the equation

I = V/R............... Equation 2

I = 0.5/0.084

I = 5.95 A

mezya [45]

Answer:

Before giving an injection, a nurse dabs some alcohol onto the patient`s arm. This makes the patient`s skin feels cold. Explain Why ?

<em> Evaporative cooling makes this to be possible</em>

Explanation:

The concept

For a liquid to evaporate, there must be a breakdown of the bond between the molecules of the liquid. These bonds are broken when the molecules gain heat energy. So basically evaporation occurs when the molecules of the substance gain energy in form of heat.

Our Scenario

Just like the way our body excretes sweat on a sunny day, alcohol takes energy from the skin to evaporate. The bond holding the molecules of alcohol breaks faster due to its low boiling point and this account why it evaporates faster. The sudden evaporation of alcohol when dabbed on the skin results in quick utilization of heat energy making the skin feel cold for some time.

The utilization of heat energy from the skin results in evaporation cooling which makes the skin feel colder.

masya89 [10]

Answer:

That is a very broad question. One thing that does not seem to be considered is the depletion of the ozone layer at high altitudes.

In the 1960's chlorofluorcarbons (CFC,s) became popular as refrigerants, spray can propellants, etc.  In January 1989 the Montreal Protocol was passed which has greatly reduced the use of these substances. However, it may be several decades before the ozone layer can be replaced and again absorb harmful ulraviolet rays that may be partly responsible for the increase in global warming.  

(One chlorine atom at high altitudes can be responsible for the destruction of 100,000 molecules of ozone - catalytic reaction)
