3 0

Answer:

The answer to this question is given below in the explanation section.

Explanation:

Give the relation of resistance of wire with the length and thickness:

Resistance:

There is a resistance to the flow of an electric current through most conductors.

The length of wire increases

The thickness of wire decreases

The resistance of a long wire is greater then the resistance of a short wire because electrons collide with more ions as they pass through.

The relationship between resistance and wire length is proportional. The resistance of thin wire is greater then the resistance of a thick wire because a thin wire has fewer electrons to  carry the current.The relationship between resistance and the area of the cross section of wire is inversely proportional.

You considered the situation of moving a couch at a constant speed. You concluded that to move the couch at a constant speed, yo
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

The couch will remain stationary

Explanation:

Friction is the force that resist/opposes the  motion. It is the force that has to e overcome before an object can move.

Since the frictional force of 50 N  is required before the couch can move, applying 25 N can not overcome the frictional force of 50 N, so the couch will remain stationary.A force greater than 50 will be require to set the couch in motion

A 1200 kg car traveling at 60 mph quickly brakes to a halt. The kinetic energy of the car is converted to thermal energy of the
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

 ΔT = 59.9 ° C

Explanation:

For this exercise the brake energy is totally converted into heat

Let's calculate the vehicle energy

       K = ½ m v²

Let's reduce the units to the SI system

       v = 30 mph (1609.34 m / mile) (1h / 3600s) = 13.41 m / s

      Em = K = ½ 1200 13.41²

      K = 1.079 105 J

All this energy is transformed into heat

     Em = Q

The expression for heat is

     Q = m  c_{e} ΔT

     ΔT = Q / m c_{e}

The specific heat of iron is c_{e} = 450 J / Kg ºC

     ΔT = 1,079 105 / (4.0 450)

     ΔT = 59.9 ° C

Doss [256]
To find the pressure with a given data for the height, you are asked to get the hydraulic pressure. Hydraulic pressure has the following formula:

P = density*acceleration due to gravity*height

Assume that the density of seawater is the same as that for pure water,density = 1000 kg/m^3.

P = 1000 kg/m3*9.81m/s2*9100m
P = 89271000 Pascals or 89.271 megapascals

What happens to the current as we increase the amount of stepping of our transformer? Does this help explain why the primary was
matrenka [14]

Answer:

Current will decrease.

Explanation:

When we increase the number of stepping in transformer, the voltage will increase as its is directly proportional to the number of turn of stepping. Thus as the voltage will increase, current will decrease. As per the equation of ideal transformer,   E1 / E2 = I2 / I1

E1 and E2 are the voltages in primary and secondary winding and I1 and I2 are the current.

As the number of turns will be increased more inevitable losses will be generated that dissipates heat thus warming the primary.

Though the conservation of energy is obeyed but losses occur in this scenario hence step-up transformers cannot be used to create free energy.

Two boys with masses of 40 kg and 60 kg stand on a horizontal frictionless surface holding the ends of a light 10-m long rod. Th
kari74 [83]

When they meet the 40-kg boy will have moved a distance of 6 m.

Displacement of the 40 kg boy

The displacement of the 40 kg boy is calculated from the principle of center mass.

X(40 kg) = (60 x 10 m    +  40 x 0)/(40 kg + 60 kg)

X(40 kg) = (600)/(100) = 6 m

X(60 kg) = (60 x 0    +  40 x 10 m)/(40 kg + 60 kg)

X(60 kg) = (400)/(100) = 4 m

Thus, when they meet the 40-kg boy will have moved a distance of 6 m.
