Answer:

100 m

Explanation:

From the question,

R = Lρ/A.................... Equation 1

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

But,

A = πr².................... Equation 2

Where r = radius of the wire.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

R = Lρ/πr²

Make L the subject of the equation

L = Rπr²/ρ...................... Equation 3

Given: R = 40 Ω, r = 5×10⁻⁴ m, ρ = 3.14×10⁻⁷ Ωm

Constant: π = 3.14

Substitute these values into equation 3

L = [40×3.14×( 5×10⁻⁴)²]/ (3.14×10⁻⁷)

L = 40×3.14×25×10⁻⁸/(3.14×10⁻⁷)

L = 100 m

Hence the length of the wire is 100 m

SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP!!! Indicate the reasons why the centripetal acceleration (and centripetal force) always point to the center
maxonik [38]
Well we know the correct answer cannot be "a" bcause velocity is tangent to the circlular path of an object experienting centripical motion. Velocity DOES NOT point inward in centripical motion.

we know the correct answer cannot be "b" because "t" stands for "time" which cannot point in any direction. so, time cannot point toward the center of a circle and therefore this answer must be incorrect.

I would choose answer choice "c" because both force and centripical acceleration point toward the center of the circle.

I do not think answer choice "d" can be correct because the velocity of the mass moves tangent to the circle. velocity = (change in position) / time. Therefore, by definition the mass is moving in the direction of the velocity which does not point to the center of the circle.

does this make sense? any questions?

Which of the following types of radiation can penetrate through paper but not through wood?
andrew-mc [135]
The type of radiation that can penetrate through paper, but not through wood is called beta rays. Beta rays can penetrate paper and air, but a thin piece of alimony can stop it. Gamma can cut through anything except lead and many inches of concrete. Alpha can be stopped by paper and not penetrated. The correct answer is B.
