Answer:

154.83 W

Explanation:

Applyying,

P = V²/R..................... Equation 1

Where P = power dissipated, V = voltage R = resistance

But,

R = Lρ/A................. Equation 2

Where L = length of the wire, A = crosssectional area, ρ = resistivity of the wire.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

P = V²/(Lρ/A)

P = AV²/Lρ........................ Equation 3

From the question,

Given: L = 30 cm = 0.3 m, ρ = 1.69 x 10⁻⁸Ω⋅m, V = 1 V.

But,

A = πd²/4, Where d = 1 mm

A = (3.14×0.001²/4) = 7.85×10⁻⁷ m²

Substitute these values into equation 3

P = (7.85×10⁻⁷×1²)/(0.3×1.69 x 10⁻⁸)

P = 154.83 W

Weeds are very important agronomically because they reduce the yield of crops in three ways: by competing with the crop for water, light and nutrients, by interfering with crop harvest, and by contaminating harvested products with weed seeds and toxins. Weeds can reduce yield up to 50% and are responsible for millions of dollars in crop losses each year.

It’s biotic factor would be competition as Competition can be defined as an interaction between organisms or species, in which the fitness of one is lowered by the presence of another.

A woman holds a book by placing it between her hands such that she presses at right angles to the front and back covers. The boo

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to make a free body diagram of the book and the forces that interact on it. In the picture below you can see the free body diagram with these forces.

The person holding the book is compressing it with his hands, thus exerting a couple of forces of equal magnitude and opposite direction with value F.

Now the key to solving this problem is to analyze the equilibrium condition (Newton's third law) on the x & y axes.

To find the weight of the book we simply multiply the mass of the book by gravity.

W = m*g

W = 1.3[kg] * 9.81[m/s^2]

W = 12.75 [N]

Assume that a satellite orbits mars 150km above its surface. Given that the mass of mars is 6.485 X 10^23kg, and the radius of m

Kisachek [45]

<span>3598 seconds The orbital period of a satellite is u=GM p = sqrt((4*pi/u)*a^3) Where p = period u = standard gravitational parameter which is GM (gravitational constant multiplied by planet mass). This is a much better figure to use than GM because we know u to a higher level of precision than we know either G or M. After all, we can calculate it from observations of satellites. To illustrate the difference, we know GM for Mars to within 7 significant figures. However, we only know G to within 4 digits. a = semi-major axis of orbit. Since we haven't been given u, but instead have been given the much more inferior value of M, let's calculate u from the gravitational constant and M. So u = 6.674x10^-11 m^3/(kg s^2) * 6.485x10^23 kg = 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2 The semi-major axis of the orbit is the altitude of the satellite plus the radius of the planet. So 150000 m + 3.396x10^6 m = 3.546x10^6 m Substitute the known values into the equation for the period. So p = sqrt((4 * pi / u) * a^3) p = sqrt((4 * 3.14159 / 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2) * (3.546x10^6 m)^3) p = sqrt((12.56636 / 4.3281x10^13 m^3/s^2) * 4.458782x10^19 m^3) p = sqrt(2.9034357x10^-13 s^2/m^3 * 4.458782x10^19 m^3) p = sqrt(1.2945785x10^7 s^2) p = 3598.025212 s Rounding to 4 significant figures, gives us 3598 seconds.</span>
