The resistance of a conductor is given by
where L is the length of the wire,
the resistivity of the material and A the cross-sectional area.
We can see that if all the other quantities do not change, if the new length of the conductor is 4 times the original length:
, then the new resistance is also 4 times the original value:
Words less true are seldom if ever spoken.
Answer:
5.714 hours / day
Explanation:
<u>Calculate the hours used in that week </u>
120000 / 3000 = 120 / 3 = 40 hours a week
<u>Calculate the amount it is used in one day</u>
40 / 7 = 5.71428571 hours or 5.714 hours/day
Answer:
And the force of ( Attraction or repulsion) between the poles A and D ( maximum or minimum)
Answer:
D. Both occur between objects independently whether they are in contact or not.
Explanation:
- The gravitational force is a force that is exerted between two (or more) objects having mass. This force is always attractive and its magnitude is given by
where G is the gravitational constant, m1 and m2 are the two masses, and r is the distance between the two masses.
- The electrical force is a force that is exerted between two (or more) objects having electrical charge. It can be either attractive or repulsive, depending on the sign of the two charges, and its magnitude is given by
where k is the Coulomb's constant, q1 and q2 are the two charges, and r the distance between the two charges.
Looking at both formulas, we see that the two forces are present even when the two objects are not in contact with each other (in fact, r can assume any value in the formula). They are said to be non-contact forces. Therefore, the correct option is
D. Both occur between objects independently whether they are in contact or not.
