Answer:

Total: 200 meters, Displacement: 100 meters South

Explanation:

First, add up the meters traveled to get the total distance.

50m + 150m = 200m

Lastly, displacement is the shortest distance from the initial position to the final position. The person first walked 50 meters north but then traveled 150 meters south. Therefore, their displacement was 100 meters south.

50m - 150m = -100m

(Note: Directions are vectors. North and East are positive vectors while South and West are negative)

Find the resistance of wire of<br>0.65m Radius 0.25<br>and<br>resistivity 3x10-6 OHM<br>​
densk [106]

Complete Question:

Find the resistance of a wire of length 0.65 m, radius 0.25 mm and resistivity 3 * 10^{-6} ohm-metre.

Answer:

Resistance = 9.95 Ohms

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Length = 0.65 m

Radius = 0.25 mm to meters = 0.00025 m

Resistivity = 3 * 10^{-6} ohm-metre.

To find the resistance of the wire;

Mathematically, resistance is given by the formula;

Resistance = P \frac {L}{A}

Where;

  • P is the resistivity of the material.
  • L is the length of the material.
  • A is the cross-sectional area of the material.

First of all, we would find the cross-sectional area of the wire.

Area of circle = πr²

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Area  = 3.142 * (0.00025)²

Area = 3.142 * 6.25 * 10^{-8}

Area = 1.96 * 10^{-7} m²

Now, to find the resistance of the wire;

Resistance = 3 * 10^{-6} * \frac {0.65}{1.96 * 10^{-7}}

Resistance = 3 * 10^{-6} * 3316326.531

<em>Resistance = 9.95 Ohms </em>

The average diameter of one tennis ball in a package of three is 6.8 cm. Which of the following is the combined volume of all th
Crank

We want to find the combined volume of 3 tennis balls. We will get that the combined volume is 493.7 cm^3

First, remember that for a sphere of diameter D, the volume is:

V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*(\frac{D}{2})^3

Where 3.14 is pi.

Here we know that the average diameter of a tennis ball is 6.8cm, then we can replace that in the above equation to find the volume (in average) of a single tennis ball:

V = \frac{4}{3}*3.14*(\frac{6.8cm}{2})^3 = 164.5 cm^3

Now, in 3 balls of tennis, the combined volume will be 3 times the above one, this is:

3*V = 3*164.5cm^3 = 493.7 cm^3

1. While John is traveling along an interstate highway, he notices a 160-mile marker as he passes through town. Later John passe
pogonyaev

Number of miles that marker shows when passes through town= 160 miles.

Number of miles that marker shows currently to John = 115 miles.

We need to find the distance between town and John's current location.

For the problem, we can clearly see that Town is at 160 miles away but when John passes the marker shows 115 miles.

So, it's just the difference between 160 miles and 115 miles.

In order to find that difference, we need to subtract those two numbers.

160miles - 115miles = 45 miles.

So, we could say the distance between town and John's current location is 45 miles.
