Will increasing length and cross-sectional area increase the resistance of an object?

Physics
1 answer:
Klio2033 [76]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Increasing length increases resistance

increasing cross sectional area reduces the resistance

.

Explanation:

The formula for resistance of an object is

r = d \frac{l}{a}

where r is resistance, d is resistivity of the material, l is length of material and a is cross sectional area of the object. This equation shows us that resistance is directly proportional to length and inversely proportional to cross sectional area. Hence, increasing length increases resistance while increasing cross sectional area reduces the resistance.

If these 2 variables are varied to the same extent, the net effect can be zero on the resistance.

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

Explanation:

time of flight t = 2·V·sinθ/g

= (2 * 6.0m/s * sin35º) / 9.8m/s²

= 0.702 s

The body travels for this much time and cover horizontal displacement x from the point of lunch

So, use kinematic equation for horizontal motion

horizontal displacement

x = Vcosθ*t + ½at²

2.9 m = 6.0m/s * cos35º * 0.702s + ½a * (0.702s)²

a = -2.23 m/s²

This is the horizontal acceleration of the object.

Since the object is subject to only electric force in horizontal direction, this acceleration is due to electric force only

Therefore,the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile will be

F = m*|a|

= 0.015kg * 2.23m/s²

= 0.0335 N

Thus, the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

The amount of energy that must be absorbed or lost to raise or lower the temperature of 1 g of liquid water by 1°c _____.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

4.2 J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity: This is defined as the amount of a heat required to rise a unit mass of a substance through a temperature of 1 K

From specific heat capacity,

Q = cmΔt.............................. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of energy absorbed or lost, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, Δt = Temperature rise.

Given: m = 1 g = 0.001 kg, Δt = 1 °C

Constant : c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 0.001×4200(1)

Q = 4.2 J.

Hence the energy absorbed or lost = 4.2 J

Which best explains how the diffraction pattern observed in young’s experiment supports the wave theory of light?.
KIM [24]

Answer: the airy pattern can only arise from wave propagation

Explanation:if particles went in straight lines through a slit, they would progate linearly and not interfere. The airy pattern arises from diffraction as waves interfere, producing peaks (constructive interference where peaks of waves from each slit coincide) and troughs (destructive interference where peaks and troughs of waves from each slit cancel out). If intensity rather than field is measured nodes occur where 0 values line up instead of troughs
