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

Physics

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.

Chanice drives her scooter 7 kilometers north. she stops for lunch and then drives 5 kilometers and then 1 km east again. what d
lord [1]

Distance covered is given as follows

1). 7 km North

2). 5 km North

3). 1 km East

Now total distance covered will be given as

d = d_1 + d_2 + d_3

d = 7 km + 5 km + 1 km

d = 13 km

Now in order to find the displacement we will show all with their directions

\vec d_1 = 7 + 5 = 12 km towards North

\vec d_2 = 1 km towards East

So total displacement is

\vec d = \vec d_1 + \vec d_2

\vec d = 12 \hat j + 1 \hat i

so net displacement will be

d = \sqrt{12^2 + 1^2} = 12.04 km

so displacement is 12.04 km

What is a synovial joint? (ANATOMY)
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

From Wikipedia:

"A synovial joint, also known as diarthrosis, joins bones or cartilage with a fibrous joint capsule that is continuous with the periosteum of the joined bones, constitutes the outer boundary of a synovial cavity, and surrounds the bones' articulating surfaces. The synovial cavity/joint is filled with synovial fluid."
