Answer:

Magnitude = 55

Quantity = Speed

Explanation:

We are told that the speed is 55 mph. This implies that the magnitude is 55 while the unit is mph.

Also, physical quantities are usually things that can be measured such as distance, voltage, temperature e.t.c

A fish-tank heater is rated at 96 W when connected to 120 V. The heating element is a coil of Nichrome wire. When uncoiled, the

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

0.232 mm.

Explanation:

Power, P = 96 W

Voltage, V = 120 V

Length of wire, l = 4.2 m

Let r be the radius of the wire.

Resistivity of nichrome, ρ = 1.5 x 10^-6 ohm metre

P = V^2 / R

R = 120 x 120 / 96 = 150 ohm

$R = \rho \frac{l}{A}=\rho \frac{l}{\pi r^{2}}$

$r^2= \rho \frac{l}{\pi \times R}$

$r^2= \1.5\times10^{-6} \frac{4.2}{3.14 \times 150}$

r = 1.16 x 10^-4 m

Diameter = 2 x r = 2 x 1.16 x 10^-4 = 2.32 x 10^-4 m = 0.232 mm

Thus, the diameter of the wire is 0.232 mm.
