Answer:
Springs are made of a variety of materials including copper and various forms of steel. The most common is high carbon steel as it is cheap, easy to work and a couple of other important properties.
Copper springs exist as well, but copper is more expensive than steel. However, in an environment where corrosion resistance is important, copper springs are a good alternative.
Explanation:
Answer:
a) Resistivity=R.A/L
Here, R=500000ohm, L=1.6m, A=2pi* (0.14/2)*0.002 m2=0.00088.........we have converted quantities into SI units
Resistivity=R.A/L
=500000*0.00088/1.6 = 440/1.6= 275 ohm.meter
b) pskin/pinterior =275/4.8=57.3
For second part, correct option is (A), because cross section area is smaller.
The reason why icebergs float in the ocean has to do with temperature. Icebergs are colder than the ocean water and therefore the cold water is less dense than the warm water and this causes the Iceberg to float.
