If, according to Newton’s third law, every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction, then how can motion ever occur? Wouldn’t

every force be canceled out by its reaction force?

No, if you push an object, the other side is also "pulling it".

Motion occurs because of the equal and opposite reaction.

Motion could not occur if the action force and the reaction force

both acted on the SAME OBJECT.


But they don't. They act on different objects.


The pusher applies the action force to the thing he's pushing, and

the thing he's pushing applies the reaction force to the pusher.


Newton never said that equal and opposite forces cancel out

when they act on two different objects. Only when they act on

the same object.

Two wires with the same resistance have the same diameter but different lengths. If wire 1 has length L 1 and wire 2 has length
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Length of wire 1=L_1

Length of wire 2=L_2

Resistivity of copper wire=\rho_1=1.7\times 10^{-5}\Omega-m

Resistivity of aluminum wire=\rho_2=2.82\times 10^{-5}\Omega-m

Wire 1=Copper wire

Wire 2=Aluminum wire

Diameter of both wires are same and resistance of both wires are also same.

We know that

Resistance =\frac{\rho l}{A}

When diameter of wires are same then their cross section area are also same .

l=\frac{RA}{\rho}

When resistance and area are same then the length of wire depend upon the resistivity of wire .

The length of wire is inversely proportional to resistivity.

When resistivity is greater then the length of wire will be short and when the resistivity  is small then the length of wire will be large.

\rho_1

Therefore, L_1>L_2

Hence, the length of wire 1 (copper wire) is greater than the length of wire 2 (aluminum).

\frac{L_1}{L_2}=\frac{\frac{RA}{1.7\times 10^{-5}}}{\frac{RA}{2.82\times 10^{-5}}}=1.66

L_1=1.66L_2

2. If an em' of Hg weighs 13.6 g, what is the mass of a cylinder of: Sem and height 20 Cm
Yuri [45]

Answer:

Let the mass of mercury  m= 13.6 gm and volume be V=1cm3.

Now change in volume when it is heated upto 50oC,

ΔV=VαΔT

ΔV=1×1.82×10−4×50

ΔV=91×10−4cm3 

New volume V1=V+ΔV=1.0091cm3

New density ρ=V1m=1.009113.6=13.48gcm−3
