Answer:

For example, an earthquake of magnitude 5.5 releases about 32 times as much energy as an earthquake measuring 4.5. Another way to look at this is that it takes about 900 magnitude 4.5 earthquakes to equal the energy released in a single 6.5 earthquake.

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).

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

$L_1=1.66L_2$
