The only function of the pulleys in the diagram is to change the direction

of the force applied to raise the bricks.

<h3>What is a Pulley?</h3>

A pulley is a wheel which has a flexible rope on its rim and helps to

transmit energy and motion.

In the diagram given, we can see that the pulley is used to raise a mass of

block by three people. They pull the rope horizontally in order to raise the

block vertically. This means that it was used to change the direction of the

applied force.

To provide some perspective on the dimensions of atomic defects, consider a metal specimen that has a dislocation density of 105

-Dominant- [34]

Explanation:

LD₁ = 10⁵ mm⁻²

LD₂ = 10⁴mm⁻²

V = 1000 mm³

Distance = (LD)(V)

Distance₁ = (10⁵mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 10×10⁷mm = 10×10⁴m

Distance₂ = (10⁹mm⁻²)(1000mm³) = 1×10¹² mm = 1×10⁹ m

Conversion to miles:

Distance₁ = 10×10⁴ m / 1609m = 62 miles

Distance₂ = 10×10⁹m / 1609 m = 621,504 miles.

A 4.0 m length of gold wire is connected to a 1.5 V battery, and a current of 4.0 mA flows through it. What is the diameter of t

sladkih [1.3K]

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of gold wire, l = 4 m

Voltage of battery, V = 1.5 V

Current, I = 4 mA

The resistivity of gold, $\rho=2.44\times 10^{-8}\ \Omega-m$

Resistance in terms of resistivity is given by :

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

Also, V = IR

So,

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

A is area of wire,

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi r^2}$ , r is radius, r = d/2 (diameter=d)

$\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{\rho l}{\pi (d/2)^2}\\\\\dfrac{V}{I}=\dfrac{4\rho l}{\pi d^2}\\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\rho l I}{V\pi}} \\\\d=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\times 2.44\times 10^{-8}\times 4\times 4\times 10^{-3}}{1.5\times \pi}} \\\\d=18.2\ \mu m$

Out of four option, near option is (C) 17 μm.
