When solid material expands in response to an increase in temperature (thermal expansion), it can increase in length in a process known as linear expansion. for an example application of expansion and contraction.

examples =
(1) Changing of shape and dimensions of objects such as doors.
(2) Wall collapsing due to bulging.
(3) Cracking of glass tumbler due to heating.
(4) Bursting of metal pipes carrying hot water or steam are some of the disadvantages of thermal expansion of matter.

A circuit has a 10 Ω resistor connected to a 1.5 V dry cell. What is the current that can flow in the circuit?
ludmilkaskok [199]

Here is the highly detailed, arcane, complex, technical form of Ohm's Law that is needed in order to answer this question  ===>  I = V / R  .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Current = (1.5 V) / (10 Ω)

<em>Current = 0.15 Ampere</em>

Flying against the wind, an airplane travels 2670 km in 3 hours. Flying with the wind, the same plane travels 11,070 km in 9 hou
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

speed of plane in still air = 1060 km/h

speed of wind = 170 km/h

Explanation:

Let teh speed of plane in still air is vp and the speed of air is va.

Irt travels 2670 km in 3 hours against the wind

So,

vp - va = 2670 / 3 = 890 km/h ..... (1)

It travels 11070 km in 9 hours along the wind.

vp + va = 11070 / 9 = 1230 km/h .... (2)

Adding both the equations

2 vp = 2120

vp = 1060 km/h

and va = 1230 - vp = 1230 - 1060 = 170 km/h
