what is the resistance of a 12m long wire having radius( 2*10 to the power - 4) and resistivity (3.14*10 to the power - 8)ohmM
Arisa [49]
R = ρl/A

Where R = Resistance in Ohms, Ω, ρ = Resistivity in Ωm, l = Length in m.

Area in m²

ρ = Resistivity = 3.14 * 10⁻⁸ Ωm,  Length l = 12m, 

Area = πr² = π* (2*10⁻⁴)² m² ≈ 3.14 * (2*10⁻⁴)² m²


R = ρl/A

    ≈ 3.14 * 10⁻⁸ * 12 / (3.14 * (2*10⁻⁴)²)

     ≈ 3

Resistance, R ≈ 3 Ω

Pluto has a shape that is nearly round, and it orbits the Sun. It has five known moons. Why is it called a dwarf planet and not
Vikentia [17]

Pluto has a shape that is nearly round, and it orbits the Sun. It has five known moons. It is called a dwarf planet and not a planet because its orbit is not cleared of like-sized or larger objects

Answer: Option B

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to the International Astronomical Union (IAU), Pluto has been mentioned as Dwarf Planet as it doesn't hold the standardisation to be counted as a Planet.

According to the standard criteria, a planet must have been surrounded by the orbit of the Sun, it must have significant mass to have a gravitational pull and hence, circular shape, and should have isolated surrounding.

But, Pluto has various celestial bodies in its vicinity that are larger in size. Hence, as concluded by the Union, any celestial body that does not has clear surrounding, is regarded as Dwarf Planet just like Pluto.

What did Thomson’s model of the atom include that Dalton’s model did not have?
astraxan [27]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Dalton's model of atom states that every matter is made up of atoms and these atoms are indivisible in nature.

On the other hand, Thomson's model of atom states that there are small particles present in an atom that has positive or negative charges.

Thomson's model of atom is also known as plum pudding model where negatively charged particles are represented by plum and positively charged particles are represented by pudding.

Thus, we can conclude that Thomson’s model of the atom include smaller particles that Dalton’s model did not have.
