Without using a micrometer screw gauge, how do I find the average diameter of a long piece of thin wire using a metre rule and a

uniform glass rod?​

Answer:

Wind the long piece of thin wire around the uniform glass rod multiple times, find the length of the total diameters using the metre ruler, and divide by the number of times you wound it around the rod.

Explanation:

Since the diameter of one long piece of thin wire is too thin to be measured by a metre ruler, you can wind it multiple times and push it side by side to get a length you can measure.

For example, if you wound it around 20 times and the total length of 20 diameters of the wire side-by-side is 2.0 cm, one winding, which is the diameter would be 2.0cm ÷ 20 = 0.10cm or 1mm.

Sally travels by car from one city to another. She drives for 26.0 min at 83.0 km/h, 52.0 min at 41.0 km/h, and 45.0 min at 60.0
Anna007 [38]
The average speed is determined by the following formula:

average speed = [sum of (speed * time for which that speed was traveled)] / total time

average speed = [(83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60] / [(26 + 52 + 45 + 15) / 60]
*note: The division by 60 is to convert minutes to hours. We see that the 60 cancels from the top and bottom of the division

average speed = 50.65 km/hr

The total distance traveled is equivalent to the numerator of the fraction we used in the first part. This is:
Distance = (83 * 26 + 41 * 52 + 60 * 45 + 0 * 15) / 60

Distance = 116.5 kilometers

zimovet [89]

Answer:

33.83W/m²

Explanation:

The intensity of the speake at the surface is

I = P/A

I = 2.03W / 0.06m²

I = 33.83W/m²

A 55 newton force applied on an object moves the object 10 meters in the same direction as the force. What is the value of work
kifflom [539]

Answer: Option D: 5.5×10²Joules

Explanation:

Work done is the product of applied force and displacement of the object in the direction of force.

W = F.s = F s cosθ

It is given that the force applied is, F = 55 N

The displacement in the direction of force, s = 10 m

The angle between force and displacement, θ = 0°

Thus, work done on the object:

W = 55 N × 10 m × cos 0° = 550 J = 5.5 × 10² J

Hence, the correct option is D.

A ray of light in glass strikes a water-glass interface at an angle of incidence equal to one-half the critical angle for that i
fomenos

Answer:

Explanation:

There will not be any internal reflection . it will be only refraction

critical angle = θ

Sinθ = 1 / μg

μg = 1.43 / 1.33 =

Sinθ = 1.33 / 1.43

= .93

θ = 68.44

angle of incidence i = 68.44 / 2

= 34.22

Sin i / Sin r = μw = 1.33 / 1.43  

= .93

sin 34.22  / sinθ₁ = .93 , θ₁ is angle of refraction.

sinθ₁ = sin 34.22 / .93

= .5623 / .93

= .6047

θ₁ = 37 degree Ans

Determine the amount of time for polonium-210 to decay to one fourth its original quantity. The half-life of polonium-210 is 138
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

276 days

Explanation:

1/4 th of the original means <u><em>2 half lives</em></u>

1 half life = 138 days

So,

2 half lives = 276 days
