Answer:

R₂ / R₁ = D / L

Explanation:

The resistance of a metal is

        R = ρ L / A

Where ρ is the resistivity of aluminum, L is the length of the resistance and A its cross section

We apply this formal to both configurations

Small face measurements (W W)

The length is

         L = W

Area  

         A = W W = W²

        R₁ = ρ W / W² = ρ / W

Large face measurements (D L)

       Length L = D= 2W

       Area     A = W L

     R₂ = ρ D / WL = ρ 2W / W L = 2 ρ/L

The relationship is

    R₂ / R₁ = 2W²/L

What mass needs to be attached to a spring with a force constant of 7N/m in order to make a simple harmonic oscillator oscillate
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Mass will be 4.437 kg

Explanation:

We have given force constant k = 7 N/m

Time period of oscillation T = 5 sec

So angular frequency \omega =\frac{2\pi }{T}=\frac{2\times 3.14}{5}=1.256rad/sec

We know that angular frequency is given by

\omega =\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

1.256 =\sqrt{\frac{7}{m}}

Squaring both side

1.577 =\frac{7}{m}

m = 4.437 kg

Answer:

C) rift valley

Explanation:

A rift valley is a lowland region formed by the interaction of Earth's tectonic plates. This small rift valley has a typical formation—long, narrow, and deep. It was formed by the Thingvellir rift, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are tearing, or rifting, apart over a hotspot on the island of Iceland.

Why is a solution of 4% acetic acid in 95% ethanol used to wash the crude aldol-dehydration product?
raketka [301]

A cold acetic acid solution is used to wash the residue of the reagent in preparation of an aldol condensation product after vacuum filtration.  The main reason in washing with the acetic acid rinse is to neutralize any sodium hydroxide.

Lauren wants to know which location in her apartment is best for growing African violets. She has three African violets. She put
Harrizon [31]
First, before determining which variable is which, we go over the definition of each.
The independent variable is the one which is intentionally changed in order to investigate its effect on the dependent variable.
The dependent variable is monitored and changes occur in it due to the changing conditions of the independent variable.

In this case, the location of the African violets is the independent variable as it is intentionally changed, while the rate of growth of the African violets is the dependent variable as it is being measured.
