$Specific\ resistance\ =resistivity\\
From\ formula\ on \ resistance:\ R= \frac{pL}{A}\ p-resistivity,\ L-length,\\ A-area\ of\ cross\ section\\
p= \frac{R*A}{L}= \frac{1,5Ohm*0,025*10^{-4}m^2 }{80* 10^{-2}m }=0,0003515625 Ohm*m$

Pamela drove her car 999999 kilometers and used 999 liters of fuel. she wants to know how many kilometers (k)(k)left parenthesis

Vanyuwa [196]

When the relationship between two variables are said to be proportional, it means that one variable is a constant multiple of the other variable. They are related by a constant of proportionality, usually denoted as k.

In this problem, the dependent variable is the distance in kilometers. Your mileage is limited with the amount of fuel you have. Thus, the independent variable is the liters of fuel. When these two are proportional, it could be expressed as

distance = k * liters of fuel, such that
distance/liters of fuel = k

By variation,

distance,1/liters of fuel,1 = distance,2/liters of fuel,2, where 1 denotes situation 1 and 2 denotes situation 2. Therefore,

999999 km /<span>999 liters = x km /</span><span>121212 liters, where x is the unknown distance. We can now therefore find the value of x.

x = (999999*121212)/999
x = 121333212 kilometers</span>

The human ear canal is, on average, 2.5cm long and aids in hearing by acting like a resonant cavity that is closed on one end an

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

$3400$ Hz

Explanation:

We know that

1 cm = 0.01 m

$L$ = Length of the human ear canal = 2.5 cm = 0.025 m

$V$ = Speed of sound = 340 ms⁻¹

$f$ = First resonant frequency

The human ear canal behaves as a closed pipe and for a closed pipe, nth resonant frequency is given as

$f = \frac{(2n - 1)V}{4L}$

for first resonant frequency, we have n = 1

Inserting the values

$f = \frac{(2(1) - 1) 340}{4(0.025)}$

$f = \frac{340}{4(0.025)}$

$f = 3400$ Hz

When numbers are very small or very large, it is convenient to either express the value in scientific notation and/or by using a

Oxana [17]

Answer:

5 mg, $5\cdot 10^{-3}g$

Explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite the mass in grams using scientific notation.

we have:

m = 0.005 g

To rewrite it in scientific notation, we must count by how many digits we have to move the dot on the right - in this case three. So in scientific notation is

$m=5\cdot 10^{-3}g$

If we want to convert into milligrams, we must remind that

1 g = 1000 mg

So we can use the proportion

$1 g : 1000 mg = 0.005 g : x$

and we find

$x=\frac{(1000 mg)(0.005 g)}{1 g}=5 mg$
