R = 0.407Ω.

The resistance  R of a particular conductor is related to the resistivity ρ of the material by  the equation R = ρL/A, where ρ is the material resistivity, L is the length of the material and A is the cross-sectional area of ​​the material.

To calculate the resistance R of a wire made of a material with resistivity of 3.2x10⁻⁸Ω.m, the length of the wire is 2.5m and its diameter is 0.50mm.

We have to use the equation R = ρL/A but first we have to calculate the cross-sectional area of the wire which is a circle. So, the area of a circle is given by A = πr², with r = d/2. The cross-sectional area of the wire is A = πd²/4.  Then:

R =[(3.2x10⁻⁸Ω.m)(2.5m)]/[π(0.5x10⁻³m)²/4]

R = 8x10⁻⁸Ω.m²/1.96x10⁻⁷m²

R = 0.407Ω

What is true of an object pulled inward in an electric field?
slava [35]

Answer:

option b

Explanation:

There is an object pulled inward in an electric field.

We have to find out of the four options given which is true.

a) The object has a neutral charge is false since when electric field pulls the object inward, there is a charge inside.

b) The object has a charge opposite that of the field, this option is correct since there will be an equal and opposite charge created by the object

c) The object has a negative charge will be correct only if the original charge was positive hence wrong

d) The object has a charge the same as that of the field is incorrect since this would be opposite the charge

So only option b is right

The drawing shows three identical springs hanging from the ceiling. Nothing is attached to the first spring, whereas a 4.50-N bl
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

a. 30 N / m

b. 9.0 N

Explanation:

Given that

Unstretched length of the spring, L_o = 20.0cm = 0.2m

a) When the mass of 4.5N is hanging from the second spring, then extended length Is

L_1 = 35.0cm =  0.35m

So, the change in spring length when mass hangs is

x =  L_1 - L_o

= (0.35 - 0.20) m

= 0.15m

As spring are identical

Let us assume that the spring constant be "k", so at equilibrium

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

kx =  W =  4.50

k= \frac{4.50}{x} = \frac{4.50}{0.15}

= 30 N / m

b)  Now for the third spring, stretched the length of spring is

L_2 = 50cm = 0.5m

So, the change in spring length is

x'= L_2 - L_o

= (0.5-0.20)m

=  0.30m

At equilibrium,

Restoring Force on spring = Block weightage

Now using all mentioned and computed values in above,

W'= kx'

= 30(0.3)

= 9.0 N

Which one of the following represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom? (arranged as n, l, m l ,
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

The correct option that represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom is;

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2.

Explanation:

To solve the question, we note that the available options where the set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom are arranged as n, l, m l , and ms are;

4, 4, 4, 1/2

4, 3, -3, 1/2

4, 3, 0, 0

4, 5, 7, -1/2

4, 4, -5, 1/2

Let us label them as a to as follows

(a) 4, 4, 4, 1/2

(b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2

(c) 4, 3, 0, 0

(d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2

(e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2

Next we note the rules for the assignment and arrangement of quantum numbers are as follows

Number                                   Symbol                Possible values

Principal Quantum Number  .......n........................1, 2, 3, ......n

Angular momentum quantum

number...............................................l.........................0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)

Magnetic Quantum Number........m₁......................-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l  

Spin Quantum Number.................m_s.....................+1/2, -1/2

We are meant to analyze each of the arrangement for acceptability.

Therefore for (a),

we note that the angular momentum quantum number, l =4 , is equal to the principal quantum number n =4 which violates the rule as the maximum value of the angular momentum quantum number is (n-1) where the maximum value of the principal quantum number is n.

Therefore (a) is not acceptable.

(b) Here we note that

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -3 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (b) 4, 3, -3, 1/2 represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(c) Here we have

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 3 ∈ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 0 ∈ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 0 ∉ (+1/2, -1/2) → not acceptable

Therefore (c) 4, 3, 0, 0 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(d) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 5 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = 7 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = -1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (d) 4, 5, 7, -1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

(e) Here we have;

The principal quantum number n = 4 ∈ (1, 2, 3, ......n) → acceptable

The angular momentum quantum number l = 4 ∉ (0, 1, 2, .......(n - 1)) → not acceptable

The magnetic quantum number m₁ = -5 ∉ (-l, ..., -1, 0, 1,.....,l)  → acceptable

The spin quantum number m_s = 1/2 ∈ (+1/2, -1/2) → acceptable

Therefore (e) 4, 4, -5, 1/2 does not represents an acceptable set of quantum numbers for an electron in an atom.

Trace fossils are recognized as evidence of which pre-existing life? plants plants and animals neither plants nor animals animal
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

a fossil of a footprint, trail, burrow, or other trace of an animal rather than of the animal itself.

Explanation:

Trace fossils are the indirect evidence of life in the past, such as the footprints, tracks, burrows, borings, and feces left behind by animals, rather than the preserved remains of the actual animal body itself.

Fossil is the naturally preserved remains of plants and animals which somehow get trapped in amber, hair, petrified wood, oil, coal, and DNA remnants.
