Answer: E. 2A

Explanation:

Amplitude(A) of a wave is the displacement of a body from its position of rest. The maximum value of the amplitude is the crest and the minimum value is the trough.

For a wave to make a cycle, it has to move to and from from its point of displacement.

If the red spot on the string completes a cycle, this means it must have pass through the crest and the trough making it 2 amplitudes.

For a metal that has an electrical conductivity of 7.1 x 107 (Ω-m)-1, do the following: (a) Calculate the resistance (in Ω) of a
jonny [76]

Answer:

(a) 0.0178 Ω

(b) 3.4 A

(c) 6.4 x 10⁵ A/m²

(d) 9.01 x 10⁻³ V/m

Explanation:

(a)

σ = Electrical conductivity = 7.1 x 10⁷ Ω-m⁻¹

d = diameter of the wire = 2.6 mm = 2.6 x 10⁻³ m

Area of cross-section of the wire is given as

A = (0.25) π d²

A = (0.25) (3.14) (2.6 x 10⁻³)²

A = 5.3 x 10⁻⁶ m²

L = length of the wire = 6.7 m

Resistance of the wire is given as

R=\frac{L}{A\sigma }

R=\frac{6.7}{(5.3\times10^{-6})(7.1\times10^{7}) }

R = 0.0178 Ω

(b)

V = potential drop across the ends of wire = 0.060 volts

i = current flowing in the wire

Using ohm's law, current flowing is given as

i = \frac{V}{R}

i = \frac{0.060}{0.0178}

i = 3.4 A

(c)

Current density is given as

J = \frac{i}{A}

J = \frac{3.4}{5.3\times10^{-6}}

J = 6.4 x 10⁵ A/m²

(d)

Magnitude of electric field is given as

E = \frac{J}{\sigma }

E = \frac{6.4 \times 10^{5}}{ 7.1 \times 10^{7}}

E = 9.01 x 10⁻³ V/m

Describe electrons.<br> Location:<br> Charge:<br> Mass
irga5000 [103]
Protons, neutrons and electrons. Both protons and neutrons have a mass of 1 amu and are found in the nucleus. However, protons have a charge of +1, and neutrons are uncharged. Electrons have a mass of approximately 0 amu, orbit the the nucleus, and have a charge of -1.

A soft drink (mostly water) flows in a pipe at a beverage plant with a mass flow rate that would fill 220 cans, 0.355 - l each,
Alona [7]
Flow rate = 220*0.355 l/m = 78.1 l/min = 1.3 l/s = 0.0013 m^3/s

Point 2:
A2= 8 cm^2 = 0.0008 m^2
V2 = Flow rate/A2 = 0.0013/0.0008 = 1.625 m/s
P1 = 152 kPa = 152000 Pa

Point 1:
A1 = 2 cm^2 = 0.0002 m^2
V1 = Flow rate/A1 = 0.0013/0.0002 = 6.5 m/s
P1 = ?
Height = 1.35 m

Applying Bernoulli principle;
P2+1/2*V2^2/density = P1+1/2*V1^2/density +density*gravitational acceleration*height
=>152000+0.5*1.625^2*1000=P1+0.5*6.5^2*1000+1000*9.81*1.35
=> 153320.31 = P1 + 34368.5
=> P1 = 1533210.31-34368.5 = 118951.81 Pa = 118.95 kPa
