A piece of Nichrome wire has a radius of 6.5 104 m. It is used in a laboratory to make a heater that uses 4.00 102 W of power when connected to a voltage source of 120 V. Ignoring the effect of temperature on resistance, estimate the necessary length of wire.

Explanation:

Given data

Power P=4.00×10²W

Radius r=6.5×10⁴m

Voltage V=120V

To find

Length of wire L

Solution

We know that resistance of wire can be obtained from

We also know that R=pL/A solving the length noting that A=πr²

and using p=100×10⁻⁸Ω.m we find that

So

the answer is a. the yacht traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.

im doing peak rn so sry if its wrong

probably not if net force is zero
