Aluminum wire with a diameter of 0.8650 mm is wound onto a spool. The wire is insulated, but you have access to both ends. The resistivity of aluminum at 20.0 °C is 2.65 x 10^-8 Ω-m. You measure the resistance of the wire at that temperature, and it is 2.48 Ω. What is the length of the wire? a. 8.10 x 10^4 m
b. 22.0 m
c. 5.68 m
d. 0.111 m
e. 55.0 m

e. 55.0 m

Explanation:

Given;

diameter of the aluminum wire, d = 0.865 mm

radius of the wire, r = d/2 = 0.4325 mm = 0.4325 x 10⁻³ m

resistivity of the wire, ρ = 2.65 x 10⁻⁸ Ω-m

resistance of the wire, R = 2.48 Ω

The resistance of a wire is given by;

where;

L is length of the wire

A is area of the wire = πr² = π(0.4325 x 10⁻³ )² = 5.877 x 10⁻⁷ m²

Substitute the givens and solve for L,

Therefore, the length of the wire is 55.0 m

chemical properties of thing

d₁ = displacement of tern from arctic to antarctic = 11000 miles

d₂ = displacement of tern from antarctic to arctic =   - 11000 miles

d = total displacement for the journey

total displacement for the journey is given as

d = d₁ + d₂

d = 11000 + (-11000)

d = 0 miles

t₁ = time of travel from arctic to antarctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t₂ = time of travel from antarctic to arctic = 3 months = 3 x 30 days = 90 days

t = total time of travel

total time of travel is given as

t = t₁ + t₂

t = 90 + 90

t = 180 days

average velocity is given as

average velocity = total displacement/ total time

v = d/t

v = 0/180

v = 0 miles/day
