Answer: since resistance is influenced by length, the resistance will be equally distributed as the wire is cut into two equal parts, resulting in

4.5 * 10^-3 ohm.

Answer: Each segment would have a resistance of 4.5\times 10^{-3}\Omega

Explanation:

Let the resistance of each half of the wire be denoted as r.

This means,

r+r=R

where,

r = resistance of one half of the wire.

R = total resistance of the full wire = 9.0\times 10^{-3}\Omega

Resistance is known to be directly proportional to the length of the wire.

Total resistance of the aluminum wire = Sum of resistances of the two cut pieces.

r+r=9.0\times 10^{-3}\Omega

2r=9.0\times 10^{-3}\Omega

r=\frac{9.0\times 10^{-3}\Omega}{2}

r=4.5\times 10^{-3}\Omega

Therefore, each length will have a resistance of 4.5\times 10^{-3}\Omega

A 7.5 kg cannon ball leaves a canon with a speed of 185 m/s. Find the average net force applied to the ball if the cannon muzzle
Keith_Richards [1034]

To determine the average net force, we can calculate acceleration using:

x = 0.5*a*t^2

v = a*t

where x=3.6m and v=185 m/s.

Thus,

t=v/a and therefore x = 0.5*a*(v/a)^2 = 0.5 * (v^2)/a

which gives us a= (0.5*v^2)/x

Since we have the known values of v and x, we can compute a by substituting these numbers.

The average net force is then given as:

F = m*a,

with m=7.5kg.

Two trains are headed towards each other on the same track unbeknownst to the engineers. One departs San Francisco. Its average
ValentinkaMS [1149]

Answer:

7.166 hours = 430 minutes.

Explanation:

As both trains are approaching each other on the same track, their relative speed is the sum of their individual speeds. Hence, the time until they intersect (and inevitably collide) is determined by how long it takes for speeds of 65 mph and 55 mph to cover the total distance of 860 miles. One train will cover part of the distance, while the other will cover the remainder. To calculate the required time, we can apply the formula:

1 hour ---> 120 miles

X ----> 860 miles; hence X = (860 miles * 1 hour)/120 miles = 43/6 hours = 7.16666 hours. To convert this into minutes, recall that 1 hour equals 60 minutes; therefore, 43/6 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 430 minutes.

Two blocks are attached to opposite ends of a massless rope that goes over a massless, frictionless, stationary pulley. One of t
Softa [913]

Answer:

1/7 kg

Explanation:

Refer to the attached diagram for enhanced clarity regarding the question.

One of the blocks weighs 1.0 kg and accelerates downward at 3/4g.

g denotes the acceleration due to gravity.

Let M represent the block with known mass, while 'm' signifies the mass of the other block and 'a' refers to the acceleration of body M.

Given M = 1.0 kg and a = 3/4g.

By applying Newton's second law; \sum fy = ma_y

For the body with mass m;

T - mg = ma... (1)

For the body with mass M;

Mg - T = Ma... (2)

Combining equations 1 and 2 gives;

+Mg -mg = ma + Ma

Ma-Mg = -mg-ma

M(a-g) = -m(a+g)

Substituting M = 1.0 kg and a = 3/4g into this equation leads to;

3/4 g-g = -m(3/4 g+g)

3/4 g-g = -m(7/4 g)

-g/4 = -m(7/4 g)

1/4 = 7m/4

Multiplying gives: 28m = 4

m = 1/7 kg

Hence, the mass of the other box is 1/7 kg

A girl and boy pull in opposite directions on a stuffed animal. The girl exerts a force of 3.5 N. The mass of the stuffed animal
Keith_Richards [1034]
I will assume the girl is on the right while the boy is on the left.
The net force represents the total of all forces acting on an object, factoring in negatives.
Let the force from the boy be denoted as b. We’ll apply the formula F = ma.

b + 3.5 = 0.2(2.5)

This reduces to a straightforward algebraic problem. By solving, we find that the boy is applying a force of -3N to the left.
