Answer from: binodkharal2048

To calculate resistance, we will use the formula:

R = ρl / A

where ρ(rho) is the resistivity of the material, l is the length of the wire and A is the cross-sectional area

We are given:

Length of wire (l) = 0.65 m

Diameter of wire (d) = 2 mm

Material of wire: Copper

Some important conversions:

- radius of the wire = diameter/2

radius = 2 mm/2 = 1 mm OR 1 * 10⁻³m

Calculating the cross-sectional area:

Cross-sectional area is the area of the circle at the end of the wire.

Cross-sectional area = π(r²)

Area = π(1 * 10⁻³)² [replacing the value of r]

Area = π * 10⁻⁶ m²

Calculating the resistance:

using the formula mentioned before:

R = ρl / A

R = $(1.7 * 10^{-8}ohm*m ) * \frac{0.65 m}{3.14 * 10^{-6}m^{2}}$ [resistivity of copper = 1.7 × 10⁻⁸ Ωm]

R = 3.52 * 10⁻³ (approx)

Answer from: zanaplen27

3.5 × 10⁻³ Ω

Explanation:

The resistance of a conductor is calculated by the formula:

$\displaystyle R=\rho \cdot \frac{l}{A}$ where R = electric resistance (Ω), ρ = resistivity (Ω · m), l = length of the wire (m), A = area of the cross-section of the wire (m²)

Let's start by converting the diameter of the copper wire to meters.

2 mm → .002 m

Since we want the radius of the cross-section, we will divide .002 m by 2.

.002/2 = .001 m

The radius of the copper wire is .001 m. We can calculate the area of the circular cross-section by using the formula:

$A=\pi r^2$ $A= \pi (.001)^2$ $A= \pi \cdot 10^-^6$

The area of the cross-section is π · 10⁻⁶ m².

The length of the wire is 0.65 m long. We do not have to convert units for the length of the wire since it is already in the SI units: meters.

Assuming the copper wire is at 20°C, we know that its resistivity is 1.7 · 10⁻⁸ Ω · m.

Using these three variables, we can solve for R in the formula for electric resistance.

ρ = 1.7 · 10⁻⁸ Ω · m l = 0.65 m A = π · 10⁻⁶ m²

Substitute these values into the equation.

$\displaystyle R=\rho \cdot \frac{l}{A}$ $\displaystyle R=(1.7 \cdot 10^-^8\ \Omega \cdot \text{m}) \cdot \frac{0.65 \ \text{m}}{(\pi \cdot 10^-^6 \ \text{m}^2 )}$ $\displaystyle R=\frac{(1.105 \cdot 10^-^8 \ \Omega \cdot \text{m}^2)}{(\pi \cdot 10^-^6 \ \text{m}^2)}$ $R=.3517324242 \cdot 10^-^2 \ \Omega$ $R=.003517324242 \ \Omega$

Notice how the unit m² cancels out, leaving us with Ω (units of electrical resistance).

The electric resistance of a copper wire 0.65 m long with a radius of .001 m is .0035 ohms (Ω), or 3.5 × 10⁻³ Ω.

Ineed this now one scientist feels that the changes in global climatic patterns may be good for the health of the biosphere. another scientist feels that sharp changes in climatic patterns could result in the extinction of the biosphere. which of these is the most likely reason the two scientists gave conflicting opinions on the impact of changes in the global climatic pattern? they do not have enough knowledge on the topic. they did not discuss the issue among themselves. they believe conflicting opinion strengthens science. they study different areas of science and have different scientific focuses.
