A wire having resistance 20 ohm is bent to make a closed square. What is the resistance across the diagonal of square?

5 Ω

Explanation:

When it is bent into a square, each side of the square will get 5 Ω resistance. As considered diagonally ,path of the wire between to diagonal points is the two sides of the square (that is half the length of the wire connected in parallel position). Which gives 10 ohm parallel to 10 ohm wire. So it finally read as 5 Ω wire

the aurora is formed when charged particles emitted from the sun during a solar flare penetrate the earth's magnetic shield and collide with atoms and molecules in our atmosphere. these collisions result in countless little bursts of light, called photons, which make up the aurora.

auroras are generated by charged solar particles hitting molecules in earth's atmosphere. this usually happens in high latitudes, because our planet’s magnetic field tends to funnel these particles toward the poles. that’s why it can be experienced in northern ohio.
