You apply a potential difference of 4.50 V between the ends of a wire that is 2.50 m in length and 0.654 mm in radius. The resulting current through the wire is 17.6 A. What is the resistivity of the wire?

Which of the following is not a characteristic of s waves? a. travel slower than p waves. b. cannot be detected in locations more than 105° from an earthquake’s epicenter. c. travel through solids and liquids. d. only affect coastal regions.

To place a communications satellite into a geosynchronous orbit at an altitude of 22,240 mi above the surface of the earth, the satellite first is released from a space shuttle , which is in a circular orbit at an altitude of 185 mi, and then is propelled by an upper-stage booster to its final altitude. as the satellite passes through a, the booster's motor is fired to insert the satellite into an elliptic transfer orbit. the booster is again fired at b to insert the satellite into a geosynchronous orbit. knowing that the second firing increases the speed of the satellite by 4810ft/s, determine (a.) the speed of the satellite as it approaches b on the elliptic transfer orbit, (b.) the increase in speed resulting from the first firing at a.

Determine the largest intensity w of the uniform loading that can be applied to the frame without causing either the average normal stress or the average shear stress at section b–b to exceed σ=19 mpa and τ=24 mpa, respectively.
