A metal wire of resistance R is cut into six equal pieces that are then placed together side by side to form a new cable with a length equal to one-sixth the original length. What is the resistance of this new cable?

In a system, when potential energy decreases, then entropy also decreases. true false

The period of a pendulum varies directly as the square root of the length of the pendulum and inversely as the square root of the acceleration due to gravity. find the period when the length is 144 cm and the acceleration due to gravity is 980 cm per second squared, if the period is 7pi seconds when the length is 289 cm and the acceleration due to gravity is 980 cm per second squared.

Daughter element the new element produced along with a decay particle in a nuclear transmutation 2. half-life the substance that decays in a nuclear transmutation 3. parent element the change of one chemical element into another by nuclear decay or radioactive bombardment 4. transmutation the time required for the decay of one-half of the atoms in a sample of radioactive material
