A wire 50cm long and having a diameter of 0.05cm is in a room at 20ºC. The specific resistance of the material of wire is 2µΩ per cm cube while its temperature co-efficient is 0.004 at 20ºC. Calculate the resistance of wire at 20ºC, if the temperature of the room rises to 25ºC. Find the new resistance of wire.

the answer is 100. i just did this lesson and got a 100% on it. : )

chemical energy --> gravitational potential energy --> kinetic energy --> elastic potential energy --> gravitational potential energy

explanation:

when emma starts the hike, the chemical energy stored in her body is used to climb up the mountain, and so she gains gravitational potential energy (because at the end, she will be at a higher height h above the ground). then she goes bungee jumping: as she falls, this gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy (because her speed increases as she falls down), until the point when the rope stretches, and she stops moving. at that moment, all the kinetic energy is converted into elastic potential energy due to the stretching of the rope. then, this energy is released because the rope returns to its natural length, and emma gains a small increase in altitude , so she gains some gravitational potential energy.
