Awire of nichrome (a nickel-chromium-iron alloy commonly used in heating elements) is 1.3 m long and 1.6 mm2 in cross-sectional area. it carries a current of 3.2 a when a 2.0 v potential difference is applied between its ends. calculate the conductivity σ of nichrome. /ω · m

When an object moves in uniform circular motion, the direction of its acceleration is a) in the same direction as its velocity vector. b) in the opposite direction of its velocity vector c) is directed toward the center of its circular path. d) is directed away from the center of its circular path. e) depends on the speed of the object.

Next a skier is pulled by a tow rope up a frictionless ski slope that makes an angle of 15 with the horizontal. the rope moves parallel to the slope with a constant speed of 0.69 m/s. the force of the rope does 800 3 of work on the skier as the skier moves a distance of 8.4 m up the incline. (a) if the rope moved with a constant speed of 2.2 m/s how much work would the force of the rope do on the skier as the skler moved a distance of 8.4 m up the incline? at what rate is the force of the rope doing work on the skier when the rope moves with a speed of (b) 0.69 m/s and (c) 2.2 m/s?
