Does the resistance of a wire depend on the cross section area of the wire?
Yes. The bigger the cross section, the lower the resistance.
What is difference center of shear and center of twist?
The shear center is the point on a beam cross section at which an applied shear force (lateral load or load parallel to the cross section) will produce bending but no twisting of the section. The center of twist is a point in a cross section that remains stationary when a twisting moment (torque) is applied on that cross section. The shear center and twist center are the same point only when the beam is rigidly supported.
What is the unit used to express electric current called?
A, Amps or amperes. an ampere is equal to one coulomb/second (basically a LARGE set number of electrons flowing through a cross section per second) the cross section could be anything, a wire, an arm... akin to the cross section of a watermain.
How does a wire's cross section affect resistance?
If two pieces of wire are made of the same material and have the same length but different resistance, then the one with the greater cross section area has the lower resistance.
Which way of using the word energy are the closest to the definition of energy given in the section?
It a the same thing it's just that the the energy section is just by section of energy
What is the definition of a cross-section?
The definition of a cross-section is the surface that is seen after something is cut through a straight. This is done to expose the inner shape of an object.
What is the cross section of a circle?
The cross section of a circle is a circle. A circle is defined as a plane figure (i.e. 2 dimensional object) with a constant radius in both dimensions. Since a cross section is, by definition 2 dimensional, a circle's cross section is the circle itself.
What does a cone prism look like?
By definition, the circular cross-section of a cone changes linearly in width as you go along its axis. By definition, the cross-section of a prism is constant along its axis. So, by definition, a cone prism is an impossible shape.
Why does the links in what is the definition of a uniform cross-section don't work?
Maybe because it is old
What is the definition of a uniform cross-section?
A Uniform Cross Section is the cross section of the solid, parallel to base, such that the resulting figure has the same shape and size as that of the base of the figure.More about Uniform Cross SectionSolids like pyramids and cones have slant heights and hence do not have uniform cross section.Examples of Uniform Cross SectionThe uniform cross section of the given prism is a square.The uniform cross section of the given cylinder is a circle.In short to say, uniform cross-section are when you dissect a 3D solid and you get all same shape (uniform).
What has a circular cross section when the cross section is taken parallel?
A cylinder has a circular cross section that is parallel to its base.
Can the cross section of a cuboid be a trapezium?
Not a right cross-section.
What is the function of the cross-section of a root and a stem?
cross-section of a root
What is the function of the cross section of a root and a stem?
cross-section of a root
What is a cross section in soil called?
A profile is a cross section in soil.
Is it possible to create a square cross section?
Yes a prism can have a square cross-section
What is the definition of specific resistance?
The electrical resistance offered by unit length and unit cross section of a material when a known voltage is applied at its ends.
