Determination of r for a Metallic Conductor To
determine the resistivity (r) of a given sample of
wire Physical factors that affect the resistance
of a conductor are length, cross sectional area
and a constant that depends upon the material
called the resistivity. The resistance per unit
length is the same all along a uniform wire so if
the resistance of different lengths of a wire is
found out, the resistivity can be calculated.
Resistance of a material, R = Voltage / Current

Nuclear Chain Reaction E Mc 2

The scientist Albert Einstein did not participate
in the invention of the atomic bomb and nuclear
energy. But he was the key to unlocking the
development of nuclear energy and atomic bomb. In
1905, as part of his Special Theory of Relativity,
he made a point that a large amount of energy
could be released from a small amount of matter.
This was development of the equation E = mc 2
(energy = mass times the speed of light squared).
The atomic bomb would clearly this equation
worked. But Einstein w...

White Light Red Green

Color is the curves, where the height of the curve
represents the amount, or intensity, of that
particular wavelength. Everyone of these
distribution curves then corresponds to a color of
light. Many of the colors we are familiar with
appear on the EMF visible spectrum, such as red
and yellow. We would therefore expect the
distribution curves of these colors then to have a
positive value only at a certain wavelengths.
Under most conditions this is not true there are
usually traces of all the oth...

Left Arm Left Hand

Although golfers end the day on the 18 th green,
their day begins on a tee box. A drive, the first
hit off a tee toward the objective hole, may seem
very routine and insignificant, but, in fact, it
is the most important shot taken on each hole. If
golfers hit a long drive into the nicely cut
fairway, they have only to hit the ball off the
nicely cut grass on usually a clear path to the
hole. But if they hit a drive into the woods, then
they have to make sure the ball does not hit any
trees, bran...
