    How do you find the diameter of a wire

    The actual question is: A 17.00 Ω resistor is made from a coil of copper wire whose total mass is 37.0 g. The resistivity of Cu is 1.68×10-8 Ω · m and its mass density is 8.90×103 kg/m3. What is the diameter of the wire? So would I use Ohm's law V=IR to find I?

    How to find acceleration and tension given mass and an angle

    I don't have a scanner or anything. I guess no one can help me. I understand and have done everything you guys are saying, and I appreciate the help. I was just looking for a more direct approach to the problem instead of everyone telling me what I have already done.

    How to find acceleration and tension given mass and an angle

    Yes, I know that is why we use FBD, but in this case all I know is the mass and an angle. I don't really understand what I'm setting equal to each other.

    How to find acceleration and tension given mass and an angle

    The force of tension would point up because that's where the tension is coming from. (I think). I understand the point of FBD's, but if I don't know the values then how does it help, in this case?

    How to find acceleration and tension given mass and an angle

    In my FBD, I have gravity pointing down, the force of the ground pointing up, (the force of the ground and the force of gravity are equal), friction pointing to the left, and acceleration pointing to the right (acceleration is larger since the van has constant acceleration.

    How to find acceleration and tension given mass and an angle

    a= f/m, but I don't know what the force is the mass is 65 kg so the force is 637.4 N so when I divide 637.4/65 I get 9.8 (gravity), but that really hasn't gotten me anywhere, has it? I don't know the equation for tension. We haven't learned it yet but the assignment is due Monday.
