Power Rating of a Resistor. The power rating of a resistor is the maximum power the resistor can safely dissipate without too gr

IgorLugansk [536]

(a) 273.9 V

The power rating of the resistor is given by

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}$

where

P is the power rating

V is the potential difference across the resistor

R is the resistance

If the maximum power rating is $P=5.0 W$ , and the resistance of the resistor is $R=15 k\Omega = 15000 \Omega$ , then we can find the maximum potential difference across the resistor by re-arranging the previous equation for V:

$V=\sqrt{PR}=\sqrt{(5.0 W)(15000 \Omega)}=273.9 V$

(b) 1.6 W

In this case, we have:

$R=9.0 k\Omega = 9000 \Omega$ is the resistance of the resistor

$V=120 V$ is the potential difference across the resistor

So we can find the power rating by using the same formula of part (a):

$P=\frac{V^2}{R}=\frac{(120 V)^2}{9000 \Omega}=1.6 W$

(c) Maximum voltage: 14.1 V; Rate of heat: 2.00 W and 3.00 W

Here we have two resistors of

$R_1 = 100 \Omega\\R_2 = 150 \Omega$

and each resistor has a power rating of

P = 2.00 W

So the greatest potential difference allowed in the first resistor is

$V=\sqrt{PR_1}=\sqrt{(2.00 W)(100 \Omega)}=14.1 V$

While the greatest potential difference allowed in the second resistor is

$V=\sqrt{PR_2}=\sqrt{(2.00 W)(150 \Omega)}=17.3 V$

So the greatest potential difference allowed not to overheat either of the resistor is 14.1 V.

In this condition, the power dissipated on the first resistor is 2.00 W, while the power dissipated on the second resistor is

$P_2 = \frac{V^2}{R_2}=\frac{(14.1 V)^2}{150 \Omega}=1.33 W$

And this corresponds to the rate of heat generated in the first resistor (2.00 W) and in the second resistor (1.33 W).

What is the magnitude of the acceleration vector which causes a particle to move from velocity −5i−2j m/s to −6i+ 7j m/s in 8 se

shusha [124]

Answer:

Acceleration, $a=\dfrac{1}{8}(-i+9j)\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Initial velocity of a particle in vector form, u = (-5i - 2j) m/s

Final velocity of particle in vector form, v = (-6i + 7j) m/s

Time taken, t = 8 seconds

We need to find the magnitude of acceleration vector. The changing of velocity w.r.t time is called acceleration of a particle. It is given by :

$a=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$a=\dfrac{(-6i+7j)\ m/s-(-5i-2j)\ m/s}{8\ s}$

$a=\dfrac{(-i+9j)}{8\ s}\ m/s^2$

or

$a=\dfrac{1}{8}(-i+9j)\ m/s^2$

Hence, the value of acceleration vector is solved.

Salt is now added to the water in the bucket, increasing the density of the liquid. what happens to the tension in the string ?

AlexFokin [52]

The question involves a ping-pong ball that is held submerged in a bucket by a string attached to the bottom of the bucket.

The answer is the tension of the string will increase. This is because making the water salty increases its density, and consequently, increases its buoyancy. This is why sea water is more buoyant than fresh water. Therefore the ping pong is pushed more upwards by the water when salt is added than initially. This gives the string more tension.

What would happen if your stomach wasint working properly

adelina 88 [10]

Your stomach, as in JUST your stomach?
Well the role of your stomach is to break down large clumps of food. Without that it would be very hard to impossible to digest food.<span />
