In order to calculate the thermal energy, first let's calculate the power, using the formula:

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

For a voltage V = 9 Volts and a resistance R = 50 ohms, we have:

\begin{gathered} P=\frac{9^2}{50} \\ P=\frac{81}{50}=1.62\text{ W} \end{gathered}

Now, multiplying the power by the time (in seconds), we can find the energy:

\begin{gathered} E=P\cdot t \\ E=1.62\cdot7.5\cdot60 \\ E=729\text{ J} \end{gathered}

In scientific notation, we have an energy of 7.3 * 10^2 J, therefore the correct option is the fourth one.

What is potential energy
valkas [14]

Answer:

Potential energy is energy that is stored – or conserved - in an object or substance. This stored energy is based on the position, arrangement or state of the object or substance. You can think of it as energy that has the 'potential' to do work.

Sometimes balance point may not be obtained on the potentiometer wire why​
scoundrel [369]
Solution
Let a cell of emf E be connected across the entire length L of a potentiometer wire . Now , if the balance point is obtained at a length l during measurement of an unknown voltage

.
The balance point is not on the potentiometer wire - this statement means that

. In that case ,
l > L
V > E

Why are all bodies in nature electrically neutral? short answer please​
DENIUS [597]

Answer: because they have equal numbers of protons

Explanation: Atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). If an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion
