The new current will be 4I. The power dissipated by the resistor will increase by a factor of 16.

<h3>What is a resistor?</h3>
  • Using electrical resistance as a circuit element, a resistor is a passive electrical component with two terminals. In electrical circuits, resistors are used, among other things, to limit current flow, modify signal levels, divide voltages, bias active devices, and terminate transmission lines.
  • As test loads for generators, power distribution systems, and motor controls, high-power resistors that can create many watts of heat rather than just electrical energy can be used.
  • Variable resistors can be used as sensors for force, heat, light, humidity, humidity, and chemical activity or for adjusting circuit components.
  • Electrical networks and electronic circuits frequently contain resistors, which are found everywhere in electronic equipment. Practical resistors are discrete components that come in a wide range of materials and forms.

Which of the following mixture can be separate using decantation method?​
vivado [14]

Answer:

Hi sorry for answering here but you didnt put the options there

Explanation:

I'll still try to answer though so maybe the mixture from one of the questions might be something like oil and water which don't mix and can be separated by decantation so something similar would work. Hope this helps

Define and describe the following terms: amplitude, wavelength, frequency, period, tension.
maw [93]

Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object
