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.

two horses are pulling a 325 kg wagon, initially at rest. The horses exert 250 N and 178 N forward forces, respectively. Ignorin
Dovator [93]

Answer:

AFter 3.5 s, the wagon is moving at:   4.62\,\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

Let's start by finding first the net force on the wagon, and from there the wagon's acceleration (using Newton's 2nd Law):

Net force = 250 N + 178 N = 428 N

Therefore, the acceleration from Newton's 2nd Law is:

F=m\,*\,a\\a = \frac{F}{m} \\a= \frac{428}{325}\, \frac{m}{s^2} \\a\approx 1.32 \,\,\frac{m}{s^2}

So now we apply this acceleration to the kinematic expression for velocity in an object moving under constant acceleration:

v_f=v_i+a\,*\,t\\v_f=0+1.32\,*\,3.5\,\,\frac{m}{s} \\v_f=4.62\,\,\frac{m}{s}

Sodium has an atomic mass of 23 and an atomic number of 11, so the
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

12 Neutrons

Explanation:

So the mass of sodium is 22.990. You round it up to get 23(as stated in the problem). So, <em>what exactly is atomic mass?</em>

Atomic Mass is the total amount of neutrons and protons added up to form a total mass. So when you subtract 23-11 you get 12 Neutrons.

<u>Tip: </u>Don't know if you need this but-

The neutrons and protons are typically close in number (unless it's an isotope). So say that you subtract and the numbers of protons and neutrons aren't close at all. Well if that's the case, it's probably wrong.

hope this helps!!

Rotational dynamics physics question please help.
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Looking at the force-time graph, wouldn't the force be integral fdt between 0 and 10s, a sort of "smoothed out pulse" ? And it looks like a familiar bell shaped curve. doesn't that produce a turning effect/torque and isn't there something about a circular analogue to F=ma in newtonian linear mechs ???
Looks like a difficult question for 5 points
