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.

kaheart [24]

To solve this problem, we can use the cosine formula for calculating the length of the displacement:

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 – 2 a b cos θ

 

where c is the displacement, a = 3.5 km, b = 4.5 km, and θ is the angle inside the triangle

 

Since the geeze turned 40° from west to north, so the angle inside the triangle must be:

θ = 180 – 40 = 140°

 

c^2 = 3.5^2 + 4.5^2 – 2 (3.5) (4.5) cos 140

c^2 = 56.63

c = 7.53 km

 

<span>So the magnitude of the displacement is 7.53 km</span>
