The answer is 2 times.

In parallel DC circuit the power (P) can be calculated by using the values of total current (I) and resistance (R):
P = I²R

The old power is:
Po = Io² x Ro
Io = 4 A
Ro = 0.5 ohms (Ω)
So, <span>Po = 4² A x 0.5 </span>Ω<span> = 8 W</span>

The new power is:
Pn = In² x Rn
In = 4 A x 2 = 8 A
Rn = 0.5 Ω ÷ 2 = 0.25 Ω
So, Po = 8² A x 0.25 <span>Ω </span>= 16 W

Pn ÷ Po = 16 W ÷ 8 W = 2
Thus, the new power is 2 x higher than the old power.

In a titration experiment, a 10.00 ml sample of H2SO4 was titrated with 33.25 mL of 0.777 M KOH.
german

Answer:

1.292 M

Explanation:

<em>In order to calculate the concentration of H2SO4, we need to get the balanced equation of reaction first;</em>

H_2SO_4 + 2KOH --> K_2SO_4 + 2H_2O

Using the formula:

CaVa/CbVb = na/nb

where Ca = concentration of acid, Va = volume of acid, Cb = concentration of base, Vb = volume of base, na = number of moles of acid, and nb = number of moles of base.

In this case, Ca =?, Va = 10.00 ml, Cb = 0.777, Vb = 33.25 ml, na = 1, nb = 2

Ca = CbVbna/Vanb = 0.777 x 33.25 x 1/10 x 2

Ca = 1.292 M

Hence, the concentration of H2SO4 is 1.292 M

Which of the following is an effect of a decrease in the surface-area-to-volume ratio of a cell?
Studentka2010 [4]
<span>An effect of a decrease in the surface-area-to-volume ratio of a cell is Choice B. Waste removal becomes slower. Decrease in the surface area to volume ratio means that the cell is growing in size. This growth makes diffusion less efficient resulting to the center of the cell not receiving its required substances. The cell processes slows down and the cell must break down into smaller cells that has larger SA:V ratio to make diffusion more efficient. </span>
