<h2>a) Equivalent resistance is 143 Ω</h2><h2>b) Potential difference is 71.5 V</h2>

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in series, effective resistance is given by

                R_{eff}=R_1+R_2+R_3+......

Here

         R₁ = 21Ω

         R₂ = 58Ω

         R₃ = 64Ω

a)      R_{eff}=R_1+R_2+R_3\\\\R_{eff}=21+58+64\\\\R_{eff}=143\Omega

  Equivalent resistance is 143 Ω

b) We know

               Potential difference = Current x Resistance

               V = IR

               I = 0.5 A

               R = 143Ω

Substituting

               V = 0.5 x 143 = 71.5 V

Potential difference is 71.5 V

What material parameters determine resistivity?
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Resistivity \rho =\frac{RA}{l}

It depends upon cross sectional area and length of material

Explanation:

The resistance of any material is given by R=\frac{\rho l}{A}, here \rho is the resistivity of material , l is length of material and A is cross sectional area

So resistivity \rho =\frac{RA}{l}

So resistuivity of any material depends upon area of cross section and length of material

If cross sectional area will be more then resistivity will be more. And is length of the material will be more then resistivity will be less

The emf induced in a coil that is rotating in a magnetic field will be at a maximum at which moment?
adelina 88 [10]
TLDR: It will reach a maximum when the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field vector are perpendicular to one another.

This is an example that requires you to investigate the properties that occur in electric generators; for example, hydroelectric dams produce electricity by forcing a coil to rotate in the presence of a magnetic field, generating a current.

To solve this, we need to understand the principles of electromotive forces and Lenz’ Law; changing the magnetic field conditions around anything with this potential causes an induced current in the wire that resists this change. This principle is known as Lenz’ Law, and can be described using equations that are specific to certain situations. For this, we need the two that are useful here:

e = -N•dI/dt; dI = ABcos(theta)

where “e” describes the electromotive force, “N” describes the number of loops in the coil, “dI” describes the change in magnetic flux, “dt” describes the change in time, “A” describes the area vector of the coil (this points perpendicular to the loops, intersecting it in open space), “B” describes the magnetic field vector, and theta describes the angle between the area and mag vectors.

Because the number of loops remains constant and the speed of the coils rotation isn’t up for us to decide, the only thing that can increase or decrease the emf is the change in magnetic flux, represented by ABcos(theta). The magnetic field and the size of the loop are also constant, so all we can control is the angle between the two. To generate the largest emf, we need cos(theta) to be as large as possible. To do this, we can search a graph of cos(theta) for the highest point. This occurs when theta equals 90 degrees, or a right angle. Therefore, the electromotive potential will reach a maximum when the angle between the area vector and the magnetic field vector are perpendicular to one another.

Hope this helps!
