Analyzing the Light Bulb: You should have noticed that the light bulb doesn't have a single well-defined "resistance," since the

current vs. voltage plot is nonlinear. Nevertheless, one can define a "voltage-dependent resistance" as R(V)=V/I(V)as the ratio of voltage to current.1Basic Behavior: According to your data, does this resistance increase or decrease with voltage? A reasonable (and correct) thought is that the impact is really with temperature, as the light bulb heats up with more power going into it. How does your data imply resistance varies with temperature?Thermal Expansion: One hypothesis you might have is that the reason is that the resistor expands slightly with increased temperature (since most materials do), and hence the cross-sectional area and length of the resistor change.Supposing the resistor increases in size by the same factor in every direction, what direction does the resistance change? (I.e., does the resistance get larger or smaller?) Is this the direction that you expect based on your answer to the previous part?

Answer:

Resistance increases with increase in temperature which depends on power supplied which also depends on voltage.

Thermal expansion will make resistance larger.

Explanation:

Light bulb is a good example of a filament lamp. If we plot the graph of voltage against current we will notice that resistance is constant at constant temperature.

The filament heats up when an electric current passes through it, and produces light as a result.

The resistance of a lamp increases as the temperature of its filament increases. The current flowing through a filament lamp is not directly proportional to the voltage across it.

tensile stress begins to appear in resistor as the temperature rises. Thus, the resistance value increases as the temperature rises. Resistance value can only decrease as the temperature rises in case of thin film resistor with aluminium substrate.

In case of a filament bulb, the resistance will increase as increase in length of the wire. The thermal expansion in this regard is linear expansivity in which resistance is proportional to length of the wire.

Resistance therefore get larger.

Why do our eyes see the color red when we look at a tomato?
forsale [732]

Answer:

B. Tomatos reflect red light

Explanation:

The only reason colors exist is because the objects with color reflect all other light except for what they are portrayed as. White reflects all colors, and black absorbs all colors.

For a maximum superelevation of 0.08 ft/ft and a degree of curve of 4o, calculate the maximum safe speed for the curve assuming
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that

Superelation= 0.08ft/ft

Given curve= u•

Curve junction factor= 0.13

DR= 5729.57795

R = 5729.57795/D

R = 5729.57795/4

R = 1432.4ft

c + f = V^2/gG

0.08 + 0.13 = V^2 / (32*1432.4)

V^2 = 9625.728 or V = 98 ft/sec

The designed speed for a project considered is a minimum value which means the highway design elements will meet or exceed the standards for the design speed. The maximum safe speed under normal condition is significantly greater than design speed
