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.

A particle moves along the x-axis so that its velocity at anytime is t greater than or equal to 0 is given by v(t)=1-sin(2pi t)
UkoKoshka [18]
A) We differentiate the expression for velocity to obtain an expression for acceleration:
v(t) = 1 - sin(2πt)
dv/dt = -2πcos(2πt)
a = -2πcos(2πt)

b) Any value of t can be plugged in as long as it is greater than or equal to 0. 

c) we integrate the expression of velocity to find an expression for displacement:
∫v(t) dt = ∫ 1 - sin(2πt) dt
x(t) = t + cos(2πt)/2π + c
x(0) = 0
0 = = + cos(0)/2π + c
c = -1/2π
x(t) = t + cos(2πt)/2π -1/2π

The Hall effect can be used to determine the density of mobile electrons in a conductor. A thin strip of the material being inve
solmaris [256]

Answer:

the density of mobile electrons in the material is 3.4716 × 10²⁵ m⁻³

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we make use of the following expression;

hall Voltage VH = IB / ned

where I = 2.25 A

B = 0.685 T

d =  0.107 mm =  0.107 × 10⁻³ m

e = 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ C

VH = 2.59 mV = 2.59 × 10⁻³ volt

n is the electron density

so from the form; VH = IB / ned

VHned = IB

n = IB / VHed

so we substitute

n = (2.25 × 0.685) / ( 2.59 × 10⁻³ × 1.602×10⁻¹⁹ × 0.107 × 10⁻³ )

n = 1.54125 /  4.4396226 × 10⁻²⁶

n = 3.4716 × 10²⁵ m⁻³

Therefore, the density of mobile electrons in the material is 3.4716 × 10²⁵ m⁻³
