If the current flowing through a circuit of constant resistance is doubled, the power dissipated by that circuit will

1 answer:

3 0

Assuming that the voltage is constant, and the resistance was doubled, since I=V/R, the current through the circuit will be halved. As P=IV, with the same voltage and halved current, the power dissipated by the circuit will be halved

What is the difference between atomic structure and crystal structure?

mars1129 [50]

Atomic structure applies to just that, atoms in isolation. Witness looking at atomic spectra using laboratory discharge tubes to ionise low pressure gases of atoms of the elements you want to examine for energy level structure (sodium and the yellow D line "doublet").Crystal structure applies to vast collections of atoms/molecules/ions in complicated geometrical arrays which form lattices. Simple cubic, body centred cubic, face centred cubic being a few "simple" examples.

larisa [96]

I attached the requested diagram.

<em>In the case of the magnetic field in a bar</em> by convention, the direction of the field is taken out of the north pole and towards the south pole of the magnet. These types of images are commonly made of some ferrous material.

<em>In the case of the horseshoe </em>magnet, the highly concentrated magnetic field is distinguished between its legs. In the figure it is shown in a contribution from North to South, again by agreement, however outside the two poles, the magnetic field falls rapidly. A horseshoe magnet is basically a bent bar magnet.

An automobile engine takes in 4000 j of heat and performs 1100 j of mechanical work in each cycle. (a) calculate the engine's ef

Semmy [17]

(a) The efficiency of an engine is defined as the ratio between the work done by the engine and the heat it takes in:
$\eta= \frac{W}{Q_{in}}$
The engine in this problem does a work of $W=1100 J$ and it takes in $Q_{in}=4000 J$ of heat, therefore its efficiency is
$\eta= \frac{1100 J}{4000 J}=0.275 = 27.5 \%$

(b) The heat taken by the machine is 4000 J; of this amount of heat, only 1100 J are converted into useful work. This means that the rest of the heat is wasted. Therefore, the wasted heat is the difference between the heat in input and the work done by the engine:
$Q_{wasted}=Q_{in}-W=4000 J-1100 J=2900 J$
