Answer:

Note that the first equation is always valid, whereas the other two can be used only for resistors. In a simple circuit, with one voltage source and a single resistor, the power supplied by the voltage source and that dissipated by the resistor are identical. (In more complicated circuits, P can be the power dissipated by a single device and not the total power in the circuit.) Different insights can be gained from the three different expressions for electric power. For example, P = V2/R implies that the lower the resistance connected to a given voltage source, the greater the power delivered. Furthermore, since voltage is squared in P = V2/R, the effect of applying a higher voltage is perhaps greater than expected. Thus, when the voltage is doubled to a 25-W bulb, its power nearly quadruples to about 100 W, burning it out. If the bulb’s resistance remained constant, its power would be exactly 100 W, but at the higher temperature its resistance is higher, too.

3–102 One of the common procedures in fitness programs is to determine the fat-to-muscle ratio of the body. This is based on the
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

x_fat = [ 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) -  p_muscle*V ] / V*( p_fat - p_muscle )

Explanation:

Given:

- The total volume of body = V

- The average density of the body = p_avg

- The density of muscle = p_muscle

- The density of fat = p_fat

Find:

Obtain a relation for the volume fraction of body fat x_fat

Solution:

- The volume of the fat is given by:

                          V_fat = x_fat*V

- The volume of the muscle is given by:

                          V_muscle = V - V_fat

                                            = V - x_fat*V

                                            =V*( 1 - x_fat )

- We will use the conservation of mass for the body related as:

                         mass_fat + mass_muscle = Total average mass

                         p_fat*V_fat + p_muscle*V_muscle = p_avg*V

                         p_fat*x_fat*V + p_muscle*V*( 1 - x_fat ) = p_avg*V

                         p_fat*x_fat + p_muscle*( 1 - x_fat ) = p_avg

- To determine p_1 we weigh the body in air:

                         Weight reading (Wsa) = m = p_1*V

                         p_1 = Wsa / V*g

- To determine p_2 we weigh the body in water:

                         Weight reading (Wsw) = m - p_w*V= p_1*V - p_w*V

                         Weight reading (Wsw) = V*(p_1 - p_w) = V*(p_2)

                         Where, p_2 = p_1 - p_water

                         p_2 = Wsw / V

- The average density p_avg:

                         p_avg = 0.5*(p_1 + p_2)  

                         p_avg = 0.5*(Wsa / V + Wsw / V)  

                         p_avg = 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) / V                      

- Plug in the mass equation:

                         p_fat*x_fat + p_muscle*( 1 - x_fat ) = 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) / V

                         x_fat*( p_fat - p_muscle ) = 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) / V - p_muscle

                   x_fat = [ 0.5*(Wsa + Wsw) -  p_muscle*V ] / V*( p_fat - p_muscle )

Energy that causes a transfer of heat between marterials
notsponge [240]

Thermal radiation is a form of heat transfer because the electromagnetic radiation emitted from the source carries energy away from the source to surrounding (or distant) objects.

I tried, but I hope this helps :)

Some cars have an FCW, which stands for
Natalka [10]

Answer:

FCW in car stands for <em>Forward Collision Warning. </em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

The vehicle speed is monitored by <em>FCW system</em>, this is an advanced technology which indicates to the rear vehicle that a crash is going to happen if the vehicle gets close <em>because of speed</em>. This FCW systems monitor’s distance between the vehicles and speed of the vehicles.

<em>FCW system do not control the vehicle completely</em>. This system consists of sensors to detect stationary or slower-moving vehicles. A signal alerts the driver if the <em>distance between the vehicles is less</em> so that crash is being happened. It helps driver from crash by changing his route. Cars with this technology consists of audible alert.
