When a resistor is connected to a 12 volt source, it draws a 185 mA current. what's the resistance? (I said 65 ohms). the same r

Resistance-1 = (voltage-1) / (current-1) =

                       (12 V)  /  (0.185 A)  =  64.9 ohms .

Resistance-2 = (voltage-2) / (current-2) =
 
                           (90 V )  /  (1.25 A)  =  72 ohms .

The resistance changed between situation-1 and situation-2 .
How did that happen ?

Power = (voltage) x (current)

Power-1 = (12)  x  (0.185)  =  2.22 watts

Power-2 = (90)  x  (1.25)  =  112.5 watts

The poor resistor dissipated 51 times as much power during
the second trial.  It got all heated up, and its resistance went
through the roof.

Carbon resistors behave nicely and reliably, until you try to
toast bread or light up your bedroom with them.

The Sun is a star that is in a stable state called the main sequence.

Astronomers believe some stars are moving away from earth by measuring the extent to which their light is “stretched” into the red part of the color spectrum, representing the lower frequencies on that spectrum.

In short, stars moving away from earth are “red-shift”, while if they were moving towards the earth they would take on a “blue-shift”.

Anna [14]

Answer:12 meter

Explanation:

acceleration(a)=6m/s^2

Time(t)=2 seconds

Distance =(a x t^2)/2

Distance =(6 x 2^2)/2

Distance=(6 x 2 x 2)/2

Distance=24/2

Distance =12

Distance is 12 meters
