Answer:

The total resistance is 15 Ω, the total current is 1A, The potential drop in R1 and R2 are 10V and 5V respectively and the total power develped is 15 W.

Explanation:

First it is necessary to simplify the circuit. We can do this by calculating the total or equivalent resistance Re. For series resistance arrangement, Re is computed as:

RT = R1 + R2 = 5 Ω + 10 Ω = 15 Ω

According to Ohm’s law the total current can be calculated dividing the total voltage V by Re:

I = V/Re = 15V/15Ω = 1A

This current will be the same current through R1 and R2. Then we can compute the potential drop across R2 multiplying the current across R1 by the resistance:

VR1 = I*R2 = 1 A * 10 Ω = 10 V

The potential drop across R2 is obtained in the same way as R1, considering R2 resistance:

VR2 = I*R1 = 1 A * 5Ω = 5 V

The total power could be calculated multiplying the total current I by the total voltage:

P = I*V = 1 A * 15 V = 15 W

in the primitive yo-yo apparatus (figure 1), you replace the solid cylinder with a hollow cylinder of mass m , outer radius r ,

kirza4 [7]

The magnitude of the downward acceleration of the hollow cylinder is 6m/s^2.

Z = I α

T.R =1/2 M ( $R^{2}$ + $(R/2)^{2}$ )α

T.R = 1/2M 5 $R^{2}$ /4 α

T = 5Ma/8

Mg - T = Ma

Mg - 5Ma/8 = Ma

Mg= 5Ma/8 + Ma = 13Ma / 8

acceleration = 8g/13 = 6 m/s^2

The rate at which an object's velocity with respect to time changes is called its acceleration. The direction of the net force imposed on an item determines its acceleration in relation to that force. According to Newton's Second Law, the magnitude of an object's acceleration is the result of two factors working together

The size of the net balance of all external forces acting on that item is directly proportional to the magnitude of this net resultant force; the magnitude of that object's mass, depending on the materials from which it is built, is inversely related to its mass.

The power in an electric circuit varies inversely with the resistance. If the power is 2,200 watts when the resistance is 25 ohm

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

The value of resistance when power is 1100 watts = $R_{2}$ = 50 ohms

Explanation:

Power $P_{1}$ = 2200 Watts

Resistance $R_{1}$ = 25 ohms

Power $P_{2}$ = 1100 Watts

Resistance $R_{2}$ = we have to calculate

Given that the power in an electric circuit varies inversely with the resistance

⇒ P ∝ $\frac{1}{R}$

⇒ $\frac{P_{2} }{P_{1} }$ = $\frac{R_{1} }{R_{2} }$

⇒ $\frac{1100}{2200}$ = $\frac{25}{R_{2} }$

⇒ $R_{2}$ = 50 ohms

This is the value of resistance when power is 1100 watts.
