1) My 14V car battery could be used to charge my laptop, but I need to use an inverter to first convert it to a standard 120V. T

hen my laptop charge cord has a resistor inside which ensures that 1.6A of current flow through to the laptop. What is the resistance in the charge cord?
2) My laptop charge cord actually has another inverter inside tat converts the electricity to 19.5V and 3.33A. What is the resistance in the cord that accomplishes this?

Answer:

1) Charge chord resistance is 75 Ω

2) Charge chord resistance is 6.33 Ω

Explanation:

1) To answer the question, we note that the the formula voltage is found as follows;

V = IR

Therefore,

R = \frac{V}{I} =  \frac{120}{1.6} = 75  \, \Omega

2) Where the voltage, V = 19.5 V and the current, I = 3.33 A, we have;

Initial resistance R₁ = 19.5 V/(3.33 A) = 5.86 Ω

However, to reduce the current to 1.6 A, we have;

R_T = \frac{19.5}{1.6} = 12.1875 \ \Omega

Therefore, where the resistance is found by the sum of the total resistance we have;

R_T = R₁ + Charge chord resistance

∴ 12.1875 = 5.86 + Charge chord resistance

Hence, charge chord resistance = 6.33 Ω

and closing .

The heart has 4 valves. They are what makes the lub-dub lub-dub sounds that can be heard from the chest.  

The mitral valve is located between the left atrium and the left ventricle. It closes the left atrium to collect oxygenated blood from the lungs and opens to pass it on to the left ventricle.

The tricuspid valve is located between the right atrium and the right ventricle. It closes the right atrium to hold unoxygenated blood and opens to pass it on to the right ventricle ensuring a one way flow.

The aortic valve is located between the aorta and the left ventricle. It closes the left ventricle and opens to the aorta to pass on the oxygen-rich blood to the body.

The pulmonary valve is located between the pulmonary artery and the right ventricle. It closes off the right ventricle and opens to pass on unoxygenated blood to the lungs.

A pump is used to transport water to a higher reservoir. if the water temperature is 15ºc, determine the lowest pressure that ca
Reika [66]
Normally, the water pressure inside a pump is higher than the vapor pressure: in this case, at the interface between the liquid and the vapor, molecules from the liquid escapes into vapour form. Instead, when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure, molecules of vapour can go inside the water forming bubbles: this phenomenon is called cavitation. 

So, cavitation occurs when the pressure of the water becomes lower than the vapour pressure. In our problem, vapour pressure at 15^{\circ} is 1.706 kPa. Therefore, the lowest pressure that can exist in the pump without cavitation, at this temperature, is exactly this value: 1.706 kPa.

How do you determine the wattage capacity needed by a power supply?
Lady bird [3.3K]
We could use the formula for the Power supply in order to find the wattage capacity and it would be:

P = V²/R or P = V * I

Hope this helps!
