All three have the same current, so that is not a factor. Wattage (power) is E*I or i^2 R. The higher the resistance, the more power dissipated. The answer is R3 because it has the highest resistance.
R3 <<<< ===== answer.

The diagram shows a heat engine. In which area of the diagram is unusable thermal energy detected?
Marat540 [252]
Nope, I disagree with the former answer. The answer is definitely Z. <u>W area</u> (boxed with red outline) is represented as the hot reservoir while <u>Z area</u> is the cold reservoir (boxed with blue outline). X area is the heat engine itself and Y area is the work produced from thermal energy from hot reservoir. Typically, all heat engines lose some heat to the environment (based from the second law of thermodynamics) that is symbolically illustrated by the lost energy in the cold reservoir. This lost thermal energy is basically the unusable thermal energy. The higher thermal energy lost, the less efficient your heat engine is.

When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion? *
Ganezh [65]
+1 An electron has a negative charge so losing a charge of -1 from an uncharged, or neutral, atom will leave an ion with a positive charge.

Janice has just measured the density of an object. Which value is possible? (Density: D = )
babunello [35]
It is 6 g/cm3 because density cannot be negative, and it is not speed in which the unit would be m/s.

You have two lightweight metal spheres, each hanging from an insulating nylon thread. One of the spheres has a net negative char
kkurt [141]

Answer:attract each other

Explanation:

When two-sphere, one with a negative charge and another neutral is brought close together but do not touch then they try to attract each other.

This because of the polarization of the neutral sphere as it is placed in the vicinity of a negatively charged sphere. The negatively charged sphere will induce the positive charge in the neutral sphere and they will attract each other according to Columb law.
