*Used copy paste from my own answer as it is a repeated question, no copied work*

3. A
The relation between V and I at constant R is;V=IR, so it is a direct linear relation.
4. A
This is another direct linear relation as P=IV.
5. D
The relation between P, R, and V is P=, so P is inversely proportional to R.
6.B
The relation between P,I, and R is , so P is directly proportional to the square of I.

Please note that y:x relations are always straight lines while  relations are parabolic lines.

Hope this helps!

A 2600-m-high mountain is located on the equator. how much faster does a climber on top of the mountain move than a surfer at a
puteri [66]

The climber move 0.19 m/s  faster than surfer on the nearby beach.

Since both the person are on the earth, and moves with the constant angular velocity of earth, however there linear velocity is different.

Number of seconds in a day, t=24*60*60=86400 sec

The linear speed on the beach is calculated as

V1=\frac{2πr}{t}

Here, t is the time

Plugging the values in the above equation

V1=\frac{2π*6.4*10^6}{86400}=465.421 m/s

Velocity on the mountain is calculated as

V2=\frac{2π(r+h)}{t}

Plugging the values in the above equation

V2=\frac{2π(6.4*10^6+2600}{86400}=465.61 m/s

Therefore person on the mountain moves faster than the person on the beach by 465.61-465.421=0.19 m/s

How is friction reduced between an air hockey puck and the table.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

An air hockey table has a very smooth and slippery surface which reduces friction by suspending the puck on cushion of air, so that this its motion is much less altered by friction, causing it to glide in a straight line at relatively constant velocity across the table.
