Answer:
R1 + R2 = R = 12 for resistors in series - so R1 = R2 if they are identical
2 R1 = 12 and R1 = R2 = 6 ohms
1 / R = 1 / R1 + 1 / R2 for resistors in parallel
R = R1 * R2 / (R1 + R2) = 6 * 6 / (6 + 6) = 3
The equivalent resistance would be 3 ohms if connected in parallel
Interesting question.
There are a number of factors that may attribute to the pricing of an item say quality of material, number of special features available, and certainly a common notion of brand value (e.g H&M vs GUCCI). Of course, it does not necessarily mean more face value = more expensive.
Typically, to estimate, I would check the brand and material component.
We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material
Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.
One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.
This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.
Answer:
D
Explanation:
Water in itself is a bad conductor of electricity. Any compound that dissociates in water into ions and charged molecules, will increase conductivity of water. In this case ionic compounds weak basis and acids will put in free ions into the water. The ions can pass electricity because they are attracted to respective poles of electricity depending on their charges. In water, these ions are free moving unlike when they are immobilized in their lattice in solid form.
Organic compounds are mainly made of covalent bonds (around carbon) hence do not dissociate in water.
