If the potential difference applied to a fixed resistance is doubled, the power dissipated by that resistance

Physics

Svetach [21]3 years ago

The power dissipated by a resistor is 
P=I^2 R =  \frac{V^2}{R}
where I is the current, V the voltage and R the resistance.

We can see that if the voltage V is doubled and R is kept fixed, the new dissipated power is
P' =  \frac{(2V)^2}{R}= \frac{4V^2}{R}=4 P
so, it quadruples.

A rectangular block of copper metal weighs 1896 g. The dimensions of the block are 8.4 cm by 5.5 cm by 4.6 cm. From this data, w
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

8.9 g/cm^3

Explanation:

density = mass/volume

volume = length * width * height

volume = (8.4 cm)(5.5 cm)(4.6 cm)

volume = 212.52 cm^3

mass = 1896 g

density = (1896 g)/(212.52 cm^3)

density = 8.9 g/cm^3

A resonant circuit using a 286-nFnF capacitor is to resonate at 18.0 kHzkHz. The air-core inductor is to be a solenoid with clos
lukranit [14]

Answer:

The inductor contains N = 523962.32 loops  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The capacitance of the capacitor is  C =  286nF = 286 * 10^{-9} \  F

      The resonance frequency is  f = 18.0 kHz =  18*10^{3} Hz

       The diameter is  d =  1.1 mm = \frac{1.1 }{1000} = 0.00011 \ m

       The  of the air-core inductor is l = 12 \ m

        The permeability of free space is  \mu_o = 4 \pi *10^{-7} \ T \cdot m/A

 

Generally the inductance of this air-core inductor is mathematically represented as

              L =  \frac{\mu_o * N^2 \pi d^2}{4 l}

This inductance can also be mathematically represented as

               L = \frac{1}{w^2}

Where w is the angular speed mathematically given as

             w = 2 \pi f

So

            L =  \frac{1}{4 \pi ^2 f^2}

Now equating the both formulas for inductance

         \frac{\mu_o * N^2 \pi d^2}{4 l}  =  \frac{1}{4 \pi ^2 f^2}

making N the subject of  the formula

              N = \sqrt{\frac{1}{(2 \pi f)^2} * \frac{4 * l }{\mu_o * \pi d^2 C}  }

              N =  \frac{1}{2 \pi f} * \frac{2}{d} * \sqrt{\frac{l}{\pi * \mu_o * C} }

             

 Substituting value

            N =  \frac{1}{ 3.142  * 18*10^{3} * 0.00011 }  \sqrt{\frac{12}{ 3.142  * 4 \pi *10^{-7}* 286 *10^{-9}} }

              N = 523962.32 loops

How does the current in a circuit change if the resistance is doubled? The current is halved. The current is doubled. The curren
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

The current is halved

Explanation:

The relationship between the current and the resistance is given by Ohm's Law, as follows:

V = IR\\I = \frac{V}{R}

where,

V = Voltage

I = Current

R = Resistance

Therefore, if we double the resistance:

I' = \frac{V}{2R}\\\\I' = \frac{1}{2}I

Hence the correct option is:

<u>The current is halved</u>

What color of light must blue light mix with to create white light?
schepotkina [342]
<h2>Answer: a. Yellow </h2>

According to the additive theory of color, when we join the <u>three primary colors of light</u> (Red + Green + Blue) we get White light.

On the other hand we have <u>secondary colors of ligh</u>t that are:

Yellow = Red + Green

Magenta = Blue + Red

Cyan = Blue + Green

Now, if we know that:

Red + Green + Blue = White

And:

Red + Green = Yellow

Then:

<h2>Yellow + Blue = White</h2>
