Answer:

144 W

Explanation:

The power absorbed by a resistor is the product of the current passing through it and the voltage drop across it. Hence

P=IV

P=12\text{ A}\times12\text{ V}=144 \text{ W}

Other variations of this formula are derived using Ohm's law, V=IR

P=I^2R=\dfrac{V^2}{R}

R is the resistance of the resistor. It is what causes the voltage drop.

Particle motion in surface waves is __________ motion.
gulaghasi [49]
<h3>Answer;</h3>

<em>B.)neither longitudinal nor transverse</em>

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Longitudinal waves</u></em> are waves in which the vibration of particles is parallel to the direction of the wave motion.
  • <em><u>Transverse waves</u></em> on the other hand are those waves in which the vibration of particles is perpendicular to the direction of the wave motion.
  • In <em><u>surface waves particles in the medium of transmission move in a circular motion.</u></em> Therefore, they are neither transverse waves nor longitudinal waves.

Using diagram differentiate between solenoid and a toroid
damaskus [11]

The Toroid is form when you have wound conductor around circular body. In this case you have magnatic field inside the core but you dont have any poles because circular body dont have ends. This can be used where you want minimum flux leakage and dont need magnatic poles. i.e. toroidal inductor, toroidal transformer.


The Solenoid is forn when you wound conductor around body with limb. In this case magnatic field creates two poles N and S. Solenoids have little bit flux leakage. This used where you want magnatic poles and flux leakage is not an issue. i.e. relay, motors, electromagnates.

1 == toroid


2= solenoid

Answer:

C. Fill two identical pots with equal volumes of salt water and tap water and use a stopwatch to determine the time it takes each pot to boil.

Explanation:

<u>A) is incorrect</u> because Peter should have the same testing environment for both of his experiments.

He should choose the same method of boiling the salt water and tap water because the stovetop and the microwave could also affect the results and make them unreliable.

<u>B) is incorrect</u> because Peter should not estimate the time it takes the salt water and tap water to boil.

Peter should measure and record the amount of time that it takes these substances to boil in order to have an accurate, valid experimental thesis.

<u>C) is correct</u> because Peter uses the same volume of salt water and tap water, fills them into two identical pots, and uses a stopwatch to determine the amount of time it takes each pot to boil.

The stopwatch makes the experiment more valid and accurate compared to the previous methods, and the identical pots and amounts of water help this experiment become even more precise.

<u>D) is incorrect</u> because the variables in the experiment are not controlled amounts and will therefore produce an inaccurate and invalid experiment.
