Two resistors, A and B, individually connect to a 9V battery. A student notices that resistor A is warmer than resistor B. Which
1 answer:
Answer:
Resistor B
Explanation:
Since resistance is the opposition to the flow of current in a circuit,
first let assume the two resistors are connected in parallel to the voltage, recall that when connection is in parallel, the different amount of current pass through the resistors depending on the value with the small resistor having a lower resistance effect hence higher current will pass through
The energy dissipated in each resistor can be calculated as
.
from the formula we can conclude that the energy value will be higher for the resistor with small resistance value. hence more heating effect which will cause it to be warm.
Also when connected individually the current flow from the voltage source will pass through the resistor which when we calculate the energy dissipated, the resistor with smaller value will be higher because it will draw more current which will in turn lead to a heating effect and cause the resistor to be warm. Hence we can conclude that the resistance B has greatest resistance value.

Answer:
Explanation:
Given data:
initial construction co = 0.286 wt %
concentration at surface position cs = 0 wt %
carbon concentration cx = 0.215 wt%
time = 7 hr
for 0.225% carbon concentration following formula is used
where, erf stand for error function
from the table erf(Z) value = 0.751 lie between (z) = 0.80 and z = 0.85 so by inteerpolation we have z = 0.815
from given table
x = 0.002395 mm
