Answer:

$P=I^2R$

Explanation:

The power dissipated in a resistor is given by the equation:

$P=I^2 R$

where

P is the power

I is the current

R is the resistance

We can also rewrite the equation by using Ohm's law:

$V=IR$

where V is the potential difference across the resistor. Rewriting R as

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

The equation for the power becomes

$P=VI$

8. A 30-kg box is sliding down a frictionless plane that is sloped at 24º. Assuming the object starts at rest,

Katena32 [7]

The net force on the box parallel to the plane is

∑ F[para] = mg sin(24°) = ma

where mg is the weight of the box, so mg sin(24°) is the magnitude of the component of its weight acting parallel to the surface, and a is the box's acceleration.

Solve for a :

g sin(24°) = a ≈ 3.99 m/s²

The box starts at rest, so after 7.0 s it attains a speed of

(3.99 m/s²) (7.0 s) ≈ 28 m/s

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The ratio of the translational rms speed in the ionosphere to the translational rms near the earth's surface is $\sqrt 3 :1$

Explanation:

The relation between the translational rms speed and the temperature is given by :

$v_{rms}=\sqrt{\dfrac{3kT}{m}}$

So, $v_{rms}\propto \dfrac{1}{\sqrt{T} }$

When the temperature is three times greater.

$v'_{rms}=\dfrac{1}{3T}$

The ratio of the translational rms speed in the ionosphere to the translational rms near the earth's surface is :

$\dfrac{v_{rms}}{v'{rms}}=\dfrac{\sqrt 3}{1}$

Hence, this is the required solution.
