Answer:

The option (b) is correct.

Explanation:

The expression for the power in terms of work done is as follows;

P=\frac{W}{t}

Here, W is the work done, t is the time taken and P is the power.

According to the given problem, six identical resistors are connected in series with a battery. The number of joules per second supplied by the battery is then determined.

The expression for the equivalent resistance in the series combination is as follows;

R_{eq}=R_{1}+R_{2}......+R_{6}

Put R_{1},R_{2}......,R_{6}=R.

R_{eq}=R+R+R+R+R+R

R_{eq}=6R

It is given in the problem that a seventh resistor is added (in series).

R_{eq}=R_{1}+R_{2}......+R_{7}

Put R_{1},R_{2}......,R_{7}=R.

R_{eq}=R+R+R+R+R+R+R

R_{eq}=7R

The expression for the power in terms of voltage and resistance is as follows;

P=\frac{V^{2}}{R}

Here, R is the resistance.

From the above expression, it can be concluded that the power, the number of joules per second supplied by the battery is inversely proportional to the resistance. The equivalent resistance increases if the seventh resistance is connected with a battery.

If a seventh resistor is added (in series) the number of joules per second supplied by the battery decreases.

Therefore, the option (b) is correct.

Compare the strengths of UV light and microwaves (in Hz). Which type of light is more powerful and how do you know?
TEA [102]

Answer:

UV light is more powerful as it has greater energy.

Explanation:

The energy propagated by electromagnetic waves ( light ) through vacuum or medium is known as electromagnetic radiation.

The frequency/wavelength range of electromagnetic radiation is known as electromagnetic spectrum. The electromagnetic spectrum ranging from gamma ray to radio waves.

Frequency range of UV light = ( 8 x 10¹⁴ to 3 x 10¹⁶ ) Hz

Frequency range of Microwaves = ( 300 x 10⁶ to 300 x 10⁹ ) Hz

Ratio of UV light to Microwaves = (\frac{8\times10^{14} }{300\times10^{6} } to \frac{3\times10^{16} }{300\times10^{9} } )

                                                     = ( 2.66 x 10⁶ to 1 x 10⁸ )

Energy of electromagnetic radiation is given by the relation:

E = hν

Here h is plank's constant and ν is frequency.

UV light is more powerful than Microwaves as frequency of UV light is greater than frequency of microwaves. Thus, by the above equation, the energy of UV light is more than energy of Microwaves.

You look at a barometer and see that the air pressure is getting much higher... How will the weather probably change? *
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

The weather will clear up and get sunnier.

Explanation:As weather forecasters monitor air pressure, falling barometer measurements can signal that bad weather is on the way. In general, if a low pressure system is on its way, be prepared for warmer weather with storms and rain. If a high pressure system is coming, you can expect clear skies and cooler temperatures.

hope this helped:)

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!
Arisa [49]

Hello!

\large\boxed{\text{C. 7,350,000 J}}

Use the equation:

PE = mgh

Where:

m = mass of the object (kg)

g = acceleration due to gravity (≈9.8 m/s)

h = height above ground (m)

Plug the given values into the equation:

PE = 7500 · 9.8 · 100

PE = 7,350,000 Joules.
