What would happen to the brightness of the bulb in the following circuit as I increase the resistance of the variable resistor?

Explain your answer

As you crank the variable resistor to higher resistance, the total current in the loop decreases.  The power dissipated by the light bulb ... the heat and brightness it produces ... depend directly on the current through it, so they decrease too.  Your circuit is a perfect incandescent light dimmer circuit.

A lemming running 3.22 m/s runs off a horizontal cliff. It lands in the water 7.54 m from the base of the cliff. How much time w
LekaFEV [45]

Answer: 2.34s

Explanation:

Given the following :

Horizontal Velocity(V) = 3.22m/s

Horizontal Distance = 7.54m

Therefore, the time spent in the air can be calculated thus:

Using the relation:

Speed = distance / time

3.22m/s = 7.54m / time

Time = 7.54m / 3.22m/s

Time = 2.34s

pogonyaev

Answer:

vf²=vi²+2a∆x

Explanation:

The third equation of motion gives the final velocity of an object under uniform acceleration given the distance traveled and an initial velocity: v 2 = v 0 2 + 2 a d . v^2=v_0^2+2ad. v2=v02+2ad. The graph of the motion of the object.

Mr. White claims that he invented a heat engine with a maximum efficiency of 90%. He measured the temperature of the hot reservo
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

The error he made was that he didn't convert the unit of temperature to Kelvin.

The correct efficiency is 24%

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Temperature of hot reservoir = 100°C = 373 K

Temperature of cold reservoir = 10°C = 273 K

The efficiency of a heat engine is given as:

E = 1 - (Qc/Qh) = 1 - (Tc/Th)

Where

Qc = Output heat;

Qh = Input heat;

Tc = Temperature of the cold reservoir;

Th = Temperature of the hot reservoir.

=> E = 1 - (283/373)

E = 1 - 0.76

E = 0.24

In percentage,

E = 0.24 * 100 = 24%

Hence, the efficiency of the engine is actually 24%.

The error he made was that he didn't convert the temperature to Kelvin. If we leave the temperatures in °C, we have that:

E = 1 - (10/100)

E = 1 - 0.1 = 0.9

In percentage,

E = 0.9 * 100 = 90%
