Answer:

Explanation:

Capacitor of 0.75μF, charged to 70V and connect in series with 55Ω and 140 Ω to discharge.

Energy dissipates in 55Ω resistor is given by V²/R

Since the 55ohms and 140ohms l discharge the capacitor fully, the voltage will be zero volts and this voltage will be shared by the resistor in ratio.

So for 55ohms, using voltage divider rule

V=R1/(R1+R2) ×Vt

V=55/(55+140) ×70

V=19.74Volts is across the 55ohms resistor.

Then, energy loss will be

E=V²/R

E=19.74²/55

E=7.09J

7.09J of heat is dissipated by the 55ohms resistor

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The force due to hammering changes the shape of the piece of iron

Explanation:

How hard you hammer the iron while it is hot will cause the iron to change shape or reform the way you want it.

A resistor with an unknown resistance is connected in parallel to a 13 Ω resistor. When both resistors are connected in parallel
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

R2 = 10.31Ω

Explanation:

For two resistors in parallel you have that the equivalent resistance is:

\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}\\\\      (1)

R1 =  13 Ω

R2 = ?

The equivalent resistance of the circuit can also be calculated by using the Ohm's law:

I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}\\\\R_{eq}=\frac{V}{I}            (2)

V: emf source voltage = 23 V

I: current = 4 A

You calculate the Req by using the equation (2):

R_{eq}=\frac{23V}{4A}=5.75\Omega

Now, you can calculate the unknown resistor R2 by using the equation (1):

\frac{1}{R_2}=\frac{1}{R_{eq}}-\frac{1}{R_1}\\\\R_2=\frac{R_{eq}R_1}{R_1-R_{eq}}\\\\R_2=\frac{(5.75\Omega)(13\Omega)}{13\Omega-5.75\Omega}=10.31\Omega

hence, the resistance of the unknown resistor is 10.31Ω

Sound and light are both found as _____, with a variety of ____. The sun, a source of light waves specifically, releases a type
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

Waves; wavelength; electromagnetic energy; ultraviolet light.

Explanation:

Sound are mechanical waves that are highly dependent on matter for their propagation and transmission.

Sound travels faster through solids than it does through either liquids or gases.

Light wave can be defined as an electromagnetic wave that do not require a medium of propagation for it to travel through a vacuum of space where no particles exist.

Hence, sound and light are both found as waves, with a variety of wavelength. The sun, a source of light waves specifically, releases a type of electromagnetic energy. It can be found as UVA or UVB types. These lights give off different levels of ultraviolet light, some of wich can be harmful.

Additionally, the ultraviolet spectrum is divided into three categories and these are; UVA, UVB and UVC.
