A - the objects are too small
GRAVITATIONAL FORCE IS EXPERIENCED BY ALL OBJECTS IN THE UNIVERSE ALL THE TIME. BUT THE ORDINARY OBJECTS YOU SEE EVERY DAY HAVE MASSES SO SMALL THAT THEIR ATTRACTION TOWARD EACH OTHER IS HARD TO DETECT. -https://www.ftsd.org/cms/lib6/MT01001165/Centricity/ModuleInstance/630/CHAPTER_2_NOTES_FOR_EIGHTH_GRADE_PHYSICAL_SCIENCE.pdf
Answer:
a) 24.4 Ω
b) 4.92 A
c) 495.9 W
d)
c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.
Explanation:
b)
The formula for power is:
P = IV
where,
P = Power of heater = 590 W
V = Voltage it takes = 120 V
I = Current Drawn = ?
Therefore,
590 W = (I)(120 V)
I = 590 W/120 V
<u>I = 4.92 A</u>
<u></u>
a)
From Ohm's Law:
V = IR
R = V/I
Therefore,
R = 120 V/4.92 A
<u>R = 24.4 Ω</u>
<u></u>
c)
For constant resistance and 110 V the power becomes:
P = V²/R
Therefore,
P = (110 V)²/24.4 Ω
<u>P = 495.9 W</u>
<u></u>
d)
If the resistance decreases, it will increase the current according to Ohm's Law. As a result of increase in current the power shall increase according to formula (P = VI). Therefore, correct option is:
<u>c. It will be larger. The resistance will be smaller so the current drawn will increase, increasing the power.</u>
Galileo discovered during his inclined-plane experiments that a ball rolling down an incline and onto a horizontal surface would roll indefinitely.
