How is the current controlled for a given voltage

Physics
1 answer:
Leni [432]4 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The current can be controlled by modifying the resistance value

Explanation:

The current can be controlled by modifying the resistance value, usually a variable resistance device called potentiometer is used. This can be observed mathematically using the ohm law which is defined as voltage equal to the current product by resistance.

V = I*R

where:

I = current [amp]

R = resistance [ohm]

V = voltage [volt]

We can see that if we reduce the resistance the current will be increased

I = v / R

And if we amplify the resistance (R) the current will be diminished

<h3>What is sound wave?</h3>

A sound wave is the pattern of disruption brought on by the movement of energy moving through a medium as it propagates away from the source of the sound (such as air, water, or any other liquid or solid substance). Pressure waves are produced when an item vibrates, such as a ringing phone, and these waves are known as sound waves. The surrounding medium's particles are disturbed by the pressure wave, and those particles disrupt the particles next to them, and so on. Like ocean waves, the disturbance's pattern causes outward movement in all directions. Usually in all directions and with decreased intensity as it gets further away from the source, the wave transmits the sound energy through the medium.

Using an example, explain how being able to understand scientific principles and think scientifically can help you solve problem
crimeas [40]

One example is that when their food catches fire in a cooking pot or pan, it is advisable to smother the fire by covering the fire with a blanket rather than douse the fire with water. DOeing the later will only aggravate the fire. Knowledge of basic science dictates that oil and water are immiscible liquids the oil will continue to burn even as the water is poured into the oil. More so, as the water violently evaporates due to the heat, it spreads the burning oil and hence spreads the fire.

In this problem you will consider the balance of thermal energy radiated and absorbed by a person.Assume that the person is wear
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:P=14.6 W

Explanation:

According to the Stefan-Boltzmann law for real radiating bodies:

P=\sigma A \epsilon T^{4} (1)

Where:

P is the energy radiated (in Watts)

\sigma=5.67(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}} is the Stefan-Boltzmann's constant.  

A is the Surface area of the body  

T=30\°C + 273.15= 303.15 K is the effective temperature of the body (its surface absolute temperature) in Kelvin

\epsilon=0.6 is the body's emissivity

On the other hand, we are told the human body is roughly approximated to a cylinder of length L=2.0m and circumference C=0.8m.

The circumference of a circle is:C=0.8m=2 \pi r where r is the radius. Hence r=\frac{0.8m}{2 \pi}=0.1273 m.

Now we have to input this value for r  in the Area of a cylinder formula:

A=\pi r^{2}L

A=\pi (0.1273 m)^{2}(2 m)

A=0.0509 m^{2} (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

P=(5.67(10)^{-8}\frac{W}{m^{2} K^{4}}) (0.0509 m^{2}) (0.6) (303.15 K)^{4} (3)

Finally:

P=14.62 W \approx 14.6 W

Two physics students are standing on skateboards and facing each other. Their masses, including the skateboards, are 95 kg and 5
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

1) \sum \vec p=0\ kg.m.s^{-1}

2) v_2=55.078\ m.s^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

  • mass of heavier student, m_1=95\ kg
  • mass of lighter student, m_2=58\ kg
  • velocity of the heavier student after the mutual push, v_1=3.1\ m.s^{-1}

1)

Since they push each other and we are neglecting any friction that means we can consider this as a perfectly elastic collision. So the momentum of the two bodies will be equal and in opposite direction.

Since momentum is a vector quantity so the total momentum of the system as a whole will be zero.

2)

<u>From the condition of elastic collision:</u>

p_1=p_2

m_1.v_1=m_2.v_2

95\times 3.1=58\times v_2

v_2=55.078\ m.s^{-1}
