<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

the one with the highest specific heat

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to raise the temperature by one degree Celsius.
  • The specific heat of water is 1 calorie/gram °C or 4.186 joule/gram °C which is higher than any other common substance.
  • <em><u>A metal with the highest specific heat will cause the greatest increase in temperature of water in a calorimeter because the metal would hold more heat, and then transfer the greater quantity of heat to the water.</u></em>

List three ways a<br> a home may become more energy efficient.
Natali [406]

Answer:

1. Installing solar panels on the roof. This is an example of renewable energy, and solar panels help provide electricity for a home.

2. Using LED lights instead of traditional lightbulbs. The modern LED lights use much less electricity and function up to 90% more efficiently than the traditional lightbulbs.

3. Using rain barrels to collect water from the roof. Installing rain barrels to collect rainwater to water your plants and garden is a great way to save water and cut down on your water bill.

Hope this helps! :)

Two resistors of 2 ohms each are connected in parallel, another resistor of 1 ohm is connected in series with the parallel combi
insens350 [35]

Answer:

The power dissipated in either one of the parallel resistors is 2 V

Explanation:

Given;

two parallel resistors, R₁ and R₂ = 2 ohms

The total resistance of the Two resistors of 2 ohms connected in parallel is;

R_T = \frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2} = \frac{2*2}{2+2} = \frac{4}{4} = 1 \ ohm

when connected to another resistor  of 1 ohm in series, the total resistance becomes;

Rt = R₁ + R₂

Rt = 1 + 1 = 2 ohms

Current in the circuit, I = voltage / total resistance

                                      = 2 /2 = 1 A

the overall circuit has been resolved to series connection, and current flow in series circuit is constant.

Power = I²R

Thus,  power dissipated in either one of the parallel 2 ohms resistors is;

Power = I²R = (1)² x 2 = 2 V
