A series circuit has a voltage supply of 12 V and a resistor of 2.4 kΩ. How much power is dissipated by the resistor?

Physics

adell [148]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

(B) 0.06W

Explanation:

power absorbed by the resistor is given by \frac{V^2}{R}=I^2R

Where V = voltage

           R= resistance

            I =  current through the circuit

we have given V =12 Volt and resistance =2.4 K\Omega

current I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{12}{2.4\times 1000}=5\times 10^{-3}A=5mA

power using voltage and resistance equation

p=\frac{12^2}{2.4\times 1000}=60mW =0.06W

using current equation P=I^2R=5^2\times 12=60mW= 0.06W

You hang a heavy ball with a mass of 10 kg from a gold wire 2.6 m long that is 1.6 mm in diameter. You measure the stretch of th
PolarNik [594]

<u>Answer:</u> The Young's modulus for the wire is 6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Young's Modulus is defined as the ratio of stress acting on a substance to the amount of strain produced.

The equation representing Young's Modulus is:

Y=\frac{F/A}{\Delta l/l}=\frac{Fl}{A\Delta l}

where,

Y = Young's Modulus

F = force exerted by the weight  = m\times g

m = mass of the ball = 10 kg

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81m/s^2

l = length of wire  = 2.6 m

A = area of cross section  = \pi r^2

r = radius of the wire = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{1.6mm}{2}=0.8mm=8\times 10^{-4}m      (Conversion factor:  1 m = 1000 mm)

\Delta l = change in length  = 1.99 mm = 1.99\times 10^{-3}m

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Y=\frac{10\times 9.81\times 2.6}{(3.14\times (8\times 10^{-4})^2)\times 1.99\times 10^{-3}}\\\\Y=6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2

Hence, the Young's modulus for the wire is 6.378\times 10^{10}N/m^2
