How does changing the potential difference in a circuit affect the current and the resistance?

Physics
1 answer:
Effectus [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The current will be increased and also for the resistance.

Explanation:

The analysis of a direct current circuit can give us the explanation we need. Using the ohm law, which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the current by the resistance we have:

V=I*R\\where\\V= voltage [V]\\I= amperes [amp]\\R=resistance [ohm]\\

The voltage is equal to the potential difference therefore we will have these expressions:

I=\frac{V}{R} \\R= \frac{V}{I}

If we increase the potential differential or circuit voltage, the current will also increase and so does the resistance by increasing the voltage. If we put numerical values in the equation given before, we can confirm this fact.

A stone was dropped off a cliff and hit the ground with a speed of 96 ft/s. What is the height of the cliff? (Use 32 ft/s2 for t
nadezda [96]
The initial velocity of the stone is 0 ft/s. Given the initial velocity (Vi), final velocity (Vf), and acceleration due to gravity (g), the distance may be calculated through the equation,
                                     d = ((Vf)² - (Vi)²) / 2g
Substituting the known values,
                                     d = ((96 ft/s)² - 0))/ (2x32.2)
The value of d is 143.10 ft.

Which statement regarding sound traveling in air is correct?
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: D. A wave with a shorter wavelength is always faster than one with a longer wavelength

Explanation: "Imagine two sets of waves that have the same speed. <u><em>If one set has a longer wavelength, it will have a lower frequency (more time between waves). If the other set has a shorter wavelength, it will have a higher frequency</em></u> (less time between waves). Light moves even faster AND has shorter wavelengths."

Why it's not C: "The number of complete wavelengths in a given unit of time is called frequency (f). <em><u>As a wavelength increases in size, its frequency and energy (E) decrease</u></em>. From these equations you may realize that as the frequency increases, the wavelength gets shorter. As the frequency decreases, the wavelength gets longer."

Why it's not B: "The frequency does not change as the sound wave moves from one medium to another. Since the speed changes and the frequency does not, the wavelength must change."

Why it's not A: "Do loud sounds travel faster than soft sounds? No. Both travel at the same speed The speed depends on the medium it passes through. Louder sounds are simply sound waves with higher amplitude traveling at the same speed."

A fisherman notices that his boat is moving up and down periodically without any horizontal motion, owing to waves on the surfac
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

a)   v = 0.9167 m / s,  b)  A = 0.350 m,  c)  v = 0.9167 m / s, d)  A = 0.250 m

Explanation:

a) to find the velocity of the wave let us use the relation

          v = λ f

the wavelength is the length that is needed for a complete wave, in this case x = 5.50 m corresponds to a wavelength

           λ = x

           λ = x

the period is the time for the wave to repeat itself, in this case t = 3.00 s corresponds to half a period

          T / 2 = t

           T = 2t

period and frequency are related

           f = 1 / T

           f = 1 / 2t

we substitute

           v = x / 2t

           v = 5.50 / 2 3

           v = 0.9167 m / s

b) the amplitude is the distance from a maximum to zero

          2A = y

           A = y / 2

           A = 0.700 / 2

           A = 0.350 m

c) The horizontal speed of the traveling wave (waves) is independent of the vertical oscillation of the particles, therefore the speed is the same

      v = 0.9167 m / s

d) the amplitude is

           A = 0.500 / 2

           A = 0.250 m
