A student rapidly rubs the palms of both hands

Physics
1 answer:
Lapatulllka [165]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Option a

Explanation:

The action of the rapid rubbing of the hands are a result of chemical reaction and responses that takes place inside our body.

When we rub our hands together, that shows the mechanical motion of the body or we can say that while rubbing hands chemical energy gets converted to mechanical energy (here, Kinetic energy).

While rubbing, due to friction, heat is produced and hence we can say that this mechanical energy has transformed to heat energy.

Thus the conversion here is from chemical to mechanical to heat energy.

Circuit A in a house has a voltage of 208 V and is limited by a 40.0-A circuit breaker. Circuit B is at 120.0 V and has a 20.0-A
Setler79 [48]

Given Information:  

Voltage of circuit A = Va = 208 Volts

Current of circuit A = Ia = 40 Amps

Voltage of circuit B = Vb = 120 Volts

Current of circuit B = Ib = 20 Amps

Required Information:  

Ratio of power = Pa/Pb = ?

Answer:  

Ratio of power = Pa/Pb = 52/15

Explanation:  

Power can be calculated using Ohm's law

P = VI

Where V is the voltage and I is the current flowing in the circuit.

The power delivered by circuit A is

Pa = Va*Ia

Pa = 208*40

Pa = 8320 Watts

The power delivered by circuit B is

Pb = Vb*Ib

Pb = 120*20

Pb = 2400 Watts

Therefore, the ratio of the maximum power delivered by circuit A to that delivered by circuit B is

Pa/Pb = 8320/2400

Pa/Pb = 52/15

The current in a series circuit is 19.3 A. When an additional 7.40-Ω resistor is inserted in series, the current drops to 13.4 A
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

16.8ohms

Explanation:

According to ohm's law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends.

Mathematically, V = IRt where;

V is the voltage across the circuit

I is the current

R is the effective resistance

For a series connected circuit, same current but different voltage flows through the resistors.

If the initial current in a circuit is 19.3A,

V = 19.3R... (1)

When additional resistance of 7.4-Ω is added and current drops to 13.4A, our voltage in the circuit becomes;

V = 13.4(7.4+R)... (2)

Note that the initial resistance is added to the additional resistance because they are connected in series.

Equating the two value of the voltages i.e equation 1 and 2 to get the resistance in the original circuit we will have;

19.3R = 13.4(7.4+R)

19.3R = 99.16+13.4R

19.3R-13.4R = 99.16

5.9R = 99.16

R= 99.16/5.9

R = 16.8ohms

The resistance in the original circuit will be 16.8ohms
