a 15.0k resistor is hooked up to 45.0v battery in a circuit with a switch a.) Draw a circuit diagram for the circuit described.

Luda [366]

For item#1 , see attached picture, there is a voltage source, a resistor and wire (where current flow).

For item#2, we use the formula V=IR where "V" is for the voltage, "I" is for the current and "R" for the resistance
Solving for I:
I = v/r
I = 45volts/15k ohms
I=3 mA

For item#3, power is P=VI
p = 45volts * 3ma
P = 0.135 Watts

anygoal [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Now for this kind of phenomena in which drag cars are very elongated with front wheels placed far away from the rear wheels resulting in keeping the car front end from nosing upward,this is due to the reason because it helps in shifting the center of mass towards the front.

Hence when the car accelerates

torque due to gravity = torque due to air friction
