Answer:
The value of resistance of each resistor, R is 2.25 Ω
Explanation:
Given;
voltage across the three resistor, V = 1.5 V
power dissipated by the resistors, P = 3.00 W
the resistance of each resistor, = R
The effective resistance of the three resistors is given by;
R(effective) = R/3
Apply ohms law to determine the current delivered by the source;
V = IR
I = V/R
I = 3V/R
Also, power is calculated as;
P = IV
P = (3V/R) x V
P = 3V²/R
R = 3V² / P
R = (3 x 1.5²) / 3
R = 2.25 Ω
Therefore, the value of resistance of each resistor, R is 2.25 Ω
Answer: 2700 Joules
Explanation:
Given variables are:
Workdone (w) = ?
Weight of sack (w) = 15N
Time taken (t) = 3 minutes
The standard unit of time is seconds, so convert 3 minutes to seconds
(If 1 minute = 60 seconds
3 minutes = 3 x 60 = 180 seconds)
Recall that work is done is when force is applied on an object over a distance
i.e Workdone = force x distance.
(However, the force acting on the sack of potatoes is weight)
Hence, workdone = weight x time
w = 15N x 180 seconds
w = 2700 J
thus, 2700 joules of work was done.
Answer:
Metals are the good conductors of heat while plastic is a non metal and is not good in conductivity.
Explanation:
From the molecular point of view we usually define conductivity in terms of free electrons which are in abundance in metal and electrons do transfer heat. So when you touch a piece of metal these free electron of metal take that heat from your hand and transfer to the cooler part. "Flow of heat from hotter to colder part". That is the reason it feels colder upon touching the piece of metal. However Plastics do not have this characteristic of conduction of heat.
The world’s supply of fossil fuels will dwindle slowly until a replacement source is found that provides the same power.
bc some day we will actually run out of it and find sth that gives power
