Three resistors having the same resistance value are wired in parallel. How does the equivalent resistance compare to the resist

ance value of a single resistor?
Physics
1 answer:
vfiekz [6]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:The equivalent resistance is less than the resistance of a single resistor

Explanation:

Imagine three 3-ohm resistors connected in parallel.

1/Req= 1/R + 1/R + 1/R

1/Req= 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3

equivalent resistance is [3(1/3)^-1]=1ohm

This is less than the individual resistance of each of the original three ohm resistors. Hence the answer.

What is the relationship between power and voltage?
kipiarov [429]

<u>Answer:</u>

The power and voltage are related through Power Rule .

<u> Explanation : </u>

Power Rule  states  that the current I  that flows the element in the circuit  with a loss in voltage V,  then the amount of  power dissipated by that element in the circuit is the   multiplicative product of  voltage and the current.

Mathematically, power law  is

\boldsymbol{P}=\boldsymbol{I} \times \boldsymbol{V}

The rate of work done or the rate of energy consumption or production is  termed as power.Unit of power is denoted as W(watts).

Potential energy between  any two points on a circuit is called as  Voltage and is measured in volts (V) .

you ride a bike for 2 hours at 25 km/hr then 3 hours at 34 km/hr. what is your average velocity (in km/hr)?
mamaluj [8]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

30.4 km/hr

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given</u>;

  • Speed in the first 2 hours as 25 km/hr
  • Speed in the next 3 hours as 34 km/hr

We are required to determine the average velocity in km/hr

  • To get the average velocity we divide total distance by total time.
  • Thus, we need to determine the total distance

Distance = Speed × time

Distance covered in the first 2 hours;

               = 25 km/hr × 2 hours

               = 50 km

Distance in the next 3 hours

                = 34 km/hr × 3 hours

                = 102 km

Therefore, total distance = 50 km + 102 km

                                        = 152 km

Total time = 2 hrs + 3 hrs

                = 5 hours

Therefore;

Average speed = 152 km ÷ 5 hours

                          = 30.4 km/hr

Thus, the average speed is 30.4 km/hr

When does a lightbulb carry more current, (a) immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing
emmasim [6.3K]

A  lightbulb carries more current immediately after it is turned on and the glow of the metal filament is increasing; option A.

<h3>What is current?</h3>

Current refers to the flow of electric charges typically electrons.

Current flowing through a metallic material decreases with increase in temperature of the material.

This is because the resistance of the metal increases with increase in temperature.

Therefore, for a light bulb, the current flow through it will be maximum when it is just turned on because the temperature, and hence the resistance of the  filament is at its lowest.

In conclusion, current flow decreases with increase in resistance.
