What is the effect on current if both the voltage and the resistance are halved?

Physics
1 answer:
bulgar [2K]3 years ago
3 0

The current through a resistor is

      <u> (voltage across the resistor) / (resistance of the resistor)</u> .

If the numerator and the denominator of that fraction are both
multiplied or divided by the same number, then the value of the
fraction <em>doesn't change</em>.

Answer:

50J

Explanation:

At the top you have(A)

KE_a = O

PE_a = 100J

KE + PE = 100J

At the bottom you have (C)

KE_c= 100J

PE_c=0J

KE+PE = 100J

At point C:

You are at half the height.

We know that at H, PE =100J

PE_c = mgH

At C,

PE_c= mg (H/2) *at half the height

*m and g stay the same

Intuitively, the higher you are, the more potential energy you have.

If you decrease the height by a half, your PE will also decrease

At A:

PE_a / (mg) = H

At B:

PE_b / (mg) = H/2

to also get H on the right hand side, multiply by 2

2 (PE_b/ (mg))= H

2PE_b / (mg) = H

Ok, now that we have set up 2 equations (where H is isolated), find PE at B

AT A = AT B *This way you are saying that H = H (you compare both equations)

PE_a / (mg) = 2x PE_b / (mg)

*mg are the same for both cancel them (you can do that because of the = sign)

PE_a =  2PE_b

We know that PE_a = 100J

100J/2 = PE_b

PE at b = 50J

**FIND KE at b

We know that

KE_b + PE_b is always 100J

100J = 50J + KE_b

KE_b = 50J

Which is a concern about mining for uranium? Heated water could be released into the environment. Dust released in the air could
saw5 [17]

Answer: Dust released in the air could be radioactive.

Explanation:

Uranium is a radioactive element. It decays naturally to attain stability. While mining, the dust displaces into the air causing not only harm to environment but for the workers as well. The released in the air could be radioactive which would be inhaled posing threat for lung cancer.

Thus, the correct answer is dust released in the air could be radioactive is a concern about mining Uranium.

How is the L-section filter useful at both low and high frequencies?​
Gnom [1K]

Answer: High pass filters, and in particular LC high pass filters are used in many RF applications where they block the lower frequencies and allow through higher frequency signals. Typically LC filters are used for the higher radio frequencies where active filters are not so manageable, and inductors more appropriate.

Which of the following lists contains only examples of renewable sources of energy?
anyanavicka [17]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

A. wind, tidal, geothermal, and hydroelectric

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Renewable energy sources are the energy sources that are constantly being replenished, such as sunlight, wind, and water. This means that we can use them as much as we want, and we do not have to worry about them running out.
  • Additionally, renewable energy sources are usually much more environmentally friendly than fossil fuels. Examples of renewable sources of energy includes; solar energy, wind energy, hydroelectric power, tidal energy, geothermal energy, etc.

If the position of a particle on the x-axis at time t is −5t2, then the average velocity of the particle for 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 is
Drupady [299]

Answer:

v = 15 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given the position function

          x = 5 t²

and we are asked for the average velocity in an interval between t = 0 and t= 3 s, which is defined by the displacement between the time interval

          v= \frac{v_{f} - v_{o} }{t_{f} - t_{o} }

let's look for the displacements

        t = 0     x₀ = 0 m

        t = 3     x_{f} = 5 3 2

                     x_{f} = 45 m

 

we substitute

           v = \frac{45 -0}{3 - 0}

           v = 15 m / s
