If the current is cut in half and the resistance is increased by a factor of three, how will the power be affected?

One formula for the power dissipated in an electric circuit is

         Power  =  (current)² x (resistance) .

I think that's the one we should use, because it has exactly
all of the quantities that we know or need to find.

OK.       
               Original power  =  (original current)² x (original resistance)
and
               New power  =  (new current)²  x  (new resistance)

                                 =  (0.5 x old current)² x (3 x old resistance)

                                 = (0.25) (old current)² x (3) (old resistance)

                                 =  (0.75) (original current)² (original resistance)

                                 =  (0.75) (original power) .

Summary:        New power  =  (0.75) (original power)

That looks just like
choice B: 
                 The power will decrease to 75 percent of its previous value.

You create a ramp using two text books and a 0.50m board. Using a timer you determine that a cart can roll down the ramp in 0.55
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The velocity of the cart at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s, and the acceleration would be 3.30m/s^2.

Explanation:

Assuming the initial velocity to be zero, we can obtain the velocity at the bottom of the ramp using the kinematics equations:

v=v_0+at\\\\v^2=v_0^2+2ad

Dividing the second equation by the first one, we obtain:

v=\frac{v_0^2+2ad}{v_0+at}

And, since v_0=0, then:

v=\frac{2ad}{at}\\\\v=\frac{2d}{t}\\\\v=\frac{2(0.50m)}{0.55s}\\\\v=1.81m/s

It means that the velocity at the bottom of the ramp is 1.81m/s.

We could use this data, plus any of the two initial equations, to determine the acceleration:

v=v_0+at\\\\\implies a=\frac{v}{t}\\\\a=\frac{1.81m/s}{0.55s}\\\\a=3.30m/s^2

So the acceleration is 3.30m/s^2.

When a cup is placed on a table, which force prevents the cup from falling to the ground?
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B. normal force

Explanation:

Because there is no frictional or resistance force. However gravitational force is applied downroad from the center of the cup thus the contact force that is perpendicular to the surface that an object contacts which is the normal force exerted upward from the table that prevents an object from falling.

a car company wants to ensure its newest model can stop in 50 m when traveling at 30 m/s (which is about 108 km/h). if we assume
Brut [27]

A decrease in velocity is referred to as deceleration. If car is moving at 30 m/s and stop in 50 m .The value of deceleration is 11.56 ms−2.

<h3>How to calculate deceleration ?</h3>

While acceleration is motion in which an object's speed varies every second, deceleration is motion that causes an object to slow down.

We are aware that acceleration refers to an object's rate of increase in speed, and deceleration refers to an object's rate of decrease in speed. For instance, when we apply the brakes while driving, we benefit from the vehicle's ability to decelerate and slow down.

The Deceleration Formula is the final velocity minus the initial velocity, with a negative sign in the result because the velocity is decreasing, if starting velocity, final velocity, and time taken are given.

velocity of car = 30 m/s

car need to stop in 50m

Deceleration a = v^2 –  u^2 / 2s

                          = 0^2 - 50^2 / 2*30

                          = 11.56

Deceleration of the care = 11.56 ms−2

How much time does it take a person to walk 12km north at the velocity at a velocity of 6.5 km/hrs?
alukav5142 [94]

"6.5 km/hr" is not a velocity.  It's just a speed, so
we don't know what direction he's walking.

If he happens to be walking north, then it takes him

               (12 km) / (6.5 km/hr)  =  1.846... hours  (rounded) .

If he's walking in any other direction, it takes him longer than that.

If the angle between north and the direction he's walking is
90 degrees or more, then he can never cover any northward
distance, no matter how long he walks.
