Answer:

Democritus

Explanation:

He called these "uncuttable" pieces atomos. This is where the modern term atom comes from. Democritus first introduced the idea of the atom almost 2500 years ago.

An energy-efficient water heater draws 4 amps in a 220-volt circuit. It costs $75 more that a standard water heater that draws 1
HACTEHA [7]
The answer to the question above is "630.25 hours" which is the time to recoup the difference in the water heater cost. This problem can be solved using a simple algebra equation which stated as (18*115*0.1/1000)x - (4*220*0.1/1000)x = $75. In this formula, x represents the time to recoup the difference in the water heater cost (Calculation: 0.207x-0.088x=75 --> 0.119x = 75 --> x = 630.25)<span>. </span>

Len [333]

Answer:

B) 2I

Explanation:

The equation that relates voltage, current and resistance is V=RI.

The equation for the resistance of a material in terms of its resistivity, length and cross-sectional area is R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

In this case, the length is divided by 2 while keeping its resistivity (since it's the same material) and area, which means the resistance gets divided by 2. Then, looking at the equation I=V/R and keeping V constant, one deduces that since the resistance now is half than before then current now must be twice as before.

This is all intuitive in fact, cuting a homogeneous resistor in half and leaving the rest of the variables constant makes twice as easy for the electrons to cross the conductor, thus twice the current (one has to know that all the variables involved behave linearly, as the equations show).
