Suppose the conducting wire (with resistance R) was replace with one of the same material but has its dimension doubled (the len

gth and the radius having twice their original value. What is the new resistance in comparison to the previous resistance?

Resistance of a wire is directly proportional to its length and inversely proportional to the square of its radius.
Thus, if the length is doubled, and the radius is halved:
R₂ = 2R₁/(1/2)²
R₂ = 8R₁
Therefore the resistance increases eight times.

when electrical energy is used what type of energy is also produced and considered to be waste energy?​
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

<em>Thermal energy</em>

Explanation:

<u>Electrical Energy </u>

The electrical energy has been found to be an excellent resource to power our modern lifestyle. It can be produced in several ways including hydroelectrical plants, thermal plants, nuclear plants, solar panels, among many others. Each one of them converts different types of energy into electrical energy.

When converting to electrical energy, some equipment is needed, like generators, transformers, cables, circuit breakers, and every kind of devices with specific functions to have a good and safe electrical service. Each device has an internal resistance that opposes the flow of current. The resistances produce thermal energy as a result of current flowing through them. It's not possible to avoid this waste of energy, electrical engineers do their best to use better materials and configurations to reduce the thermal waste to a minimum.
