Answer:

P = VI = (IR)I = I2R

Explanation:

What the equation means is that if you double the current you end up with 4 times the power loss. It's like the area of carpet you need for a room - if you make the room twice as long and twice as wide you need 4x as much carpet. The physical explanation is that the voltage difference along a wire depends on the current - more current flowing with a resistance means more voltage (pressure of electricity if you like) is built up.

This extra voltage means more power. So if you double the current your would double the power, but you also double the voltage which doubles the power again = 4x as much power. P = VI = (IR)I = I2R

I hope this helps you out, if I'm wrong, just tell me.

As I mentioned earlier, Ohm's law gives us the formula P = IV, where V is the voltage ( also known as the electrical potential difference ) and I is the current. It is confusing that P = I²R and P = IV are one in the same - so I want to go a bit deeper on that.

We have three formulas, P = IV, P = I²R, and P = V² / R. Each are considered the same. The two formulas P = I²R, and P = V² / R are derived from the statement that P = IV, under the condition V = IR. Substitute the value of V from this second condition V = IR into P = IV. You would get the following -

P = I( IR ),

P = I²R

That is how one can derive the formula P = I²R, and how P = IV and P = I²R are thought to be one in the same. If you would like, take a look at how to get the formula " P = V² / R, "

V = IR, P = IV

I = V / R, P = IV

P = ( V / R )V,

P = V² / R

<u><em>Hope that helps!</em></u>

A 1700 W laser emits light with a wavelength of 700 nm into a 3.0 mm diameter beam. What force does the laser beam exert on a co

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

F=5.7×10⁻⁶

Explanation:

Not knowing a formula outright, I decided to follow the units of some relationships I did know. Radiation pressure is defined as force per area and also intensity divided by velocity (the speed of light here of course). Breaking intensity down into power per area and isolating force gave me the relationship F=(Power/Velocity),where power is given and the velocity is a constant.

My work is in the attachment, where I double checked the units too, comment with any questions.

A ball is launched from ground level and hits the ground again after an elapsed time of 4 seconds and after traveling a horizont

Mumz [18]

Answer:

a. It is constant the whole time the ball is in free-fall

Explanation:

If we divide the movement on its vertical and horizontal components, and we concentrate on the vertical component, let's call x-component, and analyze Newton's second's law:

$\sum\overrightarrow{F_{x}}=m\overrightarrow{a_{x}}$

with $\sum\overrightarrow{F_{x}}$ , $a_{x}$ the acceleration on horizontal direction and m the mass of the ball, because the only force acting on the object is gravity that is always vertical, there're not forces on the horizontal direction that means $\sum\overrightarrow{F_{x}}=0$ and by (1) that implies $a_{x}$ =0 there's not acceleration on horizontal direction.

Because acceleration is the rate at what velocity changes and there's no acceleration, there's no change in velocity, in other words velocity is constant on horizontal direction.
