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>

The time for a sound wave to travel between two people is 0.80 s,
sasho [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

Using the below formula

Speed of sound = ( distance between observers) *2/(total time taken)

Now putt the given values ,

time taken = 0.80 sec

distance = 256 m

hence

V of sound= 256*2/0.80

V of sound = 640 m/sec

The work function for tungsten metal is 4.52eV a. What is the cutoff (threshold) wavelength for tungsten? b. What is the maximum
Tanya [424]

Answer: a) 274.34 nm; b) 1.74 eV c) 1.74 V

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to consider the energy balance for the photoelectric effect on tungsten:

h*ν = Ek+W ; where h is the Planck constant, ek the kinetic energy of electrons and W the work funcion of the metal catode.

In order to calculate the cutoff wavelength we have to consider that Ek=0

in this case  h*ν=W

(h*c)/λ=4.52 eV

λ= (h*c)/4.52 eV

λ= (1240 eV*nm)/(4.52 eV)=274.34 nm

From this h*ν = Ek+W;  we can calculate the kinetic energy for a radiation wavelength of 198 nm

then we have

(h*c)/(λ)-W= Ek

Ek=(1240 eV*nm)/(198 nm)-4.52 eV=1.74 eV

Finally, if we want to stop these electrons we have to applied a stop potental equal to 1.74 V . At this potential the photo-current drop to zero. This potential is lower to the catode, so this  acts to slow down the ejected electrons from the catode.
