Answer: B. The copper wire (resistance 0.1)
Explanation: When resistance is in parallel, voltage (V) is the same but current is different for every resistance. Current (i) is related to voltage and resistance (R) by <em>Ohm's Law</em>
i =
So, since both wires are in parallel, they have the same voltage but because the copper wire resistance is smaller than Nichrome wire, the first's current will be bigger.
Every resistor in a circuit dissipates electrical power (P) that is converted into heat energy. The dissipation can be found by:
P =
As current for copper wire is bigger than nichrome, power will be bigger and it will dissipate more heat.
In conclusion, the copper wire will dissipate more heat when connected in parallel.
Answer:
Given that
Dry-bulb temperature(T) =24°C
Wet-bulb temperature(Tw) = 17°C
Pressure ,P = 1 atm
As we know that psychrometric chart are drawn at constant pressure.
From the diagram
ω= specific humidity
Lets take these two lines Dry-bulb temperature(T) line and Wet-bulb temperature(Tw) cut at point P
From chart at point P
a)
Specific humidity,ω = 0.00922 kg/kg
b)
The enthalpy ( h)
h=47.59 KJ/kg
c)
The relative humidity, RH
RH= 49.58 %
d)
Specific volume ,
v= 0.853 m³/kg
