Answer:

Option B

Solution:

As per the question:

Heat produced at the rate of 10 W  

The resistor R and 2R are in series.

Also, in series, same current, I' passes through each element in the circuit.

Therefore, current is constant in series.

Also,

Power,P' = I'^{2}R

When current, I' is constant, then

P' ∝ R

Thus

\frac{P'}{2R} = \frac{10}{R}

P' = 20 W

Answer:

C/100 = (F-32) / 180

or, C/5 = (F-32)/9

Explanation:

relation between any two scales is given by:

(X- lower fixed point ) / (upper fixed point -lower fixed point)

where X is any temperature

Janelle wants to buy some strings of decorative lights for her home. She is trying to decide between two strings of lights that
inysia [295]
If she has a choice and the wiring details are stated on the packaging,
then Janelle should look for lights that are wired in parallel within the
string, and she should avoid lights that are wired in series within the string. 

If a single light in a parallel string fails, then only that one goes out. 
The rest of the lights in the string continue to shimmer and glimmer.

If a single light in a series string fails, then ALL of the lights in that string
go out, and it's a substantial engineering challenge to determine which light
actually failed.

Two point charges of equal magnitude q are held a distance d apart. Consider only points on the line passing through both charge
NemiM [27]

let us consider that the two charges are of opposite nature .hence they will constitute a dipole .the separation distance is given as d and magnitude of each charges is q.

the mathematical formula for potential is V=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q}{d}

for positive charges the potential is positive and is negative for negative charges.

the formula for electric field is given as-E=\frac{1}{4\pi\epsilon} \frac{q}{r^2}

for positive charges,the line filed is away from it and for negative charges the filed is towards it.

we know that on equitorial line the potential is zero.hence all the points situated on the line passing through centre of the dipole and perpendicular to the dipole length is zero.

here the net electric field due to the dipole can not be zero  between the two charges,but we can find the points situated on the axial  line but  outside of charges where the electric field is zero.

now let the two charges of same nature.let these are positively charged.

here we can not find a point between two charges and on the line joining  two charges  where the potential is zero.

but at the mid point of the line joining two charges the filed is zero.

If the 50 kg boy were in a spacecraft 5.0r from the center of the earth, what would his weight be?
Lady_Fox [76]
·The acceleration of gravity is proportional to

                       1 / (the square of the distance from the center) .

When we're on the surface, we're 1 radius from the center of the Earth,
and the acceleration of gravity is  9.8 m/s² .

The boy's weight = (mass) · (gravity) = (50kg) · (9.8 m/s²)

                                                             =      490 newtons .

At the distance of 5 radii from the center (4 radii altitude from the surface),
the acceleration of gravity is

                 (9.8 m/s²) · (1/5)²  =  0.39 m/s² .

The boy's weight is    (mass) · (gravity)  =  (50kg) · (0.39 m/s²)

                                                                  =     19.6 newtons .

Just as we expected, his weight at that distance is

         (19.6 / 490) = 0.04  =  1/25  =  1/5²  of his weight on the surface.
