A circuit element maintains a constant resistance. If the current through the circuit element is doubled, what is the effect on

the power dissipated by the circuit element

Answer:

<h3>This shows that the power dissipated by the circuit element is four times its original power if the current is doubled.</h3>

Explanation:

The formula for calculating the power expended in a circuit is P =  I²R... 1

i is the current (in amperes)

R is the resistance (in ohms)

If  a circuit element maintains a constant resistance and the current through the circuit element is doubled, then new current I₂ = 2I

New power dissipated P₂ = (I₂)²R

P₂ = (2I)²R

P₂ = 4I²R ... 2

Dividing equation 2 by 1 will give;

P₂/P = 4I²R/I²R

P₂/P = 4

P₂ = 4P

This shows that the power dissipated by the circuit element is four times its original power if the current is doubled.

7. Nancy has a mass of 60 kg and sits on the very end of a 3.00 m long plank pivoted in the middle. How much torque must her co-
netineya [11]

Answer:

Torque = 882Nm

Explanation:

Torque = Mg×distance

But plank's is pivoted ,therefore distance=3/2=1.5m

Mass of Nancy=60jg

Acceleration due to gravity, g=9.8m/s^2

Torque= 60×9.8×1.5

Torque= 882Nm

what volume of alcohol will have the same mass as 4.2m^3 of petrol? (density of alcohol 0.4kg/m^3 and petrol is 0.3kg/m^3)​
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

3.15m³

Explanation:

To solve this problem, let us first find the mass of the petrol from the given dimension.

       Mass  = density x volume

Volume of petrol  = 4.2m³

Density of petrol  = 0.3kgm⁻³  

       Mass of petrol  = 4.2 x 0.3  = 1.26kg

So;

      We can now find the volume of the alcohol

 Volume of alcohol = \frac{mass}{density}  

Mass of alcohol  = 1.26kg

Density of alcohol  = 0.4kgm⁻³  

  Volume of alcohol  = \frac{1.26}{0.4}   = 3.15m³
