Two light bulbs operate at the same voltage . Why does the bulb with fewer ohms have more watts

Physics

grin007 [14]3 years ago
7 0

Consider the formula W = E^2/R

E is the same for both bulbs. Everything depends on R

Let us suppose that E = 100 volts (high consumption day).

Let us further suppose that r = 2 ohms

W = 100^2 / 2

W = 10,000 / 2

W = 5000 watts . (It's just a number).

---------------

The second bulb  has a resistance of 1 ohm.

W = 100^2 / 1

W = 10000 watts.

The lower the resistance the higher the wattage.

Five identical quintuplets leave earth when they reach the age of 21, in the year 2121. Each quintuplet goes on a spaceship jour
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a problem based on time dilation , a theory given by Albert Einstein .

The formula of time dilation is as follows .

t₁ = \frac{t}{\sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2} } }

t is time measured on the earth and t₁ is time measured by man on ship .

A ) Given t = 20 years , t₁ = ? v = .4c

\frac{20}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.16c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.09 x 20

t₁= 21.82 years

B ) Given t = 5 years , t₁ = ? v = .2c

\frac{5}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.04c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.02 x 5

t₁= 5.1 years

C ) Given t = 10 years , t₁ = ? v = .8c

\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.64c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.67 x 10

t₁= 16.7  years

D ) Given t = 10 years , t₁ = ? v = .4c

\frac{10}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.16c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.09 x 10

t₁= 10.9  years

E ) Given t = 20 years , t₁ = ? v = .8c

\frac{20}{\sqrt{1-\frac{.64c^2}{c^2} } }

=1.67 x 20

t₁= 33.4   years

Planet X is in a stable circular orbit around a star, as shown in the figure. Which of the following graphs best predicts the an
damaskus [11]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Angular momentum is the product of moment of inertia and angular velocity.

L = I × ω

Since the planet follows a stable circular orbit, I and ω are constant and non-zero.  Therefore, the angular momentum is constant and non-zero.
