IgorC [24]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

A dissipates more power.

Explanation:

  • In a series circuit, the current is the same at any point in it.
  • The power dissipated in any resistor follows Joule's law, as follows:

        P = I^{2} * R

  • So, for a given current, the power is directly proportional to the resistance of the resistor.
  • In this case, as resistor A has twice the resistance of resistor B, A dissipates twice more power than B.

A swinging pendulum has a total energy of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=E_i" id="TexFormula1" title="E_i" alt="E_i" align="a
Zolol [24]

Answer:

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta} (for small oscillations)

Explanation:

The total energy of the pendulum is equal to:

E_{1} = m\cdot g \cdot (1-\cos \theta)\cdot L

For small oscillations, the equation can be re-arranged into the following form:

E_{1} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-\theta) \cdot L

Where:

\theta = \frac{A}{L^{2}}, measured in radians.

If the amplitude of pendulum oscillations is increase by a factor of 4, the angle of oscillation is 4\theta and the total energy of the pendulum is:

E_{2} \approx m\cdot g \cdot (1-4\theta)\cdot L

The factor of change is:

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx \frac{1 - 4\theta}{1-\theta}

\frac{E_{2}}{E_{1}} \approx 1 -\frac{3\theta}{1-\theta}
