Two resistors, A and B, are connected in a series circuit with a battery. The resistance of A is twice that of B. Which resistor

dissipates more power
Physics

IgorC [24]4 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.

While brayden is traveling along a straight interstate highway, he notices that the mile marker reads 260. Brayden travels until
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

<em>displacement = -85 miles</em>

Explanation:

<u>Displacement </u>

It's a magnitude used to measure the linear space between two points. It's computed as the subtraction of the final position minus the initial position which results in a vector. Notice the displacement only depends on the initial and final positions and not on the path the object has traveled.

Brayden starts to measure his position when the mile marker reads 260. Then he travels to the 150-mile marker and goes back to the 175-mile marker, his final position. As mentioned, the displacement only depends on the relative positions, so

displacement = 175 - 260 = -85 miles

A second baseman tosses the ball to the first baseman, who catches it at the same level from which it was thrown. The throw is m
Anit [1.1K]
 <span>(a) 

Taking the angle of the pitch, 37.5°, and the particle's initial velocity, 18.0 ms^-1, we get: 

18.0*cos37.5 = v_x = 14.28 ms^-1, the projectile's horizontal component. 

(b) 
To much the same end do we derive the vertical component: 

18.0*sin37.5 = v_y = 10.96 ms^-1 

Which we then divide by acceleration, a_y, to derive the time till maximal displacement, 

10.96/9.8 = 1.12 s 

Finally, doubling this value should yield the particle's total time with r_y > 0 

<span>2.24 s

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Problem Solving | Should your directions to a friend for traveling from one city to another include displacements or distances?
wlad13 [49]
This should include distances.  Displacement is the shortest distance from point A to point B.  Distance is the total length of travel.  For an example I have included a simple map.

Displacement would not be an accurate representation of the driving instructions because it would not tell the total length of travel.  Basically, the driver would be going through buildings if you told them displacement.  Directions would tell them the roads traveled.
