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

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.

Why do the golf ball have dimples?
Igoryamba

Answer:

HELLO! I WILL EXPLAIN WHY GOLF BALLS HAVE DIMPLES.

Explanation:

DIMPLES ON A GOLF BALL CREATE A THIN BOUNDARY LAYER OF AIR THAT CLINGS TO THE BALL'S SURFACE. THIS ALLOWS THE AIR TO FOLLOW THE BALL'S SURFACE A LITTLE FARTHER AROUND THE BACKSIDE OF THE BALL, THEREBY DECREASING THE SIZE OF THE WAKE.

25% part (c) assume that d is the distance the cheetah is away from the gazelle when it reaches full speed. Derive an expression
levacccp [35]

maximum speed of cheetah is

v_1 = v_{max}

speed of gazelle is given as

v_2 = v_{g}

Now the relative speed of Cheetah with respect to Gazelle

v_{12} = v_1 - v_2

v_{12} = v_{max} - v_g

now the relative distance between Cheetah and Gazelle is given initially as "d"

now the time taken by Cheetah to catch the Gazelle is given as

d = v_{12}* t

so by rearranging the terms we can say

t = \frac{d}{v_{12}}

t = \frac{d}{v_{max} - v_g}

so above is the relation between all given variable

A force off 700 newtons is applied to a 600 kg bowling ball. What is the acceleration of the bowling ball once the force is appl
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

<h2>1.17 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{700}{600}  =  \frac{7}{6}  \\  = 1.1666666...

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.17 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

An 7.5 × binocular has 3.7-cm-focal-length eyepieces. What is the focal length of the objective lenses? Express your answer to t
elixir [45]

To solve this problem we will apply the concept of magnification, which is given as the relationship between the focal length of the eyepieces and the focal length of the objective. This relationship can be expressed mathematically as,

\mu = \frac{f_0}{f_e}

Here,

\mu = Magnification

f_e = Focal length eyepieces

f_0 = Focal length of the Objective

Rearranging to find the focal length of the objective

f_0 = \mu f_e

Replacing with our values

f_0 = 7.5* 3.7cm

f_0 = 27.75cm

Therefore the focal length of th eobjective lenses is 27.75cm
