IgorC [24]3 years ago

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 force of 2N will stretch a rubber band 0.02m. Assuming that Hooke's Law applies, answer the following: How far will a 1600N fo
denis-greek [22]
Hooke's Law states that the extension is directly proportional to the force applied so:
F/x = constant

F₁/x₁ = F₂/x₂
2 / 0.02 = 1600 / x₂
x₂ = 16 m

Elastic work = 1/2 Fx
= 1/2 * 1600 * 16
= 12.8 kJ

katen-ka-za [31]

Magnetic fields

Explanation:

The presence of magnetic fields  best explains why a magnet can act a distance on other magnets or on objects containing certain metals.

  • Magnetic fields are lines of forces around a bar magnet.
  • These lines of forces attracts and repels other magnetic bodies and metallic bodies round it.
  • Magnetic lines of forces originates at the north pole and enters in the south pole.
  • Areas around a magnetic body are bounded by force fields.
  • A magnet has permanent magnetic fields round it.

What is the kinetic energy of a soccer ball which has a mass of 0.8 kg and is kicked at a velocity of 10 m/s
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

Kinetic energy= K.E = (1/2) × mv²

K.E = 0.5× 0.8kg× 100m²/s² = 40 N
