P = ΔV²/R

P = I²R

<u>Explanation:</u>

As a q passes by a resistor, it expends a (q V) where V is the potential drop between the resistor. This energy goes into radiation, much like the type a glob of putty that drops off a rock transforms its potential energy to heat when it strikes the bottom.

The transformation of potential energy into heat is referred to as dissipation. The power consumed in a resistor is the energy consumed per time. If an amount of Δq moves through the resistor in a time Δt, the power P = ΔqV/ Δt

                         P = ΔV²/R

                         P = I²R or IV

Where I is the current through the resistor, R and V is the voltage drop crossed it. The formula P = IV also provides the energy produced by a battery if I is the current spreading from the battery and V is its voltage.

jasenka [17]

Answer:

70 m.

Explanation:

Given,

Frequency, f = 20 HZ

speed of sound, v = 1400 m/s

wavelength of the waves = ?

we know,

v = f λ

\lambda= \dfrac{v}{f}

\lambda= \dfrac{1400}{20}

\lambda=70\ m

Hence, the wavelength of the wave is equal to 70 m.

6. A skier starts from rest at the top of a frictionless incline of height 20.0 m. At
n200080 [17]

Explanation:

a. KE at bottom = PE at top

½ mv² = mgh

v = √(2gh)

v = √(2 × 9.8 m/s² × 20.0 m)

v = 19.8 m/s

b. Work by friction = PE at top

mgμ d = mgh

d = h / μ

d = 20.0 m / 0.210

d = 95.2 m

Miranda performed an experiment to determine what makes an object sink
NemiM [27]

Answer:

I guess the answer is

-The mass and volume of an object determine if it will sink or float

Explanation:

An object that has a higher density than the liquid it's in will sink. An object that has a lower density than the liquid it's in will float.

density=mass/volume
