Answer:

Explanation:

For calculating resistance of a conductor , the formula is

R = ρ l / A , ρ is specific resistance , l is length and A is cross sectional area of wire.

For first wire length is l₁ , area is A₁ resistance is R₁, for second resistance is R₂ , length is l₂ and area is A₂

Given , l₁ = 2l₂ , A₁ = 4A₂ , area is proportional to square of thickness.

R₁ / R₂ = I₁A₂ / I₂A₁

= 2l₂ x A₁ / 4 I₂A₁

= 1 / 2

2R₁ = R₂

Power = V² / R

Ratio of power = (V² / R₁) x (R₂ / V²)

= R₂ / R₁

= 2 .

Work is done on a locked door that remains closed while you try to pull it open. True False.
dsp73

Answer:False

Explanation:

Work is being done on a body when it causes displacement of body on the application of force

Work\ done=Force\times displacement

When we pull the door by a force it causes zero displacements of the door. So we can say that work done on it is zero.

Thus the above-given statement is false

7. Imagine you are pushing a 15 kg cart full of 25 kg of bottled water up a 10o ramp. If the coefficient of friction is 0.02, wh
pentagon [3]

Answer:

The frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

Explanation:

The frictional force can be obtained using the following formula:

F= \mu R

where \mu is the coefficient of friction = 0.02

R = Normal reaction of the load = mgcos\theta = 25 \times 9.81 \times cos 10 = 241.52N

Now that we have the necessary parameters that we can place into the equation, we can now go ahead and make our substitutions, to get the value of F.

F=0.02 \times 241.52N

F = 4.83 N

Hence, the frictional force needed to overcome the cart is 4.83N

A 60 W light bulb is powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals. a) What is the current passi
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The current through the resistor is 0.5 A

Explanation:

Given;

power of the light bulb = 60 W

voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals = 120 V

power of the light bulb is the product of voltage in the wall outlet across the plug terminals and the current passing through the resistor.

power = voltage x current

Current = \frac{power}{voltage} = \frac{60}{120} = 0.5 A

Therefore, for a  60 W light bulb powered by a connection to a wall outlet with 120 V across the plug terminals, the current passing through the resistor is 0.5 A
