"How do changes in voltage or resistance affect current in an electric circuit?"

Physics
1 answer:
kicyunya [14]3 years ago
5 0
We can answer the question by looking at the Ohm's law, which gives us the relationship between voltage (V), current (I) and resistance (R) of a circuit:
V=IR
equivalently, we can rewrite it as
I= \frac{V}{R}

by looking at the equation, we can make the following observations:
1) The current is proportional to the voltage: therefore, if the voltage increases, the current increases as well; if the voltage decreases, the current decreases too.
2) The current is inversely proportional to the resistance: if the resistance increases, the current decreases, and if the resistance decreases, the current increases.

What is the magnitude of force required to accelerate a car of mass 1.7 * 10 ^ 3 kg by 4.75 m/s
Gnesinka [82]

What is the magnitude of force required to accelerate a car of mass 1.7 × 10³ kg by 4.75 m/s²

Answer:

F = 8.075 N

Explanation:

Formula for force is;

F = ma

Where;

m is mass

a is acceleration

F = 1.7 × 10³ × 4.75

F = 8.075 N

An astronaut goes to Mars to do some experiments. Explain why her mass stays the same but her weight changes.
Snowcat [4.5K]
Because mass does not change from place to place but weight does change from place to place... why? because weight is the amount of gravitational force on an object and mass is the amount of matter in an object. mars has less gravitational force so an object will weigh less than it really weighs there

An observer sees a flower pot sail up and then back down past a window 2.45 m high. If the total time the pot is in the sight is
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: 2.55meter

Explanation: Using the second equation of motion.

S{hieght} = U*t + {g*t²}/2

Where U is initial velocity =0m/s

g is acceleration due to gravity 10m/s²

t is time 1secs

So we have,

hieght = 0 + {g*t²}/2

hieght = {10*(1)²}/2

Total hieght travelled is 10/2

Which is 5 meter.

But we are asked to find the hieght above the window which as a hieght of 2.45meter.

So,

hieght above window would be

{5 - 2.45}meter

Which is 2.55 meter.

If the opening to the harbor acts just like a single-slit which diffracts the ocean waves entering it, what is the largest angle
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The angle that the wave would be \theta = sin ^{-1}\frac{2 \lambda}{D}

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  the  opening to  the  harbor acts just like a single-slit so a boat in the harbor that at angle equal to the second diffraction minimum would be safe and the  on at angle greater than the diffraction first minimum would be slightly affected

  The minimum is as a result of destructive interference

       And for single-slit this is mathematically represented as

               D sin \ \theta =m \lambda

where D is the slit with

          \theta is the angle relative to the original direction of the wave

         m is the order of the minimum j

        \lambda is the wavelength

Now since in the question we are told to obtain the largest angle at which the boat would be safe

      And the both is safe at the angle equal to the second minimum then

    The the angle is evaluated as

           \theta = sin ^{-1}[\frac{m\lambda}{D} ]

Since for second minimum m= 2

The  equation becomes

               \theta = \frac{2 \lambda}{D}

Help with speed problems #1-3
-Dominant- [34]
1. Each plot represents the meters traveled by both the Hare and the Tortoise over a certain period of time (minutes).

2. The Tortoise lines show it lines is steadily increasing over a period of time. So as more time elapses the faster the tortoise becomes it travels more meters. The Tortoise line shows steady acceleration.

3. The Hare in the first 5 minutes had a rapid fast advancement up to 40 meters. But for the 5-20 mins. period the Hare did not move at all. Its speed stayed at the same place. But towards the end 20-25 mins. marks the Hare started moving again. At the end the Hare at first had a rapid acceleration but stopped for a long time then it sped up briefly.
