By Ohm's Law, we can relate current, voltage and resistance. It is expressed as V=IR. That is, there is a direct relationship between voltage and resistance and voltage and current.

V = IR
V1/2V1 = I1R1 / I2R1/4
1/2 = 4I1/I2
I2 = 8I1

Therefore, <span> it will increase by a factor of 8. Hope this answers the question.</span>

A lawn mower engine running for 20 m i n does 4, 5 6 0, 0 0 0 J of work. What is the power output of the engine?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:3800\ W

Explanation:

Given

Lawn mover running for t=20\ min

and does W=4560\times 10^3\ J

We know Power is rate of work i.e.

P=\frac{\text{Work}}{\text{time}}

P=\frac{4560\times 10^3}{20\times 60}

P=3800\ W

Thus Power output is 3800\ W

A certain fan is capable of using 4800J of electrical energy each minute, converting 4000J of it into kinetic energy of the fan.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

Energy Ouput (Useful) / Total Energy Input = 4000 / 4800 = .833

E = 83%       assuming 4800 is actually input to fan

What is physics and how does it impact your daily life?
GuDViN [60]
Physics in everyday life
Physics, or the study of matter, energy, and the interactions between them, helps us to understand the laws and rules that govern the physical world. Not every student will grow up and study physics on a deeper level, but everyone uses basic physics concepts to navigate everyday life.
