A battery of voltage V delivers power P to a resistor of resistance R connected to it. By what factor will the power delivered t

Anettt [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Power P = V² / R

a ) The resistance is changed to 2.90R

Power will become 1 / 2.9 times .

b )The voltage of the battery is now 2.90V, but the resistance is R

P = (2.9V)² / R

= 8.41 x V² / R

So power becomes 8.41 times

c )The resistance is 2.90R and voltage is 2.90V

Power P = (2.9V)² / 2.9 R

= 2.9 V²/R

So power becomes 2.9 times

d ) The resistance is 2.90R and the voltage is V/2.90

Power P = ( V/2.90)² x 1 / 2.90R

1 / ( 2.9 )³ x V² / R

= 1 / 24.389 x V² / R

So power becomes 1 / 24.389 times .

A 12 oz can of soda is left in a car on a hot day. In the morning the soda temperature was 60oF with a gauge pressure of 40 psi.

Neko [114]

In this case, volume of the can remains constant. The relationship between pressure and temperature at constant volume is given by:

P/T = Constant

Then
$\frac{ P_{1} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{ P_{2} }{ T_{2} }$

Where
P1 = 40 psi
P2 = ?
T1 = 60°F ≈ 289 K
T2 = 90°F ≈ 305 K (note, 363 K is not right)

Substituting;
$P_{2} = \frac{ P_{1} T_{2} }{ T_{1} } = \frac{40*305}{289} =42.21 psi$

A lab cart with a mass of 15 kg is moving with constant velocity, v, along a straight horizontal track. A student drops a 2 kg m

lbvjy [14]

The equation $15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f}$ (option 3) represents the horizontal momentum of a 15 kg lab cart moving with a constant velocity, v, and that continues moving after a 2 kg object is dropped into it.

The horizontal momentum is given by:

$p_{i} = p_{f}$

$m_{1}v_{1}_{i} + m_{2}v_{2}_{i} = m_{1}v_{1}_{f} + m_{2}v_{2}_{f}$

Where:

m₁: is the mass of the lab cart = 15 kg

m₂: is the mass of the object dropped = 2 kg

$v_{1}_{i}$ : is the initial velocity of the lab cart

$v_{2}_{i}$ : is the initial velocity of the object = 0 (it is dropped)

$v_{1}_{f}$ : is the final velocity of the lab cart

$v_{2}_{f}$ : is the final velocity of the object

Then, the horizontal momentum is:

$15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = 15v_{1}_{f} + 2v_{2}_{f}$

When the object is dropped into the lab cart, the final velocity of the lab cart and the object will be the same, so:

$15v_{1}_{i} + 2*0 = v_{f}(15 + 2)$

Therefore, the equation $15v_{i} + 2*0 = (15 + 2)v_{f}$ represents the horizontal momentum (option 3).

you add equal amounts of heat to two identical cylinders containing equal amounts of the same ideal gas. cylinder a is allowed t

OleMash [197]

Temperature rise will be there in cylinder B more than in cylinder A because of internal energy.

what is internal energy?

The sum of the kinetic and chemical potential energies of all the particles in the system is the internal energy. Particles accelerate and pick up kinetic energy when energy is applied to increase the temperature.

Briefing:

Cylinder A uses the heat it absorbs to both work while expanding and to increase internal energy (or temperature).

While cylinder B solely uses the heat it absorbs to increase its internal energy

As a result, cylinder B's temperature rise is greater than cylinder A's.
