By definition, the power is equal to the product of the current high squared by the value of the resistance.
 In other words:
 P = I ^ 2 * R
 where,
 I: Current
 R: resistance
 If we double the resistance in a circuit but keep the current in it constant, then:
 P = (I ^ 2) * (2 * R)
 P = 2 * (I ^ 2 * R)
 The power increases twice.
 answer:
 The power dissipated by that circuit will increase twice

Gravitational potential energy added =

                   (mass) x (gravity) x (distance lifted)

                 =  (852 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (3.5 m)

                 =  (852 x 9.8 x 3.5)  kg-m²/s²

                 =        29,223.6  joules

When a board with a box on it is slowly tilted to larger and larger angle, common experience shows that the box will at some poi
eimsori [14]

Answer: The force of kinetic friction is smaller than that of static friction, but F_g  remains the same.

Explanation:

The situation is same as when a book is pushed with an increasing force on a table; When the force is low, book doesn't move, until that under a given force starts moving, and then it goes on movement even if the force decreases a bit.

The physical explanation for this, that friction force adopts any value needed to avoid to move the object, till a limit value is achieved, called static friction force, equal to the normal force times the static friction coefficient.

Once in movement, the kinetic friction coefficient replaces the static one , and  in general is lower than the static one, so the force diminishes.

In the case of the box sliding down the board, the force that tries to move the object down the board, is the component of the weight parallel to the board, that can be showed that being equal to the weight times the sinus of the angle of the board with the horizontal, as follows:

F_g = m g sin θ

When θ increases, F_g does the same, so friction force always has the same magnitude than F_g (but opposite direction) so the box doesn't move, till that θ takes a value that produces a F_g equal to static friction force.

Beyond this limit angle, F_g (remaining the same for a given angle) is greater than the kinetic friction force, and the box slides.

In the limit, when θ=90º, sin θ =1⇒ F_g = mg, so the object is in free fall.

Nothing happens.  The frequency is determined at the source,
and it doesn't change along the way.
