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

A long. 1.0 kg rope hangs from a support that breaks, causing the rope to fall, if the pull exceeds 43 N. A student team has bui
raketka [301]

Answer:

6.8 m/s2

Explanation:

Let g = 9.8 m/s2. The total weight of both the rope and the mouse-robot is

W = Mg + mg = 1*9.8 + 2*9.8 = 29.4 N

For the rope to fails, the robot must act a force on the rope with an additional magnitude of 43 - 29.4 = 13.6 N. This force is generated by the robot itself when it's pulling itself up at an acceleration of

a = F/m = 13.6 / 2 = 6.8 m/s2

So the minimum magnitude of the acceleration would be 6.8 m/s2 for the rope to fail

AYE I NEED HELP!<br> Which two things balance and keep a main sequence star in equilibrium?
gladu [14]

Answer:

While self-gravity pulls the star inward and tries to make it collapse, thermal pressure (heat created by fusion) pushes outward. These two forces cancel each other out in a main sequence star, thus making it stable.

True or False: If the initial speed of an object is zero, then the initial position of the object must be the origin. Explain
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is not necessary, that when the initial speed of the object is zero then it must be at origin.

It may be the object starts motion from the left of origin.
