You have two resistors with the same cross sectional area and resistivity. Resistor A has length L1 and resistor B has length L2

. Assume L2 > L1. If the resistors are connected in series with a battery, which resistor has the most power delivered to it? Explain. b: If they are connected in parallel with a battery, which resistor has the most power delivered to it? Explain.

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Resistor A has length L_1

and Resistor B has Length L_2

and Resistance is given by

R=\frac{\rho L}{A}

Considering \rhoand A to be constant thus

R_2>R_1 because L_2>L_1

(a)When they are connected in series

As the current in series is same and power is i^2R

therefore P_2>P_1 as R is greater for second resistor

(b)if they are connected in Parallel

In Parallel connection Voltage is same

P=\frac{V^2}{R}

resistance of 2 is greater than 1 thus Power delivered by 1 is greater than 2

Answer:

0.785 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

To solve this problem we will use the equation of motion of the harmonic oscillator, <em>i.e.</em>

x(t) = A cos(\omega t )+B sin(\omega t) - (1)

\frac{dx}{dt}(t) = \omega (B cos(\omega t )- A sin(\omega t) - (1)

The problem say us that the spring is released from rest when the spring is stretched by 0.100 m, this condition is given as:

x(0) = 0.100

\frac{dx}{dt}(0) = 0

Since cos(0)=1 and sin(0) = 0:

x(0)=A

\frac{dx}{dt}(0) = -B\omega

We get

A =0.100\\B = 0

Now it say that after 0.4s the weigth reaches zero speed. This will happen when the sping shrinks by 0.100. This condition is written as:

x(0.4) = - 0.100

Since

x(t) = 0.100 cos(\omega t)\\ -0.100=x(0.4)=0.100cos(\omega 0.4)

This is the same as:

-1 = cos(0.4\omega)

We know that cosine equals to -1 when its argument is equal to:

(2n+1)π

With n an integer

The first time should happen when n=0

Therefore:

π = 0.4ω

or

ω = π/0.4  -- (2)

Now, the maximum speed will be reached when the potential energy is zero, <em>i.e. </em>when the sping is not stretched, that is when x = 0

With this info we will know at what time it happens:

0 = x(t) = 0.100cos(\omega t)

The first time that the cosine is equal to zero is when its argument is equal to π/2

<em>i.e.</em>

t_{maxV}=\pi /(2\omega)

And the velocity at that time is:

\frac{dx}{dt}(t_{maxV} ) =- 0.100\omega sin(\omega t_{maxV})\\\frac{dx}{dt}(t_{maxV} ) =- 0.100\omega sin(\pi/2)\\

But sin(π/2) = 1.

Therefore, using eq(2):

\frac{dx}{dt}(t_{maxV} ) = 0.100*\omega = 0.100\frac{\pi}{0.400} = \pi/4

And so:

V_{max} = \pi / 4 =0.785

professor190 [17]

Answer: Because of Inertia

Explanation: According to Newton first law, that a body in a linear motion will continue to be in motion except an external for act on it

But also, a body in motion will always like to continue in motion and have a reluctance tendency to stop because of inertia.

the crash test dummies' bodies will continue to move forward even though the car stopped because of inertia.

Katyanochek1 [597]
I believe that the answer to the question provided above is that with increase in resistance provided with constant current, Power dissipated will be lessen since power loss is high. Low power dissipation has low heat production.
Hope my answer would be a great help for you.    If you have more questions feel free to ask here at Brainly.

Answer:

774.8 secs

Explanation:

distance(d)= speed(v)* time(t)

calculate speed:

refractive index = speed of light (c)/ speed of light in medium (v)

1.56 = 3*10^8*v

v=192307692.3 m/s

d = v *t

t = d/v

on substituting values:

t = 774.8 secs
