Answer:

The current in the circuit increases

Explanation:

The ohm's law states that the potential across a circuit is proportional to the current in the circuit.

V ∝ I

Where 'V' is the potential difference across the circuit and 'I' is the current in the circuit.

The proportionality constant present in the equation is the resistance of the circuit. Hence, the equation becomes

V = IR

According to the equation, when V is directly proportional to 'I' where 'R' remains as constant, then the change in 'V is brings change in 'I' to make the equation valid.

So, when there is an increase in the voltage, the current on the circuit increases.

A 60kg student traveling in a 1000kg car with a constant velocity has a kinetic energy of 1.2 x 10^4 J. What is the speedometer

777dan777 [17]

Answer:

17.64 km/h

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 1000 kg

Kinetic energy of car, K = 1.2 x 10^4 J

Let the speed of car is v.

Use the formula for kinetic energy.

$K = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$

By substituting the values

$1.2\times 10^{4} = \frac{1}{2}\times 1000\times v^{2}$

v = 4.9 m/s

Now convert metre per second into km / h

We know that

1 km = 1000 m

1 h = 3600 second

So, $v = \left (\frac{4.9}{1000} \right )\times \left ( \frac{3600}{1} \right )$

v = 17.64 km/h

Thus, the reading of speedometer is 17.64 km/h.

In each case, lifting or pushing, why must you exert a force to move the object? Q1-2: How much more effort is required to lift

musickatia [10]

Answer:

Newton's first law applies. An object at rest will stay that way until a force is applied.
Any amount of effort can be applied to any amount of mass (in the ideal case). The question is not sufficiently specific.

Explanation:

A force is required to move an object because the object will stay at rest until a force is applied.

The effort required to lift or push two masses instead of one depends on the desired effect. For the same kinetic energy, no more effort is required. For the same momentum, half the effort is required for two masses. For the same velocity, double the effort is required.
