Which statement describes a resistor in a circuit?
kozerog [31]

A resistor in a circuit acts as a switch to control the flow of charge in a circuit.

<u>Explanation:</u>

An electrical components that plays a role of limiting or regulating the electrical current flow is termed as Resistor. It can be helpful for the purpose of giving certain voltage to a device like a transistor. The current that is passing through a resistor has a inverse proportionality with its resistance and direct proportionality to the voltage that is passing across it., provided another factors remaining unchanged. This can be explained by  Ohm's Law.

The electric current that is passing through an electrical circuit will always be dependent on the the voltage and the resistance. When the current flowing throgh a circuit is larger then it can result in heating that damages and burn he resistors or the objects that is present around the circuit.

A cyclist intends to cycle up a 7.70o hill whose vertical height is 126m. Assuming the mass of bicycle plus person is 75.0kg, ca
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

92704.5 J

596.44737 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of person + bicycle = 75 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = Vertical height = 126 m

\theta = Angle = 7.7°

d = Diameter = 0.388 m

Work done against gravity is given by

P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=75\times 9.81\times 126\\\Rightarrow P=92704.5\ J

Work done is 92704.5 J

Force required is given by

F=\dfrac{mgrsin\theta}{\pi d}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{75\times 9.81\times sin7.7\times 5.12}{\pi\times 0.388}\\\Rightarrow F=596.44737\ N

The force is 596.44737 N

Concerning the work done by a conservative force, which of the following statements, if any, are true? It can always be expresse
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

It is independent of the path of the body and depends only on the starting and ending points.

Explanation:

In Physics we define a conservative force as a force that is independent of the path of the body and depends only on the starting and ending points.

For conservative forces we can write;

KEi + PEi = KEf +PEf

where;

KEi= initial kinetic energy

PEi= initial potential energy

KEf= final kinetic energy

PEf= final potential energy

This equation is known as the principle conservation of mechanical energy . It applies only to conservative forces where friction is negligible. The term KE + PE  is also known as the total mechanical energy of the system.

A wire runs left to right and carries a current in the direction shown. What is the direction of the magnetic field at point Z?
Vanyuwa [196]
The correct option is out of the screen.

As the motion of positive charge is the direction of current in the wire. From the right-hand curl rule, the magnetic field direction will be outside the paper or the screen. As the <span>wire runs left to right and carries a current in the direction from left to right, the magnetic field lines will be outside the screen.</span>
