Answer:

Power, P = 30 W

Explanation:

We have,

Voltage drop of a circuit is 60 V

Resistance of the resistor is 120 ohms

Current across the circuit is 0.5 A

It is required to find the power conducted by the resistor. Power conducted by a resistor is given by :

P=VI

V and I are voltage and current

P=60\times 0.5\\\\P=30\ W

So, the power conducted by the resistor is 30 watts.

When energy is converted from one form to another in a chemical or physical change, which of the following also changes by a mea
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

None of the above

Explanation:

When energy is converted from one form to another in a chemical or physical change, none will change. This is due to the law of conservation of energy. It states that the total energy of the system remains constant. It only changes energy from one form of energy to another. So, the correct option is (d) "none of the above".

Which set of terms best defines what affects kinetic energy and potential energy, respectively?
aleksley [76]
<span>The correct answer is "velocity, height". Kinetic energy is affected by: mass and velocity, while potential energy by: mass, gravity and height (or "position"). Considering these combinations, only the third choice is the correct one: a) position, gravity describe only potential energy, B) gravity, position describe only potential energy, C) velocity, height describe respectively kinetic and potential energy, D) height, velocity would respectively describe potential energy first and then kinetic energy, it is in the wrong order, thus the correct answer is C.</span>

A spherical balloon is inflating with helium at a rate of 72 ft2/min . How fast is the​ balloon's radius increasing at the insta
Yanka [14]

The volume of the balloon is given by:

V = 4πr³/3

V = volume, r = radius

Differentiate both sides with respect to time t:

dV/dt = 4πr²(dr/dt)

Isolate dr/dt:

dr/dt = (dV/dt)/(4πr²)

Given values:

dV/dt = 72ft³/min

r = 3ft

Plug in and solve for dr/dt:

dr/dt = 72/(4π(3)²)

dr/dt = 0.64ft/min

The radius is increasing at a rate of 0.64ft/min

The surface area of the balloon is given by:

A = 4πr²

A = surface area, r = radius

Differentiate both sides with respect to time t:

dA/dt = 8πr(dr/dt)

Given values:

r = 3ft

dr/dt = 0.64ft/min

Plug in and solve for dA/dt:

dA/dt = 8π(3)(0.64)

dA/dt = 48.25ft²/min

The surface area is changing at a rate of 48.25ft²/min

Explain the purpose of capacitors.
alukav5142 [94]
Capacitors can be used in charge pump circuits as the energy storage element in the generation of higher voltages than the input voltage. capacitors are connected in parallel with dc power circuits of most electronic devices to smooth current fluctuations for signal or control circuits.
