what happens to the current across a circuit when the voltage is doubled while the resistance is held back

2 answers:

8 0

The current is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. So doubling or tripling the resistance will cause the current to be one-half or one-third the original value

Since the current is inversely propotional to its resistance, when the voltage is doubled the current will be one-half

A 50.0-kg box rests on a horizontal surface. The coefficient of static friction between the box and the surface is 0.300 and the

Dimas [21]

Answer:

98N and 147N

Explanation:

We have the following information:

$m=50kg\\\mu_s =0.4\\\mu_k = 0.2\\F=140N$

We can find the static fricton force as follow,

$F=\mu_s * N$

Where N is the normal force (mg)

$F=0.3*50*9.8\\F=147N$

Static friction force at 147N is greater than the force applied hence body does not move.

$F=\mu_k N = 0.2*50*9.8= 98N$

What is newton first law

andrew11 [14]

Answer:

Newtons first law states that:

If a body is in rest or motion in a straight line, it remains at rest or at motion in a straight line with constant speed until and unless and external unbalanced force acts on it.

'This law is also known as the law of Inertia.'

Which process requires more energy: completely vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at 1 atm pressure or completely vaporiz

Lilit [14]

The correct answer would be the first option. The process that would need more energy would be vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid water at a pressure of 1 atmosphere. This can be seen from the latent heat of vaporization of each system. For the saturated water at 1 atm, the latent heat is equal to 40.7 kJ per mole while, at 8 atm, the latent heat is equal to 36.4 kJ per mole. The latent heat of vaporization is the amount of heat needed in order to vaporize a specific amount of substance without any change in the temperature. As we can observe, more energy is needed by the liquid water at 1 atm.

Two pipes move the same amount of ideal fluid in the same amount of time. One pipe has a 2 in. diameter; the other has a 3 in. d

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

a) 3-in. pipe

Explanation:

Given that

Fluid flow is in same amount in the same time it means that volume flow rate is same for the pipes

Volume flow rate

Q = A V

A=Area ,V=Velocity

$A=\dfrac{\pi}{4}d^2$

If diameter d is more then the velocity will be less for same volume flow rate .We also Know that if pressure is more then the velocity will be less.

The second pipe 3 in diameter having more diameter then the velocity will be less but the pressure will be more.

That is why the 3 in diameter is having more pressure than 2 in diameter pipe.

Therefore the answer will be a.

a) 3-in diameter pipe
