Answer:
D
Explanation:
I’m pretty sure it’s correct but I don’t really know. Just trying to pass science
Answer: Why does the cord of an electric heater not glow while the heating element does? The heating element of the heater is made up of alloy which has very high resistance so when current flows through the heating element, it becomes too hot and glows red. But the resistance of cord which is usually of copper or aluminum is very low so it does not glow.
Explanation:
Answer: Current = 2 A
Explanation:
Given that an electrical power plant generates electricity with a
current I = 50 A
Potential difference V = 20 000 V
The resistance R will be achieved by Ohms law formula which state that
V = IR
But the power generated will be the product of potential difference and the current
Power P = IV
P = 50 × 20000
P = 1, 000000 W
When the transformer steps up the potential difference to 500 000 V before it is transmitted
Power is always constant.
Using the formula for power again with
V = 500000
1000000 = 500000× I
Make I the subject of formula
Current I = 1000000/500000
Current I = 2 A
