Answer:

0.33  Amp

8 Watts

Explanation:

The current through the 12 Ω resistor will be given by Ohm's law:

4 V / 12 Ω = 1/3 Amp ≈ 0.33  Amp

The power dissipated on the 2 Ω resistor can be calculated via the formula: \frac{V^2}{R}  which gives:

4^2 / 2 = 8 Watts

Elenna [48]

Answer:

Li has less mass and therefore less inertia, so he can change his motion more easily than Raj.

Explanation:

Inertia describes the resistance of an object to any change in its state of motion, and it depends on the mass of the object only. In particular:

- if an object has a large inertia (large mass), then it is more difficult to change its state of motion (i.e. to put it in motion, or to slow it down, or to change its direction of motion)

- if an object has small inertia (small mass), then it is more easy to change its state of motion

In this problem, Li has less mass than Raj, so he has less inertia, therefore he can change his motion more easily than Raj.

A 1.5m wire carries a 3 A current when a potential difference of 86 V is applied. What is the resistance of the wire?
Iteru [2.4K]
We know, R = V / I
Here, V = 86 V
I = 3 A

Substitute their values, 
R = 86 / 3
R = 28.67 Ohm

In short, Your Answer would be 28.67 Ohms

Hope this helps!

In the diagram, R1 = 40.0 ,
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

51 Ω.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R₁ and R₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 40 Ω

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 70.8 Ω

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) =?

Since the two resistors are in parallel connection, their equivalent can be obtained as follow:

R₁ₙ₃ = R₁ × R₃ / R₁ + R₃

R₁ₙ₃ = 40 × 70.8 / 40 + 70.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 2832 / 110.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 25.6 Ω

Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the group. This can be obtained as follow:

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) = 25.6 Ω

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 25.4 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?

Rₑq = R₁ₙ₃ + R₂ (series connection)

Rₑq = 25.6 + 25.4

Rₑq = 51 Ω

Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the group is 51 Ω.

4. The chart shows melting and boiling points of
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Firstly, it should be noted that the freezing point of a substance can be assumed to be melting point of that substance because a substance will normally change from liquid to solid (freezes) at the same point it changes from solid to liquid (melts). For example, water freezes at 0°C and also starts melting at 0°C.

Thus, the substance with the lowest melting point among the substances mentioned in the question is alcohol (ethanol) with the melting point of -114°C. Hence, <u>ethanol also has the lowest freezing point thereby freezing at the lowest temperature.</u>
