We repeat the experiment from the video, but this time we connect the wires in parallel rather than in series. Which wire will n

ow dissipate the most heat? View Available Hint(s) We repeat the experiment from the video, but this time we connect the wires in parallel rather than in series. Which wire will now dissipate the most heat? The copper wire (resistance 0.1 Ω ) Both wires will dissipate the same amount of heat. The Nichrome wire (resistance 2.7 Ω ) Submit Provide Feedback Next

Answer:

The copper wire (resistance 0.1 Ω )

Explanation:

In a parallel connection, the same voltage is maintained across all the resistors but the current varies.

The larger the magnitude of the resistance, the smaller the current flowing in the circuit and the smaller the heat dissipated by the resistor.

Hence the copper wire dissipates the greatest heat.

How can a model be created to predict how forces affect objects at a distance?
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

Gravitational force increases as the masses of the objects increase and decreases as the distance between the objects increases. Balanced forces acting on an object cause no change in the motion of the object. When unbalanced forces act on an object, the sum of the forces is not equal to zero.

If a sound is 30 dB and its absolute pressure was 66 x 10-9 Pa, what must have been the reference pressure?
Ksenya-84 [330]

Given:

I = 30dB

P = 66 × 10^{-9} Pa

Solution:

Formula used:

I = 20\log_{10}(\frac{P}{P_{o}})           (1)

where,

I = intensity of sound

P = absolute pressure

P_{o} = reference pressure

Using Eqn (1), we get:

30 = 20\log _{10}\frac{66\times 10^{-9}}{P^{o}}

P_{o} = \frac{66\times 10^{-9}}{10^{1.5}}

P_{o} = 2.08 × 10^{-9} Pa

Electron guns are used in X-ray tubes. The electrons are accelerated through a relatively large voltage and directed onto a meta
Paul [167]

Answer:

(a) Number of electrons per second strike the target is 3.125 x 10¹⁵.

(b) Charge that strikes the target in 0.750 s is 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ C .

Explanation:

(a) Let n be the number of electrons per second strike the target. We know that current (I) is given by the relation :

I = n x e

Here e is charge of electron.

Substitute 0.500 x 10⁻³ A for I and 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C for e in the above equation.

0.500 x 10⁻³ = n x 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹

n = 3.125 x 10¹⁵

(b) Let q be the charge that strikes the target. We know that :

q = I x t

Here I is current and t is time.

Substitute 0.500 x 10⁻³ A for I and 0.750 s for t in the above equation,

q = 0.500 x 10⁻³ x 0.750

q = 3.75 x 10⁻⁴ C

long, straight, vertical wire carries a current upward. Due east of this wire, in what direction does the magnetic field point?
Kamila [148]

Answer:

The correct answer to the question is;

North

Explanation:

Fleming's left hand rule   states that the direction of a magnetic field acting on a current carrying conductor is perpendicular to both the force acting on the current carrying conductor and the direction of the current.

Therefore, since the direction of the current is upward and a force is acting with a direction towards the east of the wire then the direction of the magnetic field is northwards.
