If the resistance doubles while the voltage stays the same, what effect will that have on the power?

1 answer:

4 0

The best formula to use for this question is

Power = (voltage)² / R

So Original power = (voltage)² / (original R)
and
New power = (same voltage)² / (2 x original R)

That's equal to (1/2) (voltage)² / (original R)

which is equal to (1/2) (original power) .

So I guess the power decreases by half, and that's choice-B .

Answer:

Cools ; size

Explanation:

The rate at which magma cools determines the size of the crystals in the new rock. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma which finds its way to the surface or depth of very low pressure beneath the surface. This place or depth of cooling of magma affects the cooling rate and hence the size of the crystals formed. Igneous rocks formed at depths below the surface have more time to cool and allows more time for Crystal growth and hence produce coarse grained crystal grains called Intrusive igneous rocks which have significantly larger crystals than those formed on the surface which cools rapidly and allowing very little time for crystal growth giving rise to the formation of fine grained crystals and are called extrusive igneous rocks.

How does Kepler's first law refine the Copernican model?

AnnZ [28]

Copernicus's model states that the sun is in the center, and that the planets move around it in a circle. Kepler's first law of planetary motion says that they move around the sun in an ellipse.

brainly an andean condor with a wingspan and a mass soars along a horizontal path. model its wings as a rectangle with a width.

Anna35 [415]

The difference between the pressure at the top surfaces of the condor's wings and the pressure at the bottom surfaces is 101,204 Pa.

<h3>Difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wingspan</h3>

The difference in pressure between the top and bottom of the wingspan is calculated as follows;

ΔP = P(top) - P(bottom)

<h3>Area of the wingspan</h3>

A = bh

A = 2.7 m x 0.27 m

A = 0.729 m²

<h3>Weight of the Andean condor</h3>

W = mg

W = 9 x 9.8

W = 88.2 N

<h3>Pressure at the top surface of condor's wings</h3>

The pressure at the top surface of condor's wings is due to atmospheric pressure

P(top) = 14.7 Psi = 101,325 Pa

<h3>Pressure at the bottom surface of condor's wings</h3>

The pressure at the bottom surface is due to weight of andean condor.

P = W/A

P(bottom) = 88.2/0.729

P(bottom) = 120.99 Pa

The difference between the pressure at the top surfaces of the condor's wings and the pressure at the bottom surfaces is calculated as;

ΔP = P(top) - P(bottom)

ΔP = 101,325 Pa - 120.99 Pa

ΔP = 101,204 Pa

The complete question is below;

An Andean condor with a wingspan of 270 cm and a mass of 9.00 kg soars along a horizontal path. Model its wings as a rectangle with a width of 27.0 cm.

A ball is thrown straight up. What are the velocity and acceleration of the ball at the highest point in its path?

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

b. v = 0, a = 9.8 m/s² down.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The acceleration of gravity is always directed to the ground (down) and, near the surface of the earth, has a constant value of 9.8 m/s². Since the answer "b" is the only option with an acceleration of 9.8 m/s² directed downwards, that would solve the exercise. But why is the velocity zero at the highest point?

Let´s take a look at the height function:

h(t) = h0 + v0 · t + 1/2 g · t²

Where

h0 = initial height

v0 = initial velocity

t = time

g = acceleration due to gravity

Notice that the function is a negative parabola if we consider downward as negative (in that case "g" would be negative). Then, the function has a maximum (the highest point) at the vertex of the parabola. At the maximum point, the slope of the tangent line to the function is zero, because the tangent line is horizontal at a maximum point. The slope of the tangent line to the function is the rate of change of height with respect to time, i.e, the velocity. Then, the velocity is zero at the maximum height.

Another way to see it (without calculus):

When the ball is going up, the velocity vector points up and the velocity is positive. After reaching the maximum height, the velocity vector points down and is negative (the ball starts to fall). At the maximum height, the velocity vector changed its direction from positive to negative, then at that point, the velocity vector has to be zero.
