Answer:

The potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Resistance, R = 5 ohms

Charge, q = 720 C

Time, t = 1 min = 60 s

We know that the charge flowing per unit charge is called current in the circuit. It is given by :

I = 12 A

Let V is the potential difference between the ends of a wire. It can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

V = IR

V = 60 Volts

So, the potential difference between the ends of a wire is 60 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa

Explanation:

As wee know that the amplitude of the wave will decide the energy of the wave

Here we know that energy density of electromagnetic wave is given as

$u = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0E_0^2$

now we have

$\frac{I}{c} = \frac{1}{2}\epsilon_0 E_0^2$

so here we can say that intensity of the wave at the given distance from the source is given by formula

$I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

so here as we increase the distance the intensity will decrease and hence the amplitude of the electric field will decrease and vice-versa.
