-- With two resistors in parallel, the total effective resistance is
the reciprocal of  (1/R₁ + 1/R₂).

1/R₁ + 1/R₂  = 1/15 + 1/40

= 8/120 + 3/120

= 11/120

So the total effective resistance is 120/11 = 10.9 ohms .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

= 12 / (120/11)

= (12 · 11) / 120

= 132/120  =  1.1 Amperes

Electrons in an x-ray tube are accelerated through 144 kV and directed toward a target to produce x-rays. Calculate the power of
Katarina [22]

Answer:

Power of the electron beam in the x-ray tube is 2304 W

Explanation:

Given;

voltage of the electron beam in the x-ray tube, V =  144 kV = 144 x 10³ V

current of the electron beam in the x-ray tube, I = 16.0 mA = 16 x 10⁻³ A

Power is given as the product of voltage and current in a circuit.

Power of the electron beam in the x-ray tube, P = V x I

Power of the electron beam in the x-ray tube, P = 144 x 10³ V x 16 x 10⁻³ A

P = 2304 W

Therefore, power of the electron beam in the x-ray tube is 2304 W
