The heat energy released from a piece of wire or any other section of a circuit is:
Energy = (voltage between its ends) x (current through it) x (time it's been going)
Answer: 5 seconds
Explanation:
Given the following :
Inductance (L) = 40 henry
Resistance = 8 ohms
The circuit given above is a Resistor - Inductor (RL) circuit network. The time constant of an RL circuit is the ratio of the circuit Inductance (L) and Resistance (R). Time constant is measured in seconds.
THAT IS;
Time constant = L / R
THEREFORE ;
Time constant = 40 / 8
Time constant = 5 seconds
1.28m/s the velocity is found by distance/time.
