How does a switch work in a circuit​

Physics
1 answer:
NNADVOKAT [17]3 years ago
5 0

An electric switch is a device that interrupts the electron flow in a circuit. Switches are primarily binary devices: either fully on or off and light switches have a simple design. When the switch is turned off, the circuit breaks and the power flow is interrupted. Circuits consist of a source of power and load.

What amount of heat is required to raise the temperature of 200 g of water by 15°C (the specific heat of water is 1 cal/g°C)
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

Explanation:

Find:

Mass of water (M) = 200 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 15°C

Specific heat of water (C) = 1 cal/g°C

Find:

Heat energy required (Q) = ?

Computation:

Q = M × ΔT × C

Heat energy required (Q) = Mass of water (M) × Change in temperature (ΔT) × Specific heat of water (C)

Heat energy required (Q) = 200 g × 15°C × 1 cal/g°C

Heat energy required (Q) = 3,000 J

if the current is 0.4 A for the 20 ohm resistor, what is the value for the potential difference? ii) Would it be different for t
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:potential difference is more or less like voltage. Using ohms, V=IR

Where V is Voltage

I is Current =0.4A

R is Resistance=20ohms

V=0.4*20

V=8V

Hence the potential difference will be 8V.

ii) V=0.4*30

V=12V

Explanation:

The voltage of potential difference is directly proportional to the current and the resistance. So if one increase or decrease, it will have impact on the other.

From the calculations, when the resistance increase, the voltage will increase to appreciate the change.
