The resistance of resistor is greater for:

Physics
1 answer:
Monica [59]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

c: long and thin resistor.

Explanation:

The resistance of a resistor is given by:

R = ρ*L/A

where:

R = resistance

ρ = resistivity (depends on the material)

L =  length of the material

A = cross-sectional area of the material

We can see that the length is on the numerator, which means that if we increase the length, then the resistance is increased.

We also can see that the cross-sectional area is on the denominator, then if we increase the area (for example, with a ticker resistor) the resistance decreases.

Then if we want to maximize the resistance, we need to have a long and thin resistor, so the correct answer is c.

The angle of inclination is calculated using sin function,

sin θ = 5 m / 20 m = 0.25

θ = 14.4775° 

 

<span>The net force exerted is then calculated:
F net = m g sin θ = 20 * 9.8 * 0.25 </span>

F net = 49N 

<span>Work is product of net force and distance:
W = F net * d = 49 * 20 </span>

If a blender is plugged into a 168 V outlet that supplies 80.8 A of current, what amount of
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

Power = 13.5744 kilowatts

Explanation:

Power is the rate at which work is done. ... Great power means a large amount of work or energy developed in a short time. For example, when a powerful car accelerates rapidly, it does a large amount of work and consumes a large amount of fuel in a short time.

Formula for power = work/time

= IVT/T

= IV

Where I is the current

And V is the voltage

The voltage V supply = 168 v

The current A supply = 80.8 A

Power = 80.8*168

Power = 13574.4 watts

Power = 13.5744 kilowatts

Three conducting plates, each of area A, are connected as shown.
Shkiper50 [21]
You have effectively got two capacitors in parallel. The effective capacitance is just the sum of the two. 
Cequiv = ε₀A/d₁ + ε₀A/d₂ Take these over a common denominator (d₁d₂) 
Cequiv = ε₀d₂A + ε₀d₁A / (d₁d₂) Cequiv = ε₀A( (d₁ + d₂) / (d₁d₂) ) 
B) It's tempting to just wave your arms and say that when d₁ or d₂ tends to zero C -> ∞, so the minimum will occur in the middle, where d₁ = d₂ 
But I suppose we ought to kick that idea around a bit. 
(d₁ + d₂) is effectively a constant. It's the distance between the two outer plates. Call it D. 
C = ε₀AD / d₁d₂ We can also say: d₂ = D - d₁ C = ε₀AD / d₁(D - d₁) C = ε₀AD / d₁D - d₁² 
Differentiate with respect to d₁ 
dC/dd₁ = -ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) / (d₁D - d₁²)² {d2C/dd₁² is positive so it will give us a minimum} For max or min equate to zero. 
-ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) / (d₁D - d₁²)² = 0 -ε₀AD(D - 2d₁) = 0 ε₀, A, and D are all non-zero, so (D - 2d₁) = 0 d₁ = ½D 
In other words when the middle plate is halfway between the two outer plates, (quelle surprise) so that 
d₁ = d₂ = ½D so 
Cmin = ε₀AD / (½D)² Cmin = 4ε₀A / D Cmin = 4ε₀A / (d₁ + d₂)

You make the following measurements of an object 42kg and 22m3 what would the objects density be
miv72 [106K]
The density of the object is approximately 1.91 kg per m³.

42 kg is a measure of mass, and 22 m³ is a measure of volume. Knowing this, you can use the relationship $$density = mass / volume$$ to solve for the object's density.

42 kg \div 22 m³ \approx 1.91 kg per m³.
