Answer:

voltage= 17.88volts

current= 0.04 amps

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

resistance R=400 ohms

Power P= 0.8W

a.  What is the maximum voltage that can be applied across this resistor without damaging it?

the expression relating power and voltage is

P=V^2/R

substituting we have

0.8=V^2/400

V^2=0.8*400

V^2=320

V=√320

V=17.88 volts

the maximum voltage is 17.88volts

b.What is the maximum current it can draw?

we know that from Ohm' law

V=IR

17.88=I*400

I=17.88/400

I=0.04amps

mylen [45]

Answer:

The average densities of both matches the expected density for objects made from water ice.

Explanation:

Charon's density is 1.2 to 1.3 g / cm3, while Pluto's density is 1.8 to 2.1 g / cm3. This was discovered in many researches and measurements of these two celestial bodies, with the objective of understanding them and promoting efficient scientific knowledge.

With the measurements of the average densities between pluto and Charon it was possible to conclude several statements about them. Firstly, it is possible to see that the two formed independently and at different times, in addition to indicating the existence of few rocks in charon, which is consistent with the average density of objects made mostly of water ice.

Answer:

ionized particles from the sun.

* interactions in radiation belts.

* the friction of the planet in the solar wind

q = +9 10⁵ C

Explanation:

Due to being made up of matter, the planet Earth has a series of positive and negative charges, in general these charges should be balanced and the net charge of the planet should be zero, but there are several phenomena that introduce unbalanced charges, for example:

* ionized particles from the sun.

* interactions in radiation belts.

* the friction of the planet in the solar wind

This creates that the planet has a net electrical load

         

We can roughly calculate the charge of the planet

             E = k q / r²

             q = E r² / k

let's calculate

             q = 200 (6.37 10⁶)²/9 10⁹

              q = +9 10⁵ C

When you cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, energy is transferred. Identify the three different ways t
ss7ja [257]

When we cook a marshmallow on a metal poker tool over an open flame, there are three ways in which heat energy is transferred: Conduction, convection, and radiation.

<h3>Heat energy transfer</h3>

Heat transfer is the natural transfer of heat from an object with a higher temperature to an object with a lower temperature. Heat transfer can occur in three ways, namely conduction, convection, and  radiation.

  1. Conduction occurs when heat flows from a place with a high temperature to a place with a lower temperature using a fixed heat-conducting medium. Heat transfer from the open flame to the marshmallows via direct fire contact with the marshmallows is an example of conduction.
  2. Convection is the transfer of heat by means of a stream in which the intermediate substance also moves. If the particles move and cause heat to propagate, convection will occur. The hot air rising from the flames burning the marshmallows is an example of convection.
  3. Radiation is heat transfer without a medium. Radiation can also usually be accompanied by light. The direct transfer of heat from the flame to the marshmallow in the form of waves is an example of radiation.

A wire of Nichrome (a nickel-chromium-iron alloy commonly used in heating elements) is 1.3 m long and 1.6 mm2 in cross-sectional
fredd [130]

Answer: 1.3 *10^6 Ω*m

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to use the following expression for the resistence:

R=L/(σ*A) where L and A are the length and teh area for the wire, respectively. σ is the conductivity of teh Nichrome.

Then, from mteh OHM law we have V=R*I so R=V/I=2/3.2=0.625 Ω

Finally we have:

σ=L/(R*A)=1.3/(0.625*1.6*10^-6)=1.3*10^6 Ω*m
