In an electrical circuit ,the voltage across a resistor is directly proportional to the current running through the resitor.If a

current of twelve amps produces 480 volts across a resistor,how many volts would a current of 1.5 amps produce across an identical resitor?

Answer: The voltage across an identical resistor = 60 Volts

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Given  that voltage across the resistor is directly proportional to the current running through the resitor.

 Mathematically, it would be represented as

Voltage  ∝  Current

Introducing the constant of proportionality,  k which represents the Resistor as it is constant.

we have that

Voltage  = K  x  Current

When current = 12 amps and voltage = 480v, the constant of proportionality  K

480 = k x 12

k = 480/12

k= 40

Step 2 ,

when current = 1.5 amps

 Voltage = ?

Using our equation that

Voltage  = K  x  Current

Voltage = 40 x 1.5

Voltage = 60 Volts

Make y the subject of the formula k=y^2+a
Mama L [17]
To begin, let's take a relatively simple example.
Make x the subject of the formula:
4y + 2 = x - 4.
x = 4y + 6.
Make y the subject of the formula.
2y/5 - 3x = 2.
TIP: Remember to put brackets around 2 + 3x because both the 2 and the 3x are being multiplied by 5.
y = 5 + 15x/2.

Find the area of the shaded region. Round your answer to one decimal place, if necessary figure is not drawn the scale​
pav-90 [236]

Step-by-step explanation:

area of equilateral ∆ =

( \sqrt{3}  \div 4) {a}^{2}

here a = 3

area of ∆ = 3.9 in^2

area of circle

\pi {r}^{2}

= 19.63 in^2

area of shared region = 19.63-3.9= 15.73 in^2
