A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines, among other uses. High-power resistors that can dissipate many watts of electrical power as heat, may be used as part of motor controls, in power distribution systems, or as test loads for generators. Fixed resistors have resistances that only change slightly with temperature, time or operating voltage. Variable resistors can be used to adjust circuit elements (such as a volume control or a lamp dimmer), or as sensing devices for heat, light, humidity, force, or chemical

A 47-kg packing crate is pulled with constant speed across a rough floor with a rope that is at an angle of 37 degrees above the
levacccp [35]

Tension in the rope due to applied force will be given as

F = 142 N

angle of applied force with horizontal is 37 degree

displacement along the floor = 6.1 m

so here we can use the formula of work done

W = F d cos\theta

now we can plug in all values above

W = 142 * 6.1 * cos37

W = 691.8 J

So here work done to pull is given by 691.8 J

Calculate the mass of an ice block of volume 12m³. the density of the ice is 920kg/m³.​
beks73 [17]

Mass = density • volume

so (12)(920)(kg/m^3•m^3)

11040 kg

What is the law of conservationl​
Alik [6]

Conservation law, also called law of conservation, in physics, several principles that state that certain physical properties (i.e., measurable quantities) do not change in the course of time within an isolated physical system

How do the groups of the periodic table correspond
hichkok12 [17]
They correspond due to the fact that certain elements are grouped together based on the number of valence electrons on the outer shell of their electron configuration. 
For instance, sulfur (S) has 6 electrons in the outer shell, as it is in the 6th group EXCLUDING transition metals (note, never take these into account, as their charge is always +2; a cation)
