How can electric energy be converted to heat energy?

Physics

Goshia [24]3 years ago

To do that, you must pass electric current through a substance
that electrons have to spend energy to pass through. 
The substance will be one that gets warm and dissipates heat
when electric current flows through it.
We'll say that the substance has "resistance", which we can measure.
The amount of heat that appears when current flows through it
will be (current²)·(resistance).

A few examples of things used for that purpose:

-- resistors
-- burners on electric stoves
-- coils of resistor-wire in a toaster
-- aquarium heater
-- electric clothes iron
-- electric coffee pot
-- blow-dryer
-- electric hair-curling iron
-- skinny tungsten wire in a light-bulb .

What can you say about the speed of light in diamond?
Inessa05 [86]
So n=c/v, n= index, c=speed of light and v= speed of light in diamond. 2.42=c/v so v=c/2.42, c≈<span>3x108 m/sec</span><span> so v=</span><span>1.24x108 m/sec</span>.

A 2 kg book is pushed from rest to a final velocity of 3 m/s. The book travels 2 m. How much force was the book pushed with
Studentka2010 [4]

Explanation:

first you have to find accelerarion, it is given that the initial velocity(u) is 3 m/s, distance travelled(s) be 2m finall it came to rest so final velocity be 0m/s

now using the 3rd law of motion

v^2=u^2+2as

0=9+2a2

a= -9/4m/s^2

now force=mass×accelration

=2kg×(-9/4)m/s^2

=4.5 N

4.5 newton force applied on the book!

✌️:)
