(A) We can solve the problem by using Ohm's law, which states:

where
V is the potential difference across the electrical device
I is the current through the device
R is its resistance
For the heater coil in the problem, we know

and

, therefore we can rearrange Ohm's law to find the current through the device:

(B) The resistance of a conductive wire depends on three factors. In fact, it is given by:

where

is the resistivity of the material of the wire
L is the length of the wire
A is the cross-sectional area of the wire
Basically, we see that the longer the wire, the larger its resistance; and the larger the section of the wire, the smaller its resistance.
Answer:
10.8s
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Force on the car = 3250N
Distance = 35m
Power = 11375W
Unknown:
Time taken = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem;
Power is the rate at which work is done
Power =
Work done = force x distance = 3250 x 35 = 123200J
Now;
11375 =
11375t = 123200
t = 10.8s
