PLEASE HELP IF YOUR GOOD AT PHYSICS!!!The speed of a bullet train is measured to be 312.0 mph 3.9 mph. What is the percent

A certain resistor dissipates 0.5 W when connected to a 3 V potential difference. When connected to a 1 V potential difference,

Stels [109]

Answer:

Explanation:

$Power = IV$

From ohms law we know that

$V= IR\\\\I= \frac{V}{R} \\\\Power= \frac{V}{R}*V\\\\Power= \frac{V^2}{R}$

Given data

P1 = 0.5 Watt

P2 = ?

V1= 3 Volts

V2= 1 Volt

Thus we can solve for the power dissipated as follows

$P1= \frac{V1^2}{R1}\\\\P2= \frac{V2^2}{R2}$

$\frac{P1}{P2} = \frac{V1^2}{V2^2}\\\\ P2=\frac{ V2^2}{ V1^2} *P1\\\\ P2=\frac{ 1^2}{ 3^2} *0.5= 0.055= 0.056 W$

<em>The resistor will dissipate 0.056 Watt</em>

With the switch closed, how does the voltage across the 20-ω resistor compare to the voltage across the 10-ω resistor?

jasenka [17]

In electricity, the most famous and basic equation is the Ohm's Law which relates the parameters voltage, current and resistance. One form of this law as written in equation is V = IR, where V is the voltage in volts, I is the current in amperes and R is the resistance in ohms. These parameters depends in the arrangements, whether it's series or parallel.

In a series connection, the voltage is greater across a high-resistance resistor. Therefore, the voltage is much greater for the 20-ohm resistor. However,if it is a parallel circuit, the voltage is just the same for both resistors.

If you stood on a planet with four times the mass of Earth, and twice Earth's radius, how much would you weigh?

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

1/4 times your earth's weight

Explanation:

assuming the Mass of earth = M

Radius of earth = R

∴ the mass of the planet= 4M

the radius of the planet = 4R

gravitational force of earth is given as = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

where G is the gravitational constant

Gravitational force of the planet = $\frac{G4M}{(4R)^{2} }$

= $\frac{G4M}{16R^{2} }$

= $\frac{GM}{4R^{2} }$

recall, gravitational force of earth is given as = $\frac{GM}{R^{2} }$

∴Gravitational force of planet = 1/4 times the gravitational force of the earth

you would weigh 1/4 times your earth's weight

Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by _______ objects that travel in straight paths. *

Gelneren [198K]

Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.
