Explanation:
The total resistance Rt is given by
1/Rt = 1/Ra + 1/Rb + 1/Rc = 1/5 + 1/4 + 1/7 = 0.593
or Rt = 1.69 ohms
The total current I running through the circuit is
I = V/Rt = 2.37 A
The energy changes involved when a positive charge moves because of a nearby, negatively charged object because that is actually similar to when an object falls in a gravitational field, the potential energy of the object will turn in to a kinetic energy. thank you for this question.
Consider 20 deg.C. as room temperature.
From tables,
Silver has a resistivity of 1.6*10^-8 ohm-m at 20 deg.C, and it increases by 0.0038 ohm-m per deg.K increase.
Therefore if the temperature rise above 20 deg.C is T, then silver will have resistivity of
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) ohm-m
At room temperature, the resistivity of tungsten (from tables) is 5.6*10^-8.
The resistivity of silver will be 4 times that of tungsten (at room temperature) when
1.6*10^-8(1 + 0.0038T) = 4*5.6*10^-8
1 + 0.0038T = 14
T = 13/.0038 = 3421 deg.K approx
Answer: 20 + 3421 = 3441 °C
Are there any options??
I would have to say metal of course but without options I can't assume anything
