| C:/Users/tylrg/Downloads/Hw-7-Electric-circuits-II.pdf The diagram below shows a small water heater that uses electrical energy to heat water. The heating element is a small resistor labeled R1oad = 5.0 N immersed in the water. A 20 V ideal emf device supplies current and there is an adjustable resistor Ra in series. The value of the adjustable resistance can be changed to be anywhere between 1.0 - 3.0 N. The adjustable resistor is initially set to 2.0 Q and the switch is closed. (a) What is the voltage drop across the heating element? (b) How much energy is supplied by the source if the water heater runs for 10 minutes? (c) What fraction of this energy is actually used to heat the water? Please express your answer as a percentage, using only two significant figures. (d) Suppose the heating element degrades and corrodes and its resistivity slowly increases as the equip- ment becomes older. • Does the voltage drop across the heating element increase, decrease or remain the same as the…
For a parallel circuit, the power storage voltage is 6 V. The nominal resistance for R1 and R2 is 150 ohms and 220 ohms, respectively. If 1/Rt = R2 +R2/R1*R2, then Rt R1*R2/R2+R1 =1 From the attached, so as to understand conceptually, can you explain and describe from the nominal resistance for R1 and R2 given, the general nature of a parallel circuit in terms of the columns given specified in the variables and the relationship, such a V to V1 and V2; I to I1 and I2, then I1 +I2?
