Chapter 22, Problem 29P

Figure P22.29 shows the current-versus-potential-difference graph for a resistor.

Figure P22.29

Chapter 22, Problem 29P, Figure P22.29 shows the current-versus-potential-difference graph for a resistor. Figure P22.29 a.

a. What is the resistance of this resistor?

b. Suppose the length of the resistor is doubled while keeping its cross section the same. (This requires doubling the amount of material the resistor is made of.) Copy the figure and add to it the current-versus-potential-difference graph for the longer resistor.

Show that the units 1 v2/Q = 1 W, as implied by the equation P = V²/R. Starting with the equation P = V²/R, we can get an expression for a watt in terms of voltage and resistance. The units for voltage, V, are equivalent to [? v2 v2 A, are equivalent to J/C ✓ X . Therefore, 1 = 1 = 1 A V1 J/s Ω V-A X = 1 W. . The units for resistance, Q, are equivalent to ? The units for current,
