I didnt get you...do u have any full as level phy revision
Do you mean part d (i) and (ii) ?I didnt get you...
both.Do you mean part d (i) and (ii) ?
ME TOOOO, and our physics teacher sucks, so Im harldy prepared for physics, working hard!revision notes for as level physics sorry but im totally worried about phy since i have bio also
fluctuationAnother question, if I may ask: In a graph what shows the random nature of a radioactive particle?, the fluctuation or its decreasing gradient??
Well for d (i) Since P =V^2/Rboth.
okay, the second part makes sense, but for the first part if, R=0, wont P be undefined(you cannot have a denominator as 0)?Well for d (i) Since P =V^2/R
and R = 0 therefore, P =0
as for d (ii) if the resistance is infinite then P =V^2/ infinity
and the answer of anything divided by infinity is zero. Hence the power will still be 0.
No it's going to be zero because any number divided by zero would be zero.okay
okay, the second part makes sense, but for the first part if, R=0, wont P be undefined(you cannot have a denominator as 0)?
'Any number divided by zero is NOT zero, its UNDEFINED, at least thats what i knew!' , the second way, was actually my first basis of reasoning when solving, and I couldn't agree more, but dusn't this statement contradict the first answer!No it's going to be zero because any number divided by zero would be zero.
and if that doesn't make sense then look at it this way, if the variable resistor's resistance is 0 then no voltage will be able to pass through it, hence the Power will be zero since no work is done.
For almost 10 years, the site XtremePapers has been trying very hard to serve its users.
However, we are now struggling to cover its operational costs due to unforeseen circumstances. If we helped you in any way, kindly contribute and be the part of this effort. No act of kindness, no matter how small, is ever wasted.
