You measure the power delivered by a battery to be 5.83 W when it is connected in series with two equal resistors. How much power will the same battery deliver if the resistors are now connected in parallel across it

P = 23.32 W

Explanation:

In series  

equivalent Resistance

R(eq)=R+R=2R

In parallel equivalent resistance

R(eq) = R*R/(R+R) =R/2

since.

power

P=V² / R

in series

⇒V = √(P*R)

=√(5.83*2R )

=√(11.66R)

in parallel

P = V² / R(eq)

=(√(11.66R)²) / (R/2)

P=11.66 * R * 2/R

P = 23.32 W

answer: he got 23

explanation:

weight of the box is given as

here this is placed on the inclined of angle 42 degree

now this weight will have two components one is along the incline other is perpendicular to it

so here we need to apply a force parallel to incline opposite to its component of weight

so here the component of weight is given as

here we have

so it requires 75 n force to move it upwards
