Select the correct answer.
The formula for the voltage, V, of an electrical current is V=√pr, where P is the power measured in watts and R is the resistance measured in ohms.

A toy train with a resistance of 10 ohms is powered by four 1.5-volt batteries. What is the power of the toy train?
( ALL I KNOW IS THAT ITS NOT B )
A.
16.7 watts
B.
0.60 watts
C.
0.225 watts
D.
3.6 watts

Respuesta :

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

V = [tex]\sqrt{pr}[/tex] ← substitute V = 4 × 1.5 = 6 and r = 10

6 = [tex]\sqrt{10p}[/tex] ( square both sides )

6² = 10p

36 = 10p ( divide both sides by 10 )

3.6 = p

A toy train with a resistance of 10 ohms is powered by four 1.5-volt batteries then the power of the toy train would be 0.225 watts, therefore the correct option is C.

What is power?

The rate of doing work is known as power. The Si unit of power is the watt.

Power =work/time

The mathematical expression for the electric power is as follows

P = VI  

As we know from Ohm's law V=IR

By substituting the value of current I= V/R

P= V²/R

where P is the power

V is the voltage

I is current passing through the circuit

The formula for the voltage, V, of an electrical current is V=√pr, where P is the power measured in watts and R is the resistance measured in ohm

As given in the problem a toy train with a resistance of 10 ohms is powered by four 1.5-volt batteries the power of the toy train can be calculated with the help of the above-mentioned formula of the power

P= V²/R

P= (1.25²)/10

P= 0.225 watts

Thus the power of the toy train comes out to be 0.225 watts, therefore the correct answer is option C.
