Explain Ohms Law

Ohms law establishes a relationship between resistance, voltage and current, saying that V/I = R. The traditional graph given for ohmic resistors is:An increasing line with gradient x starting at (0,0)

A boy with a mass of 50kg is sitting on a seesaw. He is sitting 2m from the pivot. He has a friend who weighs 40kg, how far away from the pivot must she sit to balance the seesaw? (gravitational accelleration (g) = 10m/s2)

This is a question relating to turning forces, known as moments. For the seesaw to be balanced the moment caused by the 50kg boy must be equal and opposite to the moment caused by the 40kg girl. ...

calaculate the resistance if two 3 ohm resitsors are placed in series and another 3 ohm was attached in parallel

total resistance for resistors in series is the addition of the resistances therefore the two 3 ohm resisters in series totals 6 ohms resistors in parallel follow the equation : 1/RT = 1/R...

What is the difference between velocity and speed?

Both the speed and the velocity show us how fast something is moving (the rate at which it changes its position). However, velocity is a vector quantity, which means it also gives us information about the...
