A ball thrown by a boy from the roof top is what motion?

When the boy is holding the ball it has Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE).When he lets go the Gravitational Potential Energy is converted to Kinetic Energy.As the ball is falling it continues to gain Kinetic Energy, however, the friction from the air on the ball increases (Air Resistance).When the Kinetic Energy and Air Resistance become equal the ball is said to have to reached Terminal Velocity.Once the ball hits the ground the Kinetic Energy is transferred to the ground through heat (Friction) and also as sound.Remember energy cannot be created or destroyed, it is always transferred.


Three equal resistors connected in series across a voltage source dissipate a power of 10W what sould be the power desipated if same resistors are connected in parallel?

If the voltage and resistance values remain the same the power dissipated will be 90 W.


Why is there no flow of electric current between 2 objects of equal resistance?

I am not sure how the two objects of equal resistance are supposed to be connected. But for a current to flow, for example across a resistor, there must be a voltage difference between the terminals of this resistor.


What is the opposition to the flow of electrons is called?

Resistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistanceResistance, or electrical resistance

What will happen when source resistance equals load restiance?

when source resistance and load resistance are equal maximum power is transfered


What will happen in case of AC circuit for maximum power transfer theorem?

According to maximum power transfer theorem for ac circuits maximum power is transferred from source to load when the load resistance is equal to the magnitude of source impedance. The source imoedance is the thevenin equivalent impedance across the load


Does the maximum power transfer condition states maximum efficiency condition?

Answer Pmax=E^2/(4xRs) The maximum power is transferred when the load impedance is the complex conjugate of the source impedance. For a dc circuit or a purely resistive circuit, the load resistance equals the source resistance.


How can convert voltage source into current source?

Take the internal series resistance of the voltage source and make it the internal parallel resistance of the current source. Then compute using Ohm's law the current of the current source to be equal to the maximum current the original voltage source could supply a short circuit load. Note: the two sources are equivalent.


What are the advantages and disadvantages of maximum power transfer theorem?

The Maximum Power Transfer Theorem is not so much a means of analysis as it is an aid to system design. The maximum amount of power will be dissipated by a load resistance when that load resistance is equal to the Thevenin/Norton resistance of the network supplying the power.

Why internal resistance of an ideal voltage source is zero and an ideal current source is infinty?

Current source means current generator for a circuit. An ideal current source gives all current to the circuit, but practically a current source does n't give all current to the circuit, instead, a source resistor is connected in parallel to the current source to indicate the current drop.

It's called terminal velocity! :)


What is the condition for maximum transfer theorem?

For maximum power transfer the load resistance should be equal to the source resistance.An often misunderstood theorem. It applies strictly where one wishes maximum power transfer.It was misused for example in early power systems by trying to match the generator resistance to the load resistance.And it has little application in audio systems, where Power is much less important than Distortion. [for least distortion, the output impedance of the amplifier should be less than 10% of the impedance of the load.]


A battery of emf 2V is connected to an external resistance which is equal to its internal resistance and then find potential difference across the external resistance?

As the source impedance is equal to load impedance, it is assumed that both the resistances are in series. This distributes the whole voltage equally between both the impedance. Hence the PD across external resistance will be 1V.
