What is the mathematical relationship between heat dissipation and applied voltage?

Heat dissipation = (applied voltage)2 / total effective resistance of the circuit


How do you use the word dissipation in a sentence?

Dissipation means to make go away...but it's not gone yet. It rather is like diluting, altering to make so weak that it's not usable as originally intended. "He spent his evening in wasteful alcoholic dissipation." "Her morning was casually moved into afternoon engaging in gourmandic dissipation." (Translation? "She stuffed her gut all morning") I have a good sentence for dissipated!! He dissipated his time doing drugs when he could be at the fair. Also it could mean wasteful expenditure so... "When the man dissipated his money on lottery tickets and lost, no one was surprised when he went into a rage."


What is the noun form of dissipate?

The noun forms of the verb to dissipate are dissipation, dissipator (or dissipater), and the gerund, dissipating.


Why an ammeter is likely to burn out if connected in parallel combination?

ameter has a low resistance so if it is placed in parallel with the load then it will experiance voltage as much as the load and according to equation power=v2/r the power will be very high as high v or low r both favors for a high power dissipation . but on a series combination most of the voltage drop will be on load the ameter will not have a high power dissipation


What type of energy transfer accounts for a change in the temperature of the tongs?

Dissipation - the heat energy that is transferred to the tongs is dissipated from the tongs to the surrounding area in order for the temperature of the whole system to be at an equilibrium.
