It's

P=I^2 * R

P=V^2 / R

Both are derived from Ohm's Law (V=I*R) are are equivalent.

A generator produces 100 kilo watt of power at a potential difference of 10 kilo volt The power is transmitted through cables of total resistance 5 ohmHow much power is dissipated in the cables?

If the generator is delivering 100 KW of power and the Voltage is 10 KV, then it's supplying current atI = P/E = (100,000/10,000) = 10 Amperes.If 10A is flowing through cable with a total resistance of 5 ohms, the power dissipated by the cable isP = I2R = (10)2 x (5) = 500 watts.Nice problem !


Is it true that the closer an earthquake the greater the time difference between the arrival of P-waves and the arrival of S-waves?

Yes, that is correct. The time difference between the arrival of P-waves and S-waves increases as the earthquake epicenter gets closer to the seismograph. P-waves are faster, so they arrive first, followed by the slower S-waves.


How would the difference in arrival times of the P-waves and S-waves at station 4 compare with the difference in arrival times of these waves at station 3?

The arrival time difference between P-waves and S-waves at station 4 would be shorter than at station 3. This is because the further away a seismic station is from the earthquake epicenter, the shorter the time difference between the arrival of P-waves and S-waves. This is due to the faster travel speed of P-waves compared to S-waves.


Where is the epicenter of an earthquake if the arrival time difference between P and S waves is zero?

Your standing on it! P-waves travel faster than S-waves through the Earth. As such the further away a seismometer station is from the epicentre of an Earthquake, the larger the difference between arrival times will be. By the same logic this means that the closer you get to the epicentre, the smaller the difference in arrival time will be until your at the epicentre when the difference will be zero!


What is the difference between s and p wave?

As P-waves travel at a higher velocity than S-waves they arrive at a seismometer station before the S-waves. The difference between their arrival time can be used to calculate the distance from the seismometer station to the epicentre.
