The formula specifying Ohm's law is which of the following?
V = IR
Ohm's law specifies the relationship between voltage (V), current (I), and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit: V = IR.
General current flow in a transistor is from __________ to __________.
collector, emitter
The transistor is the foundation of modern electronic devices. It is made entirely from semiconductor material (making it a solid state device) and can serve many different functions in a circuit including acting as a switch, amplifier, or current regulator. A transistor works by allowing a small amount of current applied at the base to control general current flow from collector to emitter through the transistor.
An amplifier is most similar in function to which of the following:
step-up transformer
An amplifier is a device that takes a small input signal and creates a larger output signal. This makes it most similar to a step-up transformer which takes a smaller input voltage and creates a larger output voltage.
In the heart, blood flows from the right __________ to the lungs then back to the heart via the left __________.
ventricle, atrium
The two largest veins in the body, the venae cavae, pass blood to the right ventricle which pumps the blood to the lungs through the pulmonary artery. Blood picks up oxygen in the lungs and returns it to the left atrium via the pulmonary vein.
Velocity and displacement are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. Velocity and displacement are which of the following?
vector quantities
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
Sam can do 50 ft. lb. of work in 2 minutes and 5 seconds. What would Sam have to do to increase his power output?
do the work in 2 minutes
Power is the rate of doing work or \(\frac{W}{t}\). To increase power, increase the work being done in the same amount of time or do the same amount of work in less time.
