A wire with resistance R is connected to the terminals of a 6.0 V battery. What is the potential difference between the ends of the wire and the current I through it if the wire has the following resistances?
a) 1.0Ω
b) 2.0Ω
c) 3.0Ω

Potential difference = 6.0 V

I for 1.0Ω = 6 A

I for 2.0Ω = 3 A

I for 3.0Ω = 2 A

Explanation:

Potential difference (ΔV) = Current (I) x Resistance (R)

The potential difference is constant and equals 6.0 V, hence;

I = ΔV/R

When R = 1.0, I =6/1 = 6 amperes

When R = 2.0, I = 6/2 = 3 amperes

When R = 3.0, I = 6/3 = 2 amperes

The potential difference is 6.0 V and the current is 6, 3, and 2 amperes for a resistance of 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0Ω respectively.

jupiter is the largest planet in our solar system, having a mass and radius that are respectively, 318 and 11.2 times that of earth. suppose that an object falls from rest near the surface of each planet and that the acceleration due to gravity remains constant during the fall. each object falls the same distance before striking the ground. determine the ratio of the time of fall on jupiter to that on earth.
