17. (a) what is the terminal voltage of a large 1.54-v carbon-zinc dry cell used in a physics lab to supply 2.00 a to a circuit, if the cell’s internal resistance is 0.100 ω? (b) how much electrical power does the cell produce? (c) what power goes to its load?

a) 1.34 Volts

b) 3.08 W

c) 2.68 W

Explanation:

Given:

Emf of the cell, E = 1.54 V

current, i = 2.0 A

internal resistance, r = 0.100Ω

(a) Terminal voltage (V) = E - v

where,

v is the potential difference across the resistance 'r'

now,

according to the Ohm's Law, we have

v = i × r  

substituting the values in the above equation we get

v = 2.0 × 0.100 = 0.2 Volts

thus,

Terminal voltage (V) = (1.54 - 0.2) = 1.34 V

(b) Now, the Total power (P) is given as

P = E × i = (1.54 × 2.0) = 3.08 W  

(c) Power into its load = [terminal voltage, v] * i  

= (1.34 × 2.0) = 2.68 W

well, you would divide 135 by 33 to get your answer. then that is how many seconds it would take. boardman should fly about 132 m or 4.090909090909091 seconds.
