10. Electrical Power: Why do our electronic devices get hot? We know that electrons flow through a circuit to do useful work in the circuit.
Explain why do resistors/ resistive elements heat up in a circuit. *

Now, think on the electrons flowing through a conductor (we can think on the resistor as a simple conductor, like a piece of metal)

Inside the conductor, we have some "fixed" (they do not flow with the current) electrons, such that as the current flows in the conductor, the flowing electrons can interact with the fixed ones in the conductor. Then we can have collisions inside the conductor.

In those collisions, the flowing electrons leave energy in the conductor, and as we know, heat is a form of energy. Then when we have a lot of these collisions, the temperature of the conductor increases.

That is why electronic devices get hot.

Also, as the temperature of a conductor increases, the electrons inside of it start to move more, then the probability of an interaction with the flowing electrons increases.

half of a circle

explanation:

the arrow and the top of the circle is matching together. it is not a polygon because a polygon would always be the same shape. therefore, an half of a circle is called semicircle so you would find the radius of it.

in simple terms, the principle states that the buoyancy force on an object is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object, or the density of the fluid multiplied by the submerged volume times the gravitational acceleration, g. this is also known as upthrust.
