Question

Четыре лампы мощностью по 25 Вт, включенные последовательно в сеть с напряжением 36 В горят нормальным накалом. Последовательно с лампами включен реостат. при каком сопротивлении реостата потребляемая мощность уменьшится в двое?

Answer 1

Общая мощность Р = Р(1) + Р(2) + Р(3) + Р(4) = 25 + 25 +25 + 25 =100 ВтТок в цепи I = P/U = 100/36 = 2,78 А Общее сопротивление лампR = R(1) + R(2) + R(3) + R(4) = U/I = 36/2,78 = 12,95 ОмСопротивление одной лампыR(1) =R(2)=R(3)R(4) = R/4 = 3,24 ОмДля цепи с реостатомP/2 = U^2/(r + R)  r = 2*U^2/P -R = 2*36^2/100 - 12,95 = 12, 97 Ом Вообще-то r = R, разность появляется из-за округления при расчете тока

Answer 2

Calculation of the Resistance of the Resistor

To determine the resistance of the resistor at which the power consumed by the lamps will be halved, we need to consider the power equation in a circuit. The power consumed by a device can be calculated using the formula:

P = V^2 / R

Where: - P is the power consumed (in watts) - V is the voltage across the device (in volts) - R is the resistance of the device (in ohms)

In this case, the power consumed by the lamps is given as 25 watts each, and they are connected in series with a total voltage of 36 volts. Therefore, the total resistance of the lamps can be calculated as follows:

P_total = P1 + P2 + P3 + P4 = 25 + 25 + 25 + 25 = 100 watts

R_total = V^2 / P_total = 36^2 / 100 = 12.96 ohms

Halving the Power Consumption

To halve the power consumption, we need to find the resistance at which the power consumed will be half of the original power. Let's denote this resistance as R_new.

Using the power equation, we can set up the following equation:

P_new = V^2 / R_new = (1/2) * P_total = 1/2 * 100 = 50 watts

Solving for R_new, we have:

R_new = V^2 / P_new = 36^2 / 50 = 25.92 ohms

Therefore, the resistance of the resistor at which the power consumed by the lamps will be halved is approximately 25.92 ohms.
