AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on calculating the power generated by an 8.00A current in a 115V circuit, given that 6.00A in a 220V circuit produces 1320W. The relationship between power, current, and voltage is emphasized, indicating that power varies jointly with voltage and current. Participants are encouraged to explore the calculations needed to derive the power output for the 8.00A scenario. The conversation highlights a need for assistance in understanding the power formula and its application in different circuit conditions. Ultimately, the goal is to find the power output for the specified current and voltage.

the electric power P generated by current varies jointly with the voltage drop V and the current I. If 6.00A of current in a 220v circuit generate 1320 W of power, how much power do 8.00A of current in a 115v circuit generate?

here what I got so far:

current v W power
6.00A 220v 1320 w
8.00A 115v ?

I am stuck! some help please

So you cannot see anyway of getting 1320W from 220V and 6A?

What have you tried?
 

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .
