(b). In addition, when a positive charge moves in an Outside of the resistor the resistance is zero (or at least
electric field it loses potential, rather than gaining it as constant, outside of the idealized situation). How does
you've specified. the drift speed of the current change on either side of
the resistor in this case?
Electric potential at point a is higher than electric
potential at point b, and as a result charges are
moving faster at point b.
Credit: 25
Feedback:
The resistance in the wire is zero (or constant), so the
speed of the current is the same at point (a) and point
(b).
Electric potential at point a is the same as electric
potential at point b, and as a result charges are
moving with the same speeds at those points.

Feedback:
A resistor causes a potential drop as charges cross it.
Electric potential at point a is lower that electric
potential at point b, and the charges are moving with
the same speeds at those points.

Feedback:
When a positive charge moves in an electric field it
loses potential, rather than gaining it.

Problem 38 - c26.6.1 :
Full solution not currently available at this time.
The voltage drop through resistors #1 and #2 is the same, but resistor #1 has two times greater
resistance than resistor #2.

Variable Name Min Max Step Sample Value

Part (a) The power dissipated in resistor #1 is:

Correct MultipleChoice: ½ the power dissipated in resistor #2.

Choice Info: Hints:

1 hints available
Twice the power dissipated in resistor #2.
Credit: 25 How is the power dissipation in a resistor dependent
Feedback: on the resistance?
Since the first has a larger resistance, it will dissipate
less power, not more.

The same as power the dissipated in resistor #2.

Credit: 25
Feedback:
Since the resistances are different, these resistors will
dissipate different amounts of power.
Four times the power dissipated in resistor #2.
Credit: 25
Feedback:
Since the first has a larger resistance, it will dissipate
less power, not more.
¼ the power dissipated in resistor #2.
Credit: 25
Feedback:
The power dissipated depends linearly on the resistance.
