Explanation:

Here is the complete question

An external resistor with resistance R is connected to a battery that has emf ε and internal resistance r. Let P be the electrical power output of the source. By conservation of energy, P is equal to the power consumed by R. What is the value of P in the limit that R is (a) very small; (b) very large? (c) Show that the power output of the battery is a maximum when R = r . What is this maximum P in terms of ε and r? (d) A battery has ε= 64.0 V and r=4.00Ω. What is the power output of this battery when it is connected to a resistor R, for R=2.00Ω, R=4.00Ω, and R=6.00Ω? Are your results consistent with the general result that you derived in part (b)?

Solution

The power P consumed by external resistor R is P = I²R since current, I = ε/(R + r), and ε = e.m.f and r = internal resistance

P = ε²R/(R + r)²

a. when R is very small , R = 0 and P = ε²R/(R + r)² = ε² × 0/(0 + r)² = 0/r² = 0

b. When R is large, R >> r and R + r ⇒ R.

So, P = ε²R/(R + r)² = ε²R/R² = ε²/R

c. For maximum output, we differentiate P with respect to R

So dP/dR = d[ε²R/(R + r)²]/dr = -2ε²R/(R + r)³ + ε²/(R + r)². We then equate the expression to zero

dP/dR = 0

-2ε²R/(R + r)³ + ε²/(R + r)² = 0

-2ε²R/(R + r)³ =  -ε²/(R + r)²

cancelling out the common variables

2R =  R + r

2R - R = R = r

So for maximum power, R = r

So when R = r, P = ε²R/(R + r)² = ε²r/(r + r)² = ε²r/(2r)² = ε²/4r

d. ε = 64.0 V, r = 4.00 Ω

when R = 2.00 Ω, P = ε²R/(R + r)² = 64² × 2/(2 + 4)² = 227.56 W

when R = 4.00 Ω, P = ε²R/(R + r)² = 64² × 4/(4 + 4)² = 256 W

when R = 6.00 Ω, P = ε²R/(R + r)² = 64² × 6/(6 + 4)² = 245.76 W

The results are consistent with the results in part b

i think the answer is a, hope this is right, that would be my best guess.

russian is not my first language, so i'm afraid i can't write out an answer in russian, but hopefully you can find a way to do so. here's my best translation of the problem: you're given a plot of a particle's position in one-dimensional space over time, and you're asked to find either the total distance traveled by the particle after 6 seconds had elapsed, or the total displacement of the particle after 6 seconds.

if you want the total distance traveled, you would first need to determine the particle's velocity as a function of time, then integrate that over the 6-second interval. we know the position function is quadratic with roots at 0 and 6, so we have

where is unknown. because the position is parabolic, there is symmetry about the midpoint at , and we know that

so that the position function is

which means the velocity is

then the total distance traveled is

so the total distance traveled is 20 m.

on the other hand, if you want to find displacement: the particle starts at and ends at , so its displacement is 0.
