Since the 2-watt jobber has to dissipate twice as much power as the smaller unit I would expect it to have double the surface area. So if they are the usual cylindrical striped resistors then the larger one could have either double the length or else 1.4 times the radius of the smaller one.

To avoid an accident, a driver steps on the brakes to stop a 1000-kg car traveling at 65km/h. if the braking distance is 35 m, h
IgorLugansk [536]
First, find the needed acceleration needed for the car to stop from its initial velocity given the distance. This is calculated through the equation,
                                             2ad = Vf² - Vi²
where a and d are acceleration and distance, respectively. Vf and Vi are final and initial velocities, respectively. Substituting the known values,
           2(a)(35 m) = (0 m/s)² - ((65 km/h) x (1000 m/ 1 km) x (1 hr / 3600 s))²
The value of acceleration is -4.66 m/s².
The force needed to stop the car is the product of the mass and the acceleration. The operations gives us an answer of -4,660 N. We take the positive value, 4,660 N.

A particle moves according to a law of motion s = f(t), t ≥ 0, where t is measured in seconds and s in feet. f(t) = 0.01t4 − 0.0
masya89 [10]
The distance (ft) traveled by the particle at time t (s) is
s(t) = 0.01 t⁴ - 0.02 t³

Part (a)
The velocity at time t is
v(t) = 0.04t³ - 0.06t²  ft/s

Part (b)
After 1 s, the velocity is
v(1) = 0.04 - 0.06 = - 0.02 ft/s

Part (c)
When the particle is at rest, the velocity is zero. The time when this happens is given by
0.04t³ - 0.06t² = 0
t²(0.04t - 0.06) = 0
The graph shown below presents a clear picture of the motion.

Answer:
t = 0 (smaller value) or t = 1.5 s (larger value)
