The current flowing in each resistor of the circuit is 4 A.

<h3>Equivalent resistance of the series resistors</h3>

The equivalent resistance of the series circuit is calculated as follows;

6 Ω and 4 Ω are in series = 10 Ω

5 Ω and 10Ω are in series = 15 Ω

<h3>Effective resistance of the circuit</h3>

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} \\\\R = \frac{R_1R_2}{R_1 + R_2} \\\\R = \frac{10 \times 15}{10 + 15} \\\\R = 6 \ ohms

<h3>Current flowing in the circuit</h3>

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 24/6

I = 4 A

A 0.3-kg object connected to a light spring with a force constant of 19.3 N/m oscillates on a frictionless horizontal surface. A
Ghella [55]

The total work <em>W</em> done by the spring on the object as it pushes the object from 6 cm from equilibrium to 1.9 cm from equilibrium is

<em>W</em> = 1/2 (19.3 N/m) ((0.060 m)² - (0.019 m)²) ≈ 0.031 J

That is,

• the spring would perform 1/2 (19.3 N/m) (0.060 m)² ≈ 0.035 J by pushing the object from the 6 cm position to the equilibrium point

• the spring would perform 1/2 (19.3 N/m) (0.019 m)² ≈ 0.0035 J by pushing the object from the 1.9 cm position to equilbrium

so the work done in pushing the object from the 6 cm position to the 1.9 cm position is the difference between these.

By the work-energy theorem,

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em> = <em>K</em>

where <em>K</em> is the kinetic energy of the object at the 1.9 cm position. Initial kinetic energy is zero because the object starts at rest. So

<em>W</em> = 1/2 <em>mv</em> ²

where <em>m</em> is the mass of the object and <em>v</em> is the speed you want to find. Solving for <em>v</em>, you get

<em>v</em> = √(2<em>W</em>/<em>m</em>) ≈ 0.46 m/s

An 1100kg car reached 30m/s in 9s from rest. What force did the engine provide?
malfutka [58]

Answer:

≅3666.67 N

Explanation:

Use Newton's 2nd law, F = ma where F=force applied, m = mass of the object,

a = acceleration acquired by the object.

a= (v-u)/t where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity and t = time taken

calculate a = (30-0)/9 ≅ 3.33 m/s2

Then F = 1100×a = 3666.67 N

Consider a household that uses 14,000 kWh of electricity and 900 gal of fuel oil, per year, during a heating season. The average
MissTica

Answer:

reduction in the amount of CO₂ emissions by that household per year is 9517.2 lbm per year

Explanation:

given data

electricity consume = 14000 kWh

fuel consume = 900 gal

CO₂ produced of fuel = 26.4 lbm/gal

CO₂ produced of electricity  = 1.54 lbm/kWh

oil and electricity usage = 21 percent

to find out

the reduction in the amount of CO₂ emissions

solution

we calculate the amount of CO₂ produce here that is

amount of CO₂ produce = ( electricity consume×CO₂ produce electricity + fuel consume × CO₂ consume fuel )    ........................1

put here value

amount of CO₂ produce = ( 14000 × 1.54 + 900 × 26.4 )  

amount of CO₂ produce = 45320 lbm/yr

we know reduction is 21%

so

reduction in amount of CO₂ produced is

reduction in CO₂ produced = 45320 × 21%

reduction in CO₂ produced = 9517.2 lbm per year

so reduction in the amount of CO₂ emissions by that household per year is 9517.2 lbm per year

When the mass of an object decreases, the force of gravity
Viktor [21]
Hello There!

From what i know, gravitational force increases if the mass is increased.
If the mass is being decreased, then i assume it will be B. Decreases.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
