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 thin, metallic spherical shell of radius 0.187 m has a total charge of 6.53×10−6 C placed on it. A point charge of 5.15×10−6 C
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: a) 112.88 * 10^3 N/C; b) The electric field point outward from the center of the sphere.

Explanation: In order to solve this problem we have to use the gaussian law so we use a gaussian surface at r=0.965 m and the electric flux is equal to Q inside/εo

E* 4*π*r^2= Q inside/εo

E= k*Q inside/r^2= 9*10^9*(6.53+5.15)μC/(0.965)^2=122.88 * 10 ^3 N/C

There are three long parallel wires arranged so that, in cross-section, they occupy the points of an equilateral triangle. Is th
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

Yes, there is such a way.

Explanation:

If currents flow in the same direction in two or more long parallel wires, there will be an attractive force between the wires. If the current flows in different directions, there will be a repulsive force between the wires. In this case, these three parallel wires, can be be made to carry current in the same direction, creating an attractive force between all three wires.

Note that it is not possible to have at the least one of them carry current in the opposite direction and still have an attractive current between them.

Marina86 [1]

The slope of a speed-time graph is the acceleration represented by the graph.

All other parts of this question refer to a lab experiment or exercise
where I was not present, but Zeesam16 was.  Therefore I have no data
with which to answer the rest of the question, and hope that Zeesam can
handle it.

A 50-gram sample of water is initially at a temperature of 22 °C. The sample is heated until the temperature is 32 °C The specif
forsale [732]

Answer:

500cal

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of water  = 50g

Initial temperature  = 22°C

Final temperature  = 32°C

Specific heat of water  = 1cal/g

Unknown:

Amount of heat absorbed by the water in calories  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

       H  = m c Ф

H is the amount of heat absorbed

m is the mass

c is the specific heat capacity

Ф is the temperature change

       H  = 50 x 1 x (32  - 22)  = 500cal
