Answer:

C 3.33 Ω

Explanation:

From the equation given 1 / Rtot = 1/10 + 1/5 = 3/10

then Rtot = 10/3 = 3.33 Ω

As an aside:

When there are only two resistors in parallel, the equivalent R is

= R1*R2 / (R1 + R2) = 10*5 / (10+5) = 50 / 15 = 3.33 Ω

A uniform marble rolls down a symmetrical bowl, start- ing from rest at the top of the left side. The top of each side is a dist

Paha777 [63]

Answer:

Part a)

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation the total energy at the bottom of the bowl is given as

$\frac{1}{2} mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = mgh$

here we know that on the left side the ball is rolling due to which it is having rotational and transnational both kinetic energy

now on the right side of the bowl there is no friction

so its rotational kinetic energy will not change and remains the same

so it will have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh'$

now we know that

$I = \frac{2}{5}mr^2$

$\omega = \frac{v}{r}$

so we have

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}(\frac{2}{5}mr^2)(\frac{v}{r})^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{5}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{7}{10}mv^2 = mgh$

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{10}{14}mgh$

so the height on the smooth side is given as

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

Part b)

if both sides are rough then it will reach the same height on the other side because the energy is being conserved.

Part c)

Since marble will go to same height when it is rough while when it is smooth then it will go to the height

$h' = \frac{10}{14} h$

so on smooth it will go to lower height

Vinvika [58]

Explanation:

If the center of the load is directly above the vertebrae, there is no torque in the system. This is a good thing so that the vertebrae are not put out of alignment over time. (Of course, this still doesn't prevent compression of the vertebrae over time, which is a possibility.)

What happens to the iron in the coilgun if the electricity in the coil was turned on

Andrews [41]

<em><u>The piece of iron has become a magnet. Some substances can be magnetized by an electric current. When electricity runs through a coil of wire, it produces a magnetic field. The field around the coil will disappear, however, as soon as the electric current is turned off.</u></em>
