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 stationary 15 kg object is located in a table near the surface of the earth. The coefficient of static friction between the su

Marta_Voda [28]

The net force acting on the object perpendicular to the table is

∑ F[perp] = F[normal] - mg = 0

where mg is the weight of the object. Then

F[normal] = mg = (15 kg) (9.8 m/s²) = 147 N

The maximum magnitude of static friction is then

0.40 F[normal] = 58.8 N

which means the applied 40 N force is not enough to make the object start to move. So the object has zero acceleration and does not move.

if you push a small act with 7,000 N force and push a heavy truck with the same force, which one will have a greater acceleratio

inn [45]

Answer:

the small one will have greater acceleration

Explanation:

force and mass are inversely proportional. force and acceleration are directly proportional. which means greater mass have smaller acceleration and smaller mass has greater acceleration. this is due to newtons second law of motion.

A 0.290 cm diameter plastic sphere, used in a static electricity demonstration, has a uniformly distributed 30.0 pC charge on it

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Therefore,

The potential (in V) near its surface is 186.13 Volt.

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of sphere,

d= 0.29 cm

$radius=\dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{0.29}{2}=0.145\ cm$

$r = 0.145\ cm = 0.145\times 10^{-2}\ m$

Charge ,

$Q = 30.0\ pC=30\times 10^{-12}$

To Find:

Electric potential , V = ?

Solution:

Electric Potential at point surface is given as,

$V=\dfrac{1}{4\pi\epsilon_{0}}\times \dfrac{Q}{r}$

Where,

V= Electric potential,

ε0 = permeability free space = 8.85 × 10–12 F/m

Q = Charge

r = Radius

Substituting the values we get

$V=\dfrac{1}{4\times 3.14\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}}\times \dfrac{30\times 10^{-12}}{0.145\times 10^{-2}}$

$V=\dfrac{30}{16.117\times 10^{-2}}=186.13\ Volt$

Therefore,

The potential (in V) near its surface is 186.13 Volt.
