The corresponding downward force on the top of a horizontal square is 375 lb.in

<h3>What is pressure?</h3>

The pressure is the amount of force applied per unit area. It is represented as

Pressure p = Force/Area

If the atmospheric pressure is 15 lb/in and  area 5 inches on each side is

A = 5² = 25  in²

The force applied is

15 lb/in = F /25 in²

F = 375 lb.in

Hence, the corresponding downward force on the top of a horizontal square is 375 lb.in

A circuit consists of a battery connected to three resistors (65 ω, 25ω, and 170ω) in parallel. the total current through the re
White raven [17]
A. To find the total emf of the battery, just remember that in a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same throughout the circuit. So you can get the total voltage of the circuit by using Ohm's Law. 

I= \frac{V}{R}

Where:
I = current (A)
V = Voltage (V) (emf)
R = Resitance (Ω)

Now you can derive the formula of Voltage by transposing the Resistance to the other side of the equation to isolate Voltage. The formula you will now use will be:
V = IR

However, you cannot solve this yet because the resistance you need is the total resistance in the circuit. To do this, you need to get the total resistance in this parallel circuit and the formula would be:

\frac{1}{R_{T}} =  \frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}+ \frac{1}{R_{3}}...+ \frac{1}{R_{n}}

You have three resistors with the following resistance:
65Ω, 25Ω and 170Ω
\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}+ \frac{1}{R_{3}}...+ \frac{1}{R_{n}}

\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{R_{65}}+ \frac{1}{R_{25}}+ \frac{1}{R_{170}}


\frac{1}{R_{T}} =0.0153+0.04+0.006+0.0059
\frac{1}{R_{T}} =0.0613

Get the reciprocal of both sides and divide:

R_{T} =  \frac{1}{0.0613} =16.32

The total resistance then is 16.32Ω

Now that you have the total resistance, you can solve for the total voltage:
V = IR
V = (1.8)(16.32)
V = 29.376V

The emf of the battery is 29.376V


B. To find the resistance in each resistor, just apply Ohm's law again. In a parallel circuit, the voltage is the same, but the current that runs through it is different for each resistor. Now just solve for the current of each using the same voltage.

Resistor 1: 65Ω
I= \frac{V}{R}
I= \frac{29.376}{65}
I= 0.45A

The current flowing through resistor 1 with a resistance of 65Ω is 0.45A.

Resistor 2: 25Ω
I= \frac{V}{R}
I= \frac{29.376}{25}
I= 1.18A
The current flowing through resistor 2 with a resistance of 25Ω is 1.18A.

Resistor 3: 170Ω
I= \frac{V}{R}
I= \frac{29.376}{170}
I= 0.17A

The current flowing through resistor 3 with a resistance of 170Ω is 0.17A.

If you add up all their current it confirms the given that the total current running through all of them is 1.8A.
