  1. In order to achieve the desired resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with the 20 Ohms resistors.
  2. In order to get a 35 Ohms resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with two 20 Ohms resistors that are connected in parallel.

<h3>How to achieve the desired resistance under these circumstances?</h3>

In order to achieve the desired resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with the 20 Ohms resistors.

Mathematically, the total equivalence resistance of two resistors that are connected in parallel is given by:

1/Rt = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂

1/Rt = 1/50 + 1/50

1/Rt = 2/50

1/Rt = 1/25

Rt = 25 Ohms.

Next, we would connect this 25 Ohms resistor in series with the 20 Ohms resistor:

R₃ = 20 + Rt

R₃ = 20 + 25

R₃ = 45 Ohms.

<h3>Part B.</h3>

In order to get a 35 Ohms resistance under the given circumstances, we would connect two 50 Ohms resistors in parallel and then connect it in series with two 20 Ohms resistors that are connected in parallel.

1/Rt = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂

1/Rt = 1/50 + 1/50

1/Rt = 2/50

1/Rt = 1/25

Rt = 25 Ohms.

1/R't = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂

1/R't = 1/20 + 1/20

1/R't = 2/20

1/R't = 1/10

R't = 10 Ohms.

Next, we would connect the 25 Ohms resistor in series with the 10 Ohms resistor:

R₃ = 10 + Rt

R₃ = 10 + 25

R₃ = 35 Ohms.

A transformer is intended to decrease the value of the alternating current from 500 amperes to 25 amperes. The primary coil cont
EastWind [94]

Answer:

The number of turns in secondary coil is 4000

Explanation:

Given:

Current in primary coil I_{P} = 500 A

Current in secondary coil I_{S} = 25 A

Number of turns in primary coil N_{P} = 200

In case of transformer the relation between current and number of turns is given by,

     \frac{N_{S} }{N_{P}  } = \frac{I_{P} }{I_{S} }

For finding number of turns in secondary coil,

     N_{S} = \frac{I_{P} }{I_{S} }  N_{P}

     N_{S} = \frac{500}{25} \times 200

     N_{S} = 4000

Therefore, the number of turns in secondary coil is 4000

What Occurs at divergent boundaries and creates new seafloor
lisabon 2012 [21]
Most active divergent plate boundaries occur between oceanic plates and exist as mid-oceanic ridges. Divergent boundaries also form volcanic islands which occur when the plates move apart to produce gaps which molten lava rises to fill.

Two 0.40 kg soccer ball collide elastically in a head-on collision. The first ball starts at rest, and the second ball has a spe
yulyashka [42]

Explanation:

Mass of two soccer balls, m_1=m_2=0.4\ kg

Initial speed of first ball, u_1=0

Initial speed of second ball, u_2=3.5\ m/s

After the collision,

Final speed of the second ball, v_2=0

(a) The momentum remains conserved. Using the conservation of momentum to find it as :

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

v_1 is the final speed of the first ball

0.4\times 0+0.4\times 3.5=0.4v_1+0.4\times 0

0.4\times 3.5=0.4v_1

v_1=3.5\ m/s

(b) Let E_1 is the kinetic energy of the first ball before the collision. It is given by :

E_1=\dfrac{1}{2}mu_1^2

E_1=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.4\times 0

It is at rest, so, the kinetic energy of the first ball before the collision is 0.

(c) After the collision, the second ball comes to rest. So, the kinetic energy of the second ball after the collision is 0.

Hence, this is the required solution.
