  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.

Tanzania [10]
Initially, mg = kx. K = mg/x = 700/0.5x10^-3 = 1400000N/m. From second condition, applying work-energy theorem, potential enery- elastic potential energy = change in kinetic energy. Now change in kinetic energy is 0 since initial and final velocities are 0m/s. Therefore, potential energy = elastic potential energy. mgh = (1/2) * k* x^2. x^2 = 2(mg)h/k = 2 x 700 x 1.3/ 1400000. x = 0.036m. Hope it's clear.

zavuch27 [327]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of the peach pie, d = 9 inches

Radius of the pie, r = 4.5 inches

The tray is rotated such that the rim of the pie plate moves through a distance of 183 inches, d = 183 inches

Let \theta is the angular distance that the pie plate has moved through.

It is given by :

\theta=\dfrac{d}{r}

\theta=\dfrac{183}{4.5}  

\theta=40.66\ radian

Since, 1 radian = 57.29 degrees

\theta=2329.64\ degrees

Since, 1 radian = 0.159155 revolution

\theta=6.47124\ revolution

Hence, this is the required solution.

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

d. This statement is false. She and the Space Station share the same orbit and will stay together unless they are pushed apart.

Explanation:

In astronomy, orbit is simply a path of an object around another object in a space. That is, orbit is a path of a body that revolves around a gravitating center of mass. Examples of an orbit is are satellite around a planet, orbit around a center of galaxy, planet around the sun, and among others.

On the other hand, space station refers to a spacecraft that can support a group of human for long time in the orbit. Another names for space stations are orbital space station and orbital station.

Therefore, an astronaut goes on a space walk outside the Space Station shares the same orbit with the space station and they will stay together unless they are pushed apart.
