The circuit is in parallel connection

Equivalent resistance = 1/Req = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

From the information given,

R1 = 5

R2 = 2

R3 = 4

1/Req = 1/5 + 1/2 + 1/4 = (4 + 10 + 5)/20 = 19/20

Req = 20/19 = 1.053 ohms

I = V/R

Given that V = 12,

Current flow through circuit = 12/1.053 = 11.4 A

I1 + I2 + I3 = 11.4

I1 = 12/5 = 2.4 A

I2 = 12/2 = 6 A

I3 = 12/4 = 3A

What is the largest possible displacement resulting from two displacements with magnitudes 3m and 4m? what is the smallest possi
Julli [10]

The largest possible displacement you can get by combining the two of them is if they're both in the SAME direction. You walk 3 meters, stop for a breath, then walk another 4 meters in the same direction as the first one. The resultant is 7 meters.

The smallest possible resultant is 1 meter, if the two displacements are in OPPOSITE directions. This time, you walk 4 meters, stop for a breath, then you TURN AROUND and walk 3 meters back in the direction you came from. You end up 1 meter from where you started.

A 2200 kg SUV traveling at 23.9 m/s can be stopped in 0.16 s if it hits a concrete wall. Assume that a 60 kg person was in the c
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

8962.5 N

Explanation:

From fundamental kinematics equations, acceleration, a is given by a=\frac {v-u}{t} where v is final velocity, u is initial velocity and t is time

We also know that force is a product of mass and acceleration of an object and substituting a=\frac {v-u}{t}  in the formula F=ma we obtain

F=ma=m\frac {v-u}{t}  where m is the mass of the body

F=60\times\frac {0-23.9}{0.16}=-8962.5 N

Therefore, the force is 8962.5 N
