ANSWERS

a) R = 5.404 Ω

b) IR2 = 1.068 A

c) IR3 = 0.667 A

d) PR4 = 5.703 W

e) PR5 = 1.647 W

f) VR6 = 2 V

g) VR7 = 6.663 V

EXPLANATION

a) To find the equivalent resistance of the circuit we have to see which ones are connected in parallel and which ones are in series.

First we have R2 and R5 in series, so we can find en equivalent resistance that we'll call RA. Also R3 and R6 are series, so that equivalent we'll call RB:

Series resistances have to be added:

R_A=R_2+R_5=4+7=11\OmegaR_B=R_3+R_6=5+3=8\Omega

Then, resistances RB, R4 and RA are parallel. The equivalence we'll call Rc, as shown in the circuit on the right:

R_c=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{R_B}+\frac{1}{R_4}+\frac{1}{R_A}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{11}}\approx2.404\Omega

Finally R7 and RC are series, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is:

R_{eq}=R_C+R_7=2.404+3=5.404\Omega

For the following points I'll do them together and separate the information requested in each point.

Voltage across R7 is requested. We can find it with the equivalent circuit B, but first we have to know the total current through the circuit. This is the total equivalent circuit:

The total current is:

I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{12}{5.404}\approx2.221A

We can see in circuit B that Rc and R7 are in series so the current through them is the same. Also, this current is the total current I of the circuit. Therefore we can find the voltage across R7:

V_{R7}=I\times R_7=2.221\times3=6.663V

We can also use this to find the voltage across RC, which will help us find the currents in each resistance:

V_{RC}=I\times R_C=2.221\times2.404\approx5.339V

Now, since RB, R4 and RA are connected in parallel, the voltage across all of them is the same - which is VRC. With this information we can find the currents trough each of these three resistances:

I_{R4}=\frac{V_{RC}}{R_4}=\frac{5.339}{5}=1.068AI_{RA}=\frac{V_{RC}}{R_A}=\frac{5.339}{11}=0.485AI_{RB}=\frac{V_{RC}}{R_B}=\frac{5.339}{8}=0.667A

Item d asks for the power in resistence R4 and item e the power used by R5, so now that we have the current in both of them we can find the power they use. Note that the current through R5 is the same as the current through RA, because RA is the equivalente of R5 and R2 in series:

P_{R5}=I^2_{RA}\times R_5=0.485^2\times7\approx1.647W

Power used by R4 is:

P_{R4}=I^2_{R4}\times R_4=1.068^2\times5=5.703W

We have the current through RB, which is the same as the current through R3 (item c) and R6 so we can find the voltage across R6 (item f):

V_{R6}=I_{RB}\times R_6=0.667\times3=2V

We also have the current through R2 (item b) because is the same as the current through RA:

I_{R2}=I_{RA}

Acceleration is always measured in meters per second squared. Why is acceleration not measured in meters per second like speed?
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration.

Explanation:

Because 'distance per second' is a velocity, not an acceleration. For example, at 1 m/s an object is travelling a distance of 1 metre every second. But a rate of acceleration is a steady increase in velocity. So at 1 m/s^2, an object's velocity is increasing by 1 m/s every second.

What is the acceleration of a proton moving with a speed of 6.5 m/s at right angles to a magnetic field of 1.5 T?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The acceleration of the proton is 9.353 x 10⁸ m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the proton, u =  6.5 m/s

magnetic field strength, B = 1.5 T

The force of the proton is given by;

F = ma = qvB(sin90°)

ma = qvB

where;

m is mass of the proton, = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

charge of the proton, q = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The acceleration of the proton is given by;

a = \frac{qvB}{m}\\\\a = \frac{(1.602*10^{-19})(6.5)(1.5)}{1.67*10^{-27}}\\\\a = 9.353*10^8 \ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the proton is 9.353 x 10⁸ m/s²

A man walks along a straight path at a speed of 4 ft/s. A searchlight is located on the ground 6 ft from the path and is kept fo
BARSIC [14]

We are given that,

\frac{dx}{dt} = 4ft/s

We need to find \frac{d\theta}{dt} when x=8ft

The equation that relates x and \theta can be written as,

\frac{x}{6} tan\theta

x = 6tan\theta

Differentiating each side with respect to t, we get,

\frac{dx}{dt} = \frac{dx}{d\theta} \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}

\frac{dx}{dt} = (6sec^2\theta)\cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt}

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6sec^2\theta} \cdot \frac{dx}{dt}

Replacing the value of the velocity

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{6} cos^2\theta (4)^2

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} cos^2\theta

The value of cos \theta could be found if we know the length of the beam. With this value the equation can be approximated to the relationship between the sides of the triangle that is being formed in order to obtain the numerical value. If this relation is known for the value of x = 6ft, the mathematical relation is obtained. I will add a numerical example (although the answer would end in the previous point) If the length of the beam was 10, then we would have to

cos\theta = \frac{6}{10}

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{8}{3} (\frac{6}{10})^2

\frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{24}{25}

Search light is rotating at a rate of 0.96rad/s

1. A baseball is thrown vertically at 16.7 m/s. What is the maimum height of the baseball?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

14.2 m

Explanation:

Using conservation of energy:

PE at top = KE at bottom

mgh = ½ mv²

h = v² / (2g)

h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 14.2 m

Using kinematics:

Given:

v₀ = 16.7 m/s

v = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: Δy

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy

Δy = 14.2 m

A Carnot engine's operating temperatures are 240 ∘C and 20 ∘C. The engine's power output is 910 W . Part A Calculate the rate of
scoray [572]

Answer:1200

Explanation:

Given data

Upper Temprature\left ( T_H\right )=240^{\circ}\approx 513

Lower Temprature \left ( T_L\right )=20^{\circ}\approx 293

Engine power ouput\left ( W\right )=910 W

Efficiency of carnot cycle is given by

\eta =1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}

\eta =\frac{W_s}{Q_s}

1-\frac{293}{513}=\frac{910}{Q_s}

Q_s=2121.954 W

Q_r=1211.954 W

rounding off to two significant figures

Q_r=1200 W
