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}

Assume the acceleration of the object is a(t) = −9.8 meters per second per second. (Neglect air resistance.) A baseball is throw
wel

Answer:8.1 m

Explanation:

Given

ball is launched from height of 3 m

initial velocity u=10 m/s

considering the ball is thrown vertically upward

Using v^2-u^2=2 as

where,

u=initial velocity

v=final Velocity

a=acceleration

s=distance

At maximum height final velocity will be zero

v^2-u^2=2 gs

0-10^2=2(-9.8)\cdot h

h=5.10 m

Therefore maximum height w.r.t ground is 3+5.10=8.10 m

Answer:

A. It makes astronauts weightless.

Explanation:

Gravity does not make astronauts feel weightless. Astronauts are weightless because they are orbiting at the same rate as their shuttle.

Although the force of gravity weakens as one moves away from the earth surface, it does not mean that this force is absent in orbit

  • Gravitational force has a constant acceleration value near the earth surface which is commonly known to be 9.8m/s².
  • It is a force of attraction tending to hold and bind bodies together so far they have mass.
  • This force keeps every thing from escaping space-ward from the earth surface.
