If we will connect the resistors 2ohms, 3ohms, 5ohms in series and the 10ohms resistance parallel then we get equivalent resistance of 5 ohms.

The equivalent circuit is,

R equivalent for the series connection is,

\begin{gathered} Req(S)=2+3+5=10ohms \\ Now,\text{ } \\ Req\text{ }for\text{ }10\text{ }ohms\text{ }and\text{ }10\text{ }ohms\text{ }is, \\ \frac{1}{Req}=\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{10}=\frac{2}{10}=\frac{1}{5} \\ So, \\ Req=5\text{ ohms} \end{gathered}

The equivalent resistance is 5 ohms.

So your friend is saying true.

Answer:

1) not so long (maybe an hour or two)

2) access to information through the internet will be most affected if my computer and mobile phone run out of battery power.

3) yes, one should prepare for power outage. This can be done by having a standby alternative source of power like the use of inverters that stores electrical energy in form of chemical energy, and small internal combustion engine powered electric generators.

4) solar panels can be used to draw power from incident sun rays, this power can be stored in an inverter for future use in case of a power outage.

5) energy from the sun is converted into direct current which is then supplied to an accumulator in the opposite direction to its flow of current. When the energy is needed, it can be used directly, or converted to an alternating current. This is achieved by connecting its terminal to the supply. Electric field is generated by flow of ions and electrons within the working chemical (e.g lithium).

g You shine orange laser light that has a wavelength of 600 nm through a narrow slit. The slit forms a diffraction pattern on a
zimovet [89]

Answer:

 λ = 3 10⁻⁷ m,   UV laser

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon is described by the expression

         a sin θ = m λ

let's use trigonometry

         tan θ = y / L

as in this phenomenon the angles are small

        tan θ = \frac{sin \ \theta}{cos \ \theta} = sin θ

        sin θ = y / L

we substitute

      a y / L = m  λ

let's apply this equation to the initial data

       a  0.04 / L = 1 600 10⁻⁹

       a / L = 1.5 10⁻⁵

now they tell us that we change the laser and we have y = 0.04 m for m = 2

      a 0.04 / L = 2  λ

       a / L = 50  λ

we solve the two expression is

         1.5 10⁻⁵ = 50  λ

          λ = 1.5 10⁻⁵ / 50

          λ = 3 10⁻⁷ m

    UV laser

Hello!

\large\boxed{KE = 50J}

Use the formula for kinetic energy:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Plug in the given mass and velocity:

KE = \frac{1}{2} (4)5^{2}

Simplify:

KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)\\\\KE = 50 J
