This is a Wheatstone bridge, and the ratio of R2 to R1 equals the ratio of Rx to R3. As a result, if R2 is increased, R3 should be reduced by a factor of two.

<h3>Explain Wheatstone bridge?</h3>

A Wheatstone bridge is a type of electrical circuit that is used to measure an unknown electrical resistance by balancing two legs of a bridge circuit, one of which contains the unknown component.

The Wheatstone bridge circuit can be used to compare an unknown resistance RX to others of known value, such as R1 and R2, which have constant values and R3 which can be variable.

If we connected a voltmeter, ammeter, or galvanometer between points C and D, and then changed resistor R3 until the meters read zero, the two arms would be balanced, and the value of RX (substituting R4) would be known as indicated.

Consider a current carrying a wire coming out of your computer screen towards you. Which statement below correctly describes the
Ugo [173]

Answer:

1. The magnetic field encircles the wire in a counterclockwise direction

Explanation:

When we have a current carrying wire perpendicular to the screen in which the current flows out of the screen then by the Maxwell's right-hand thumb rule we place the thumb of our right hand in the direction of the current and curl the remaining fingers around the wire, these curled fingers denote the direction of the magnetic field which is in the counter-clock wise direction.

Ever current carrying conductor produces a magnetic field around it.

An automobile rounds a curve of radius 50.0 m on a flat road.
bixtya [17]

Answer:

14m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Radius of the curve  = 50m

Centripetal acceleration  = 3.92m/s²

Unknown:

Speed needed to keep the car on the curve = ?

Solution:

The centripetal acceleration is the inwardly directly acceleration needed to keep a body along a curved path.

 It is given as;

      a = \frac{v^{2} }{r}  

a is the centripetal acceleration

v is the speed

r is the radius

  Now insert the parameters and find v;

         v²   = ar

        v² = 3.92 x 50  = 196

         v  = √196 = 14m/s

Michael Jordan, el célebre basquetbolista, ganó el torneo de clavadas de la NBA en 1988. Para lograr la hazaña saltó 1.35 metros
kozerog [31]

(a) 0.40 s

First of all, let's find the initial speed at which Jordan jumps from the ground.

The maximum height is h = 1.35 m. We can use the following equation:

v^2-u^2=2gh

where

v = 0 is the velocity at the maximum height

u is the initial velocity

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for u,

u=\sqrt{-2gh}=\sqrt{-2(-9.8)(1.35)}=5.14 m/s

The time needed to reach the maximum height can now be found by using the equation

v=u+gt

Solving for t,

t=\frac{v-u}{g}=\frac{0-5.14}{-9.8}=0.52s

Now we can find the velocity at which Jordan reaches a point 20 cm below the maximum height, so at a height of

h' = 1.35 - 0.20 = 1.15 m

Using again the equation

v'^2-u^2=2gh'

we find

v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(1.15)}=1.97 m/s

And the corresponding time is

t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{1.97-5.14}{-9.8}=0.32s

So the time to go from h' to h is

\Delta t = t-t'=0.52-0.32=0.20 s

And since we have also to take into account the fall down (after Jordan reached the maximum height), which is symmetrical, we have to multiply this time by 2 to get the total time of permanence in the highest 20 cm of motion:

\Delta t=2\cdot 0.20 = 0.40 s

(b) 0.08 s

This part is easier since we need to calculate only the velocity at a height of h' = 0.20 m:

v'^2-u^2=2gh'

v'=\sqrt{u^2+2gh}=\sqrt{5.14^2+2(-9.8)(0.20)}=4.74 m/s

And the corresponding time is

t'=\frac{v'-u}{g}=\frac{4.74-5.14}{-9.8}=0.04s

So this is the time needed to go from h=0 to h=20 cm; again, we have to take into account the motion downwards, so we have to multiply this by 2:

\Delta t = 2\cdot 0.04 =0.08 s

The burning of a log releases the logs chemical_energy into other forms of energy
saul85 [17]

Answer:

When we burn wood we are releasing solar energy, in the form of heat, that has been stored in the wood as chemical energy. The process of photosynthesis converted solar energy, water and carbon dioxide into oxygen and the organic molecules that form the wood, half the weight of which is carbon.
