<h2>a) Equivalent resistance is 143 Ω</h2><h2>b) Potential difference is 71.5 V</h2>

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in series, effective resistance is given by

                R_{eff}=R_1+R_2+R_3+......

Here

         R₁ = 21Ω

         R₂ = 58Ω

         R₃ = 64Ω

a)      R_{eff}=R_1+R_2+R_3\\\\R_{eff}=21+58+64\\\\R_{eff}=143\Omega

  Equivalent resistance is 143 Ω

b) We know

               Potential difference = Current x Resistance

               V = IR

               I = 0.5 A

               R = 143Ω

Substituting

               V = 0.5 x 143 = 71.5 V

Potential difference is 71.5 V

<span>A 67.0 kg crate is being raised by means of a rope. Its upward acceleration is 3.50 m/s2. What is the force exerted by the rope on the crate? 

</span>Newton's Second Law<span> of Motion states, “The force acting on an object is equal to the mass of that object times its acceleration.” We calculate as follows:
</span>
F = ma = 67.0 kg (3.50 m/s^2) = 234.5 J
