<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

Q12. How much force is applied on the body when 150 joule of work
ra1l [238]

Force = Work/distance

Force = 150/10

          =  15 Newtons

Force = 15 Newtons

Therefore, 15 newtons of force is applied to the body when 150 joules of work

is done in displacing the body through a distance of 10m in the  direction of the force.

If the mass of a material is 50 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
AlekseyPX
The density of the material would be 
25/6 grams per cm^3.
to obtain the result above this is what we do:
density is calculated as: (the mass of the given material or object) / volume of the material 
which leads us to 50grams /12cm^3
