The equivalent resistance of two resistors connected in series is always greater than the equivalent resistance of the same two

resistors connected in parallel. True False
Physics
1 answer:
seraphim [82]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Because the resistors in series is the sum of the two resistors given as

R= R1+R2

While that of resistors in parallel is the sum of the reciprocal of the resistance given as

1/R = 1/ R1+ 1/R2

So that of series connection will be greater

<h3><u><em>Answer:</em></u></h3><h3><u><em>Ok, here we go...</em></u></h3><h3><u><em>Explanation:</em></u></h3><h3><u><em>Astronauts perform many tasks as they orbit Earth. The space station is designed to be a permanent orbiting research facility. Its major purpose is to perform world-class science and research that only a microgravity environment can provide. The station crew spends their day working on science experiments that require their input, as well as monitoring those that are controlled from the ground. They also take part in medical experiments to determine how well their bodies are adjusting to living in microgravity for long periods of time.</em></u></h3><h3><u><em></em></u></h3><h3><u><em>Working on the space station also means ensuring the maintenance and health of the orbiting platform. Crew members are constantly checking support systems and cleaning filters, updating computer equipment: doing many of the things homeowners must do to ensure their largest investment stays in good shape. Similarly, the Mission Control Center constantly monitors the space station and sends messages each day through voice or email with new instructions or plans to assist the crew members in their daily routines.</em></u></h3><h3><u><em></em></u></h3>

Two hockey pucks, labeled A and B, are initially at rest on a smooth ice surface and are separated by a distance of 18.0 m . Sim
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

The distance covered by puck A before collision is  z = 8.56 \ m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The label on the two hockey pucks is  A and  B

    The distance between the  two hockey pucks is D   18.0 m

     The speed of puck A is  v_A =  3.90 \ m/s

        The speed of puck B is  v_B  =  4.30 \ m/s

The distance covered by puck A is mathematically represented as

     z =  v_A * t

  =>  t  =  \frac{z}{v_A}

 The distance covered by puck B  is  mathematically represented as

      18 - z =  v_B  * t

=>   t  = \frac{18 - z}{v_B}

Since the time take before collision is the same

        \frac{18 - z}{V_B}  =  \frac{z}{v_A}

substituting values

          \frac{18 -z }{4.3}  = \frac{z}{3.90}

=>      70.2 - 3.90 z   = 4.3 z

=>       z = 8.56 \ m

Algorithm to determine number of shortest paths between two nodes
Lunna [17]
Search Results<span>Use BFS to determine the length of the shortest v-w-path. Then use DFS to find thenumber of the v-w-shortest paths such that two nodes are connected and the length of path equals to the output of BFS. But the running time of this plan is O(m+n)+O(m+n). Also I've tried to modify the Dijkstra algorithm.</span>

In fission processes, which of the following statements is true? The total number of protons and the total number of neutrons bo
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer: A. The total number of protons and the total number of neutrons both remain the same.

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is the process in which a large nucleus splits into two smaller nuclei with the release of energy. In other words, fission is the process in which a nucleus is divided into two or more fragments, and neutrons and energy are released.

How much work is done when a force of 15.0 newtons is used to lift a box 3.0 meters into the air?
denis-greek [22]

Added potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

or

Added potential energy = (weight) x (added height)

If you need to lift a 15N box 3m straight up, you have to increase its potential energy by (15 N) x (3 m) = 45 Joules .

Where is that added potential energy supposed to come from ?  You could use an electric winch, a steam engine, a gasoline-powered motor, thousands of hamsters running on little treadmills that are are connected to the main pulley somehow, or your own arm muscles.  But howEVER you do it, you have to provide <em>45 Joules</em> of WORK in order to increase the potential energy of the box by just that much.
