A fixed resistor, (R) is in parallel with a variable resistor; both are connected to a real battery (internal resistance is not

negligible). A) Originally the fixed and variable resistors have the same resistance. (b) As the resistance of the variable resistor is decreased, the rate at which energy is transferred to the fixed resistor

Answer:

decreases

Explanation:

Energy in a resistor= I²R

According to ohms law, V=IR

Inititally current through both the resistors is same. When resistance of variable resistor is decreased, current through it increases and less current flows through fixed resistor. Consequently energy dissipated in fixed resistor also decreases.

. A mass m is traveling at an initial speed of 25.0 m/s. It is brought to rest in a distance of 62.5 m by a net force of 15.0 N.
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

Explanation:

From the equations of motion;

s = 0.5(u+v)t

Making t thr subject of formula;

t = 2s/(u+v)

t = time taken

s = distance travelled during deceleration = 62.5 m

u = initial speed = 25 m/s

v = final velocity = 0

Substituting the given values;

t = (2×62.5)/(25+0)

t = 5

Since, t = 5 the acceleration during this period is;

acceleration a = ∆v/t = (v-u)/t

a = (25)/5

a = 5 m/s^2

Force F = mass × acceleration

F = ma

Making m the subject of formula;

m = F/a

net force F = 15.0N

Substituting the values

m = 15/5

m = 3 kg

The mass m is 3 kg

if an average cloud has a density of 0.5 g/m3 and has a volume of 1,000,000,000 m3,what is the weight of an average cloud
sveta [45]

If you have (1 x 10⁹) cubic meters of volume, and 1/2 gram of mass
in each cubic meter, then you have

          (1/2 x 10⁹) grams = (5 x 10⁸) grams = (5 x 10⁵) kilograms of mass . 

On Earth, that mass weighs  4,900,000 newtons .

                                            (about  1,102,300 pounds)

                                            (about  551 tons)
