When a 20-V emf is placed across two resistors in series, a current of 2.0 A is present in each of the resistors. When the same

ehidna [41]

Answer:

7.24 ohm

Explanation:

Let R1 and R2 are resistance of two resistors.

Emf=E=20 V

Current,I=2 A

Current,I'=10 A

We have to find the magnitude of the greater of the two resistances.

In series

$R=R_1+R_2$

$V=IR$

By using the formula

$20=2(R_1+R_2)$

$R_1+R_2=\frac{20}{2}=10$ ...(1)

In parallel

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}$

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{R_2+R_1}{R_1R_2}$

$R=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}$

$20=10(\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}$

$2=\frac{R_1R_2}{10}$

$R_1R_2=20$

$R_2=\frac{20}{R_1}$

Substitute the value

$\frac{20}{R_1}+R_1=10$

$R^2_1+20=10R_1$

$R^2_1-10R_1+20=0$

$R_1=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{(-10)^2-4(20)}}{2}$

By using quadratic formula

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$R_1=\frac{10\pm 2\sqrt 5}{2}$

$R_1=\frac{10+2\sqrt 5}{2}=5+\sqrt 5=7.24 ohm$

$R_1=\frac{10-2\sqrt 5}{2}=2.76 ohm$

Substitute the value

$R_2=\frac{20}{7.24}=2.76 ohm$

$R_2=\frac{20}{2.76}=7.24 ohm$

Hence, the magnitude of the greater of the two resistance=7.24 ohm

Two point charges of +2.50 x 10^-5 C and -2.50 x 10^-5 C are separated by 0.50m. Which of the following describes the force betw

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Q1 = +2.50 x 10^-5C and Q2 = -2.50 x 10^-5C, r = 0.50m, F=?

Using Coulomb's law:

F = 1/(4πE) x Q1 x Q2/ r^2

Where

k= 1/(4πE) = 9 x 10^9Nm2/C2

Therefore,

F = 9x 10^9 x 2.50 x 10^-5 x2.50 x

10^-5/. ( 0.5)^2

F= 5.625/ 0.25

F= 22.5N approximately

F= 23N.

To find the direction of the force: since Q1 is positive and Q2 is negative, the force along Q1 and Q2 is force of attraction.

Hence To = 23N, attractive. C ans.

Thanks.

A 9-μC positive point charge is located at the origin and a 6 μC positive point charge is located at x = 0.00 m, y = 1.0 m. Find

sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).

Explanation:

Given that,

First charge $q_{1}=9\times10^{-6}\ C$ at origin

Second charge $q_{2}=6\times10^{-6}\ C$

Second charge at point P = (0,1)

We assume that,

The net electric field between the charges is zero at mid point.

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

$0=\dfrac{k\times9\times10^{-6}}{d^2}+\dfrac{k\times6\times10^{-6}}{(1-d)^2}$

$\dfrac{(1-d)}{d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{6}{9}}$

$\dfrac{1}{d}=\dfrac{\sqrt{6}}{3}+1$

$\dfrac{1}{d}=1.82$

$d=\dfrac{1}{1.82}$

$d=0.55\ m$

Hence, The coordinates of the point is (0,0.55).
