Correct answer: Option D. 30 V

The resistors are connect in series, because in parallel the potential drop across all resistors will have been the same and will be equal to the battery voltage i.e. 60 V.

First we need to find the equivalent resistance and the current passing through the circuit.

Since, resistors are in series, equivalent resistance will be the sum of all individual resistances. So,

Equivalent Resistance = 20 + 40 + 60 = 120 ohm
Current through the circuit = Voltage / Equivalent Resistance  = 60/120 = 0.5 ampere

The voltage drop across R3 =Resistance of R3 x Current 
= 60 x 0.5
= 30 V

Therefore, D option is the correct answer.

Alona [7]

Answer:

u = 10.63 m/s

h = 1.10 m

Explanation:

For Take-off speed ..

by using the standard range equation we have

R = u² sin2θ/g

R = 9.1 m

θ = 26º,

Initial velocity = u

solving for u

u² = \frac{Rg}{sin2\theta}

u^2 = \frac{9.1 x 9.80}{sin26}

u^2 = 113.17

u = 10.63 m/s

for Max height

using the standard h(max) equation ..

v^2 = (v_osin\theta)^2 -2gh

h =\frac{(v_o^2sin\theta)^2}{2g}

h  =  \frac{(113.17)(sin26)^2}{(2 x 9.80)}}

h = 1.10 m

ella [17]

The time interval that is between the first two instants when the element has a position of 0.175 is 0.0683.

<h3>How to solve for the time interval</h3>

We have y = 0.175

y(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.175

sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.175

sin (1.25x + 99.6t) = 0.5

99.62 = pi/6

t1 = 5.257 x 10⁻³

99.6t = pi/6 + 2pi

= 0.0683

The time interval that is between the first two instants when the element has a position of 0.175 is 0.0683.

b. we have k = 1.25, w = 99.6t

v = w/k

99.6/1.25 = 79.68

s = vt

= 79.68 * 0.0683

= 5.02

A transverse wave on a string is described by the wave function y(x, t) = 0.350 sin (1.25x + 99.6t) where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. Consider the element of the string at x=0. (a) What is the time interval between the first two instants when this element has a position of y= 0.175 m? (b) What distance does the wave travel during the time interval found in part (a)?
