Answer:

B. 12.0A

Explanation:

The circuit shown in the image is a parallel circuit which mean that the voltage of the source is equal across each resistance in the circuit because they are directly connected to the terminals of the voltage source.

The voltage across the 10 Ohms resistor is 120V

So, let's proceed to calculate the current

By using Ohm's Law

$I=\frac{V}{R} \\I= \frac{120.0V}{10.0Ohm} \\I= 12.0A$

12A is the amount of current flowing through the 10 ohms resistor.

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

The ends of the 10-ohm resistor are connected directly to both terminals of the battery.

So the voltage across the resistor is the voltage of the battery ... 120 V. None of that other stuff in the circuit has any effect on it.

Current = (120 V) / (10 ohms)

Current = 12 A . (B)

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster is 10,800 km/s. (a) using H0 = 73 km/s/Mpc, find the distance to

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) 147.95 Mpc

Explanation:

Using Hubble's formula

$v = H_od$

where;

v = radical velocity

$H_o$ = Hubble's constant

d = distance

Given that:

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster v = 10,800 km/s

Also using $H_o$ = 73 km/s/ Mpc ; we make distance d the subject of the formula:

Then distance d can be written as:

$d = \frac{v}{H_o}$

$d = \frac{10,800 \ km/s}{73 \ km/s/Mpc}$

d = 147.95 Mpc

Now, if the Hubble constant had a smaller value, then for a given velocity the distance to the galaxy will increase because distance d is inversely proportional to $H_o$

i.e

d ∝ $\frac{1}{H_0}$

When an atom releases gamma radiation____________.

wel

Answer:

d. the atomic number remains the same.

Explanation:

First at all it's important to know how to read nuclear information

$_{Z}^{A}X$

X is the atomic symbol, A the mass number and Z the atomic number of the element.

Gamma rays emitted on gamma decay are characterized as $_{0}^{0}\gamma$

If we write the nuclear equation for the decay, we have that:

$_{Z}^{A}X\,\rightarrow{}_{0}^{0}\gamma\,+\,{}_{Z}^{A}Y$

The sum of the mass numbers and atomic numbers on the right side has to be equal to the left side numbers of the equation, that means the mass number and the atomic number remains the same for the resulting atom to preserve the equality.
