The combined electrical resistance R of two resistors R_1 and R_2, connected in parallel, is given by 1/R = 1/R_1 + 1/R_2 where

R, R_1, and R_2 are measured in ohms. R_1 and R_2 are increasing at rates of 1 and 1.5 ohms per second, respectively. At what rate is R changing when R_1=50 ohms and R_2=75 ohms?

Answer:

0.6\Omega/s

Explanation:

We are given that

R_1=150\Omega

R_2=75\Omega

\frac{dR_1}{dt}=1\Omega/s

\frac{dR_2}{dt}=1.5\Omega/s

We have to find the rate at which R is changing.

In parallel

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

Using the formula

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{50}+\frac{1}{75}=\frac{3+2}{150}=\frac{5}{150}=\frac{1}{30}

R=30\Omega

-\frac{1}{R^2}\frac{dR}{dt}=-\frac{1}{R^2_1}\frac{dR_1}{dt}-\frac{1}{R^2_2}\frac{dR_2}{dt}

\frac{1}{R^2}\frac{dR}{dt}=\frac{1}{R^2_1}\frac{dR_1}{dt}+\frac{1}{R^2_2}\frac{dR_2}{dt}

Substitute the values

\frac{1}{900}\frac{dR}{dt}=1\times\frac{1}{2500}+1.5\times\frac{1}{(75)^2}

\frac{dR}{dt}=900(\frac{1}{2500}+\frac{1.5}{5625}

\frac{dR}{dt}=0.6\Omega/s

Lisa [10]

The longer you continue to listen, the more beats will be heard.

They'll occur at the rate of (260Hz - 254Hz) = 6 Hz .

xenn [34]

Answer:

The planet Jupiter completes one revolution of the sun in 362710000 seconds. Long time, right?

Explanation:

3.154x10^7=3.154x10000000=31540000

11.5x31540000=362710000

20.0 moles, 1840 g, of a nonvolatile solute, C 3H 8O 3 is added to a flask with an unknown amount of water and stirred. The solu
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

0.144 kg of water

Explanation:

From Raoult's law,

Mole fraction of solvent = vapor pressure of solution ÷ vapor pressure of solvent = 423 mmHg ÷ 528.8 mmHg = 0.8

Let the moles of solvent (water) be y

Moles of solute (C3H8O3) = 2 mole

Total moles of solution = moles of solvent + moles of solute = (y + 2) mol

Mole fraction of solvent = moles of solvent/total moles of solution

0.8 = y/(y + 2)

y = 0.8(y + 2)

y = 0.8y + 1.6

y - 0.8y = 1.6

0.2y = 1.6

y = 1.6/0.2 = 8

Moles of solvent (water) = 8 mol

Mass of water = moles of water × MW = 8 mol × 18 g/mol = 144 g = 144/1000 = 0.144 kg
