Given that in a parallel circuit:

R1 = 12 ohms

R2= 15 ohms

I = 12 A

I2 = 4 A

V=?

R=?

R3 =?

P=?

Since,

V= IR

or,

V2 = I2 * R2

V2= 4* 15

V2 = 60V

Since in a parallel circuit voltage remain same in all component of the circuit and is equal to the source voltage.

Therefore,

V= V1 = V2 = V3 = 60V

Since,

V= IR

R= V/I

R= 60/12

R= 5 ohm

That is total resistance is equal to 5 ohms.

Since for parallel circuit,

1/R= 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

1/5= 1/12+ 1/15 + 1/R3

or

1/R3= 1/5- 1/12- 1/15

1/R3= 1/20

or

R3= 20 ohms

Since,

V=IR

I= V/R

I1= V1/ R1

I1= 60/12

I1= 5 A

I3= V3/R3

I3= 60/20

I3= 3A

Since,

P=VI

P= 60*12

P=  720 watt

P1= V1* I1

P1= 60* 5

P1= 300 watt

P2= V2* I2

P2= 60* 4

P2= 240watt

P3= V3*I3

P3= 60*3

P3= 180 watt

Hence we have,

R1= 12 ohms , R2= 15 ohms, R3= 20 ohms, R= 5 ohms

I1= 5A, I2= 4A, I3= 3A, I= 12 A

V1= V2= V3= V= 60V

P1= 300 watt, P2= 240 watt, P3 = 180 watt, P= 720 watt

Light with a wavelength of about 490 nm is made to pass through a diffraction grating. the angle formed between the path of the
polet [3.4K]

The number of lines per mm in the diffraction grating is 326.

<h3>What is diffraction grating?</h3>

A diffraction grating is a type of optical instrument obtained with a continuous pattern. The pattern of the diffracted light by a grating depends on the structure and number of elements present.

The given data in the problem is

\rm \theta is the angle formed between the path of the incident light and the diffracted light = 9. 2°

λ is the wavelength of the light=490nm=4.9

N is the number of lines per mm in the diffraction grating=?

n is ordered = 1

The formula for the diffraction grating is;

n \lambda = d sin\theta \\\\ d = \frac{n \lambda}{sin \theta } \\\\  d = \frac{1 \times 4.90 \times 10^{-7}}{sin 9.2^0 } \\\\ d=3.06 \times 10^{-6} \\\\ d=3.06 \times 10^{-3} \ mm

The number of lines per mm is found as;

\rm N= \frac{1}{d} \\\\ N= \frac{1}{3.06 \TIMES 10^{-3}} \\\\ N=326.8 /mm

Hence the number of lines per mm in the diffraction grating is 326.

Jeff is a landscaping contractor and lifts a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging a board under the rock. Jeff weighs 150 pounds
jonny [76]

Answer: 4

The mechanical advantage is the ratio of the force exerted  by the object to the force applied to do work on it.

Here, Jeff tried to lift a rock weighing 600 pounds by wedging board under the rock. Jeff who weighs 150 pounds uses all his weight to exert force on lever and lift rock.

Mechanical advantage, M.A.=\frac{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}rock}{weight\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1 mm}Jeff}=\frac{600 pounds}{150 pounds}=4.

Therefore, the mechanical advantage that lever provided to Jeff in lifting rock is 4.

A wave travels at 175 m/s along the x-axis.If the period of the periodic vibrations of the wave is 3.00 milliseconds,then what i
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:  

<h2>E) 52.5 cm</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

period T= 3 milliseconds= 0.003

velocity v= 175m/s

wave lenght λ=?

Step two:

we know that f=1/T

the expression relating period and wave lenght is

v=λ/T

λ=v*T

λ=175*0.002

λ=0.525m

to cm= 0.525*100

=52.5cm

The wavelength of the wave is E) 52.5 cm

A soccer ball kicked with a force of 12.5 N accelerates at 6.2 m/s’ to the right. What is the mass of the ball? Answer in units
stepladder [879]

Answer:

m = 2.01[kg]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using Newton's second law which tells us that the force applied on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F =m*a

where:

F = force = 12.5 [N]

m = mass [kg]

a = acceleration = 6.2 [m/s²]

12.5=m*6.2\\m = 2.01[kg]
