There is a 0.40-A current in resistor X when it is connected to a 2.0-V battery. A 0.25-A current is in a second resistor, Y, wh

en it is connected to a 4-V battery. There is a 0.50-A current in a third resistor, Z, when it is connected to a 5.0-V battery. Find the resistor that has the maximum resistance and the resistor that has the least resistance.

We can find the value of the resistance R of each resistor by using Ohm's law:
V=IR
where
V is the potential difference across the resistor
I is the current flowing through it

First resistor:
R_X =  \frac{V}{I}= \frac{2.0 V}{0.40 A}=5 \Omega
Second resistor:
R_Y =  \frac{V}{I}= \frac{4 V}{0.25 A}=16 \Omega
Third resistor:
R_Z =  \frac{V}{I}= \frac{5.0 V}{0.50 A}=10 \Omega

So, the resistor with the maximum resistance is the second one (Y), while the resistor with the least resistance is the first one (X)

Which of the following are properties of mechanical waves?
yuradex [85]

The properties of mechanical waves are : ( C and D )

  • The three categories of mechanical waves are transverse, longitudinal,surface waves ( C )
  • Waves transport energy,but not matter ( D )

<h3>What are mechanical waves ?</h3>

Mechanical waves are a category of waves which cannot transmit energy through a vacuum, i.e. they require a medium to transmit their energy from one end to another. An example of a mechanical wave is : sound wave. Mechanical waves are grouped into transverse, longitudinal and surface waves.

Hence we can conclude that The properties of mechanical waves are : The three categories of mechanical waves are transverse, longitudinal,surface waves and Waves transport energy,but not matter

Which is true about Pluto
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

D.)it orbits near the Kepler belt

Explanation:

The Kuiper belt is an area similar to the asteroide belt extending from the orbit of Neptune to about 50 AU from the Sun. It mainly consists of icy asteroids and dwarf planets, which are rocky objects big enough to be defined as planet but that do not have enough gravity to clear their orbit from other obejcts.

Pluto was discovered in 1930 - initially it was classified as a planet, although it is much smaller than the other 8 planets of the Solar System. However, it has been recently de-classified to dwarf planet because its gravity is not enough to clear its orbit from other objects (asteroids). Pluto is located inside the Kuiper belt, so option D is correct. Other dwarf planets in the Kuiper belt are for instance Haumea and Makemake.

In a completely frictionless Newton's Cradle toy, the change in speed of the balls coming in and those going out is zero. This i
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

False. The net force is Zero

Explanation:

To answer this question we propose the solution of the problem.

 We have a toy where balls come in and out after crashes between them, this toy forms our system, so all the balls are parts of the system, when the balls collide with each other according to Newton's third law force and action and reaction, so it has the same magnitude, but opposite direction, this is each is applied to some of the objects.

In conclusion of the previous one for the system the net force is Zero, all are internal. Therefore, the only thing that happens is a redistribution of speeds according to the conservation of the moment.

Let's review the answer.

False. The net force is Zero

Why would a flare be observed in visible light, when they are so much brighter in X-ray and ultraviolet light?
raketka [301]

Answer:

Because it radiates a spectre of frequencies, this means that it radiates in a continuous range of frequencies, ones with more intensity (like x-ray and ultraviolet) and others with less intensity (like the visible light). While most of the radiation is not in the visible range, there still is a part of the radiation in the visible spectre. And while this part is not the most intense part, the radiation is so large that we can see a very bright visible light.
