What is the equivalent resistance of a circuit that contains four 75.0 resistors connected in parallel with a 100.0 V battery?
zhannawk [14.2K]
To get the total resistance in a parallel circuit, you need to remember that unlike in a series, you do not just merely add the resistances. You need to get the reciprocal first of each resistance and add them together. 

\frac{1}{R_{T}} =  \frac{1}{R_{1}}+\frac{1}{R_{2}}+\frac{1}{R_{3}}... +\frac{1}{R_{n}}

After adding them, you will get the reciprocal again and then compute for the value. The problem says that there are 4 resistors in the circuit that have a resistance of 75.

\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{1}{75}+\frac{1}{75}+\frac{1}{75}+\frac{1}{75}

Add up the numerator and copy the denominator:

\frac{1}{R_{T}} = \frac{4}{75}

Then get the reciprocal to get the total resistance:

R _{T} = \frac{75}{4}  = 18.75

The answer to your question then is A. 18.8.

NeX [460]

Explanation:

Formula to represent thrust is as follows.

             F = \frac{dP}{dt}

                = \frac{2p}{dt}

or,           p = \frac{E}{c}

         \frac{p}{dt} = \frac{W}{c}

                  F = \frac{2IA}{c}

                     = \frac{2 (1000 W/m^{2})(5.5 \times 10^{3} m)^{2}}{3 \times 10^{8} m/s}

                     = 201.67 N

Thus, we can conclude that the thrust is 201.67 N.
