... take the reciprocal of each resistor.
... add the fractions
... take the reciprocal of their sum; that's the answer.

When there are only two resistors, here's an easier way:

... find their product
... find their sum
... divide the product by the sum; that's the answer.

Your parallel resistors make 10.193 ohms.

How do the current and coltage readings compare to before the wires were switched. Explain how to interpret them physically?
Blababa [14]
  • The potential difference between two locations in an electric circuit is measured using a voltmeter.
  • If the electricity passes through the voltmeter it shows deflection.

<h3>What is the purpose of a voltmeter?</h3>
  • A voltage meter, usually referred to as a voltmeter, is a device that measures the voltage, or potential difference, between two points in an electrical or electronic circuit.
  • volts is the unit of voltmeter(volts, millivolts, kilovolts)

<h3>What is the explanation for the link between current and voltage?</h3>
  • Ohm's law states that the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it, provided all physical conditions and temperatures remain constant.

<h3>What is ohm's law in circuit?</h3>
  • V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance, is known as Ohm's Law.
  • If you know the voltage of the battery in the circuit and how much resistance is in the circuit, you may use Ohm's Law to identify properties of a circuit, such as how much current is flowing through it.

The gravitational potential energy of a particle of mass m moving under the influence of a fixed mass M is given by - , where G
djverab [1.8K]

-GMm/2r is the total energy of the mass m if it is in a circular orbit about mass M.

Given

A particle of mass m moving under the influence of a fixed mass's M, gravitational potential energy of formula  -GMm/r, where r is the separation between the masses and G is the gravitational constant of the universe.

As the Gravity Potential energy of particle = -GMm/r

Total energy of particle = Kinetic energy + Potential Energy

As we know that

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²

Also, v is equals to square root of GM/r

v = √GM/r

Put the value of v in the formula of kinetic energy

We get,

Kinetic Energy = GMm/2r

Total Energy = GMm/2r + (-GMm/r)

                     = GMm/2r - GMm/r

                     = -GMm/2r

Hence, -GMm/2r is the total energy of the mass m if it is in a circular orbit about mass M.

(a) How many kilograms of water must evaporate from a 60.0-kg woman to lower their body temperature by 0.750ºC?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

69.69 g

Explanation:

Evaporation of water will take out latent heat of vaporization.  Let the mass of water be m and latent heat of vaporization of water be 2260000 J per kg

Heat taken up by evaporating water

= 2260000 x m J

Heat lost by body

= mass x specific heat of body x drop in temperature

60 x 3500 x .750  ( specific heat of human body is 3.5 kJ/kg.k)

= 157500 J

Heat loss = heat gain

2260000 m= 157500

m = .06969 kg

= 69.69 g

A vitamin called folic acid is very important for neural tube development, which is the development of the baby's
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Explanation:

Folic acid is the form of folate found in vitamin supplements and fortified foods. Fortified foods, also called enriched foods, are foods that have specific nutrients added to them.

Neural tube defect happen when the tissues and bone around the brain and spine do not grow well. Neural tube can happen in the third and fourth week after conception (the first or second week after your first missed period). This could be before you know that you are pregnant.

Folic acid lowers the risk of your unborn baby having a neural tube defect . Neural tube are a group of serious birth defects that affect a baby’s spinal cord, brain and skull. Some babies with severe Neural tube defect birth are stillborn or do not survive long after birth. Spina Bifida is the most common Neural tube defect.
