... 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.

What is the process called in which water vapor and carbon dioxide retain heat?
saw5 [17]

The process in which water vapour and carbon dioxide traps heat is called the “greenhouse effect”.

 

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon which occurs every day. To illustrate an example of this natural phenomenon, d<span>uring the day the Sun shines through the atmosphere. Earth's surface warms up because of the sunlight. Meanwhile at night in the absence of the sunlight, Earth's surface cools back and releasing the heat back into the air. However some of the heat is retained by the greenhouse gases (such as carbon dioxide and water vapour) in the atmosphere. This process what keeps our planet Earth warm and cozy at an average temperature of 16°C.</span>

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Impulse of a force is measured by force x time or F X t

Impulse also equals change in momentum or

F x t = m v₂ - m v₁

The given case is as follows

in the first case

F x t = mv - o = mv

F = mv / t

in the second case

F₁ x 4 t = mv

F₁ = 1/4 x mv /t

F₁ = F / 4

option a) is correct .

iii )

In the last case

F₂ X t = m v/2 -0

F₂ = 1/2 x mv / t

= 1/2 x F

F₂ = F/2

Option e ) is correct.

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

Explanation:

Electric Flux = B.A cos(theta)

B = 0.055 T

A = 0.32 m^2

theta = 30

Electric Flux = (0.055 T).(0.32 m^2).Cos(30) = 0.0152 = 1.5 * 10^-2 Tm^2

Guillaume puts a bottle of soft drink in a refrigerator and leaves it there until its temperature has dropped 15.1 K.
Zarrin [17]

Answer: (a) The magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is 15.1^{o}C.

(b) The magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.2^{o}F.

Explanation:

(a)  Expression for change in temperature is as follows.

        |\Delta T| = |x - y|K

                         = 15.1 K

                    = |(x - 273.15) - (y - 273.15)|^{o}C

                    = |x - y|^{o}C

                    = 15.1^{o}C

Therefore, the magnitude of its temperature change in degrees Celsius is 15.1^{o}C.

(b)  Change in temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit is as follows.

           F = 1.8C + 32

          C = \frac{F - 32}{1.8}

Since,   K = C + 273

or,    \Delta K = \Delta C = \frac{\Delta F}{1.8}

         \Delta F = 1.8 \Delta K

                      = 1.8 (15.1)

                      = 27.18^{o}F

or,                  = 27.2^{o}F

Thus, we can conclude that the magnitude of the temperature change (change in T = 15.1 K) in degrees Fahrenheit is 27.2^{o}F.
