Explanation:
As the given data is as follows.
ohm
,

= 1200
(as 1 k ohm = 1000 m)
(a) We will calculate the maximum resistance by combining the given resistances as follows.
Max. Resistance =

= 2600 ohm
or, = 2.6
ohm
Therefore, the maximum resistance you can obtain by combining these is 2.6
ohm.
(b) Now, the minimum resistance is calculated as follows.
Min. Resistance =

Hence, we can conclude that minimum resistance you can obtain by combining these is
ohm.
Answer:
Distance = 345719139.4[m]; acceleration = 3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]
Explanation:
We can solve this problem by using Newton's universal gravitation law.
In the attached image we can find a schematic of the locations of the Earth and the moon and that the sum of the distances re plus rm will be equal to the distance given as initial data in the problem rt = 3.84 × 108 m
![r_{e} = distance earth to the astronaut [m].\\r_{m} = distance moon to the astronaut [m]\\r_{t} = total distance = 3.84*10^8[m]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r_%7Be%7D%20%3D%20distance%20earth%20to%20the%20astronaut%20%5Bm%5D.%5C%5Cr_%7Bm%7D%20%3D%20distance%20moon%20to%20the%20astronaut%20%5Bm%5D%5C%5Cr_%7Bt%7D%20%3D%20total%20distance%20%3D%203.84%2A10%5E8%5Bm%5D)
Now the key to solving this problem is to establish a point of equalisation of both forces, i.e. the point where the Earth pulls the astronaut with the same force as the moon pulls the astronaut.
Mathematically this equals:

![F_{m} =G*\frac{m_{m}*m_{a} }{r_{m} ^{2} } \\where:\\G = gravity constant = 6.67*10^{-11}[\frac{N*m^{2} }{kg^{2} } ] \\m_{e}= earth's mass = 5.98*10^{24}[kg]\\ m_{a}= astronaut mass = 100[kg]\\m_{m}= moon's mass = 7.36*10^{22}[kg]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=F_%7Bm%7D%20%3DG%2A%5Cfrac%7Bm_%7Bm%7D%2Am_%7Ba%7D%20%20%7D%7Br_%7Bm%7D%20%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Cwhere%3A%5C%5CG%20%3D%20gravity%20constant%20%3D%206.67%2A10%5E%7B-11%7D%5B%5Cfrac%7BN%2Am%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%7Bkg%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%20%5D%20%5C%5Cm_%7Be%7D%3D%20earth%27s%20mass%20%3D%205.98%2A10%5E%7B24%7D%5Bkg%5D%5C%5C%20m_%7Ba%7D%3D%20astronaut%20mass%20%3D%20100%5Bkg%5D%5C%5Cm_%7Bm%7D%3D%20moon%27s%20mass%20%3D%207.36%2A10%5E%7B22%7D%5Bkg%5D)
When we match these equations the masses cancel out as the universal gravitational constant

To solve this equation we have to replace the first equation of related with the distances.

Now, we have a second-degree equation, the only way to solve it is by using the formula of the quadratic equation.
![r_{m1,2}=\frac{-b+- \sqrt{b^{2}-4*a*c } }{2*a}\\ where:\\a=80.25\\b=768*10^{6} \\c = -1.47*10^{17} \\replacing:\\r_{m1,2}=\frac{-768*10^{6}+- \sqrt{(768*10^{6})^{2}-4*80.25*(-1.47*10^{17}) } }{2*80.25}\\\\r_{m1}= 38280860.6[m] \\r_{m2}=-2.97*10^{17} [m]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r_%7Bm1%2C2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-b%2B-%20%5Csqrt%7Bb%5E%7B2%7D-4%2Aa%2Ac%20%7D%20%20%7D%7B2%2Aa%7D%5C%5C%20%20where%3A%5C%5Ca%3D80.25%5C%5Cb%3D768%2A10%5E%7B6%7D%20%5C%5Cc%20%3D%20-1.47%2A10%5E%7B17%7D%20%5C%5Creplacing%3A%5C%5Cr_%7Bm1%2C2%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B-768%2A10%5E%7B6%7D%2B-%20%5Csqrt%7B%28768%2A10%5E%7B6%7D%29%5E%7B2%7D-4%2A80.25%2A%28-1.47%2A10%5E%7B17%7D%29%20%7D%20%20%7D%7B2%2A80.25%7D%5C%5C%5C%5Cr_%7Bm1%7D%3D%2038280860.6%5Bm%5D%20%5C%5Cr_%7Bm2%7D%3D-2.97%2A10%5E%7B17%7D%20%5Bm%5D)
We work with positive value
rm = 38280860.6[m] = 38280.86[km]
<u>Second part</u>
<u />
The distance between the Earth and this point is calculated as follows:
re = 3.84 108 - 38280860.6 = 345719139.4[m]
Now the acceleration can be found as follows:
![a = G*\frac{m_{e} }{r_{e} ^{2} } \\a = 6.67*10^{11} *\frac{5.98*10^{24} }{(345.72*10^{6})^{2} } \\a=3.33*10^{19} [m/s^2]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=a%20%3D%20G%2A%5Cfrac%7Bm_%7Be%7D%20%7D%7Br_%7Be%7D%20%5E%7B2%7D%20%7D%20%5C%5Ca%20%3D%206.67%2A10%5E%7B11%7D%20%2A%5Cfrac%7B5.98%2A10%5E%7B24%7D%20%7D%7B%28345.72%2A10%5E%7B6%7D%29%5E%7B2%7D%20%20%7D%20%5C%5Ca%3D3.33%2A10%5E%7B19%7D%20%5Bm%2Fs%5E2%5D)
Answer:
The compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.
Explanation:
Given that,
Mass of the car, m = 39000 kg
Height of the car, h = 19 m
Spring constant of the spring, 
We need to find the compression in the spring in stopping the ore car. It can be done by balancing loss in gravitational potential energy and the increase in elastic energy. So,

x is the compression in spring

So, the compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.
Area of a circle is
A= pi r^2
so
500m^2 = 3.14 r2
500/pi = r ^2
152.1549...=r^2
square root both sides
r=12.61566...
d=2r
d=25.2
