Two cars A and B are 100m apart moving towards each other with

Physics

Let car A's starting position be the origin, so that its position at time <em>t</em> is

A: <em>x</em> = (40 m/s) <em>t</em>

and car B has position at time <em>t</em> of

B: <em>x</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

<em />

They meet when their positions are equal:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 100 m

<em>t</em> = (100 m) / (100 m/s) = 1 s

so the cars meet 1 second after they start moving.

They are 100 m apart when the difference in their positions is equal to 100 m:

(40 m/s) <em>t</em> - (100 m - (60 m/s) <em>t</em>) = 100 m

(subtract car B's position from car A's position because we take car A's direction to be positive)

(100 m/s) <em>t</em> = 200 m

<em>t</em> = (200 m) / (100 m/s) = 2 s

so the cars are 100 m apart after 2 seconds.

If there are 3 resistors of .5 ohms, 1 ohms, and 1 ohms connected in parallel then what is the equivalent resistance
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:0.45ohms

Explanation:

Let R be there equivalent resistance

1/R=1/r+1/r+1/r

1/R=1/5+1/1+1/1

1/R=1/5+2

1/R=(1+10)/5

1/R=11/5

Cross multiplying we get

11R=5

Divide both sides by 11

11R ➗ 11=5 ➗ 11

R=0.45ohms
