Surface runoff is water, from rain, snow melt, or other sources, that flows over the land surface, and is a major component of the water cycle. Runoff that occurs on surfaces before reaching a channel is also called overland flow. A land area which produces runoff draining to a common point is called a watershed. When runoff flows along the ground, it can pick up soil contaminants such as petroleum, pesticides, or fertilizers that become discharge or overland flow.

Find the equivalent resistance Req between terminals a and b if terminals c and d are open and again if terminals c and d are sh

adoni [48]

Answer:

351 ohm

720 ohm

Explanation:

When c and d are open:

Terminals c and d are open.. If you redraw the circuit as below, you can see that the two resistors in the first column are in parallel as, they are connected together at both pairs of terminals (due to the short).

Hence, we have a pair of parallel resistors:

Req1 = (R1*R2)/ (R1 + R2) = 360*540/(360+540) = 216 ohms

Req2 = (R3*R4)/ (R3 + R4) = 180*540/(180+540) = 135 ohms

Now these two sets are in series with another Hence,

Req = Req1 + Req2 = 216 + 135 = 351 ohms

Answer: 351 ohms

When c and d are shorted:

The current will flow through the least resistant path naturally from resistors R3 and R1 or R4.

Both of these resistor lie in a single path placing the resistors in series to one another, hence

Req = R3 + R1 = 180 + 540 = 720 ohms

Answer:720 ohms

A ball is thrown straight upward and rises to a maximum

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know that the ball is projected upwards so that it will reach to maximum height of 16 m

so we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

here we know that

$v_f = 0$

also we have

$a = -9.81 m/s^2$

so we have

$0 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)(16)$

$v_i = 17.72 m/s$

Now we need to find the height where its speed becomes half of initial value

so we have

$v_f = 0.5 v_i$

now we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$(0.5v_i)^2 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)h$

$-0.75v_i^2 = -19.62 h$

$0.75(17.72)^2 = 19.62 h$

$h = 12 m$

What property do the following elements have in common? Li, C, and F A) They are poor conductors of electricity. B) Each element

Aloiza [94]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given elements Li, C and F are all second period elements. So, when we move from left to right across a period then there occurs increase in number of valence electrons as there occurs increase in total number of electrons.

So, it means more electrons are added to the same energy level.

Thus, we can conclude that a property of valence electrons for each element is located in the same energy level is common in the given elements.
