Answer:

A) the same current flows in each one.

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in series, Ohm's law states that the current flowing through each resistor is the same. Since it is similar to Ohm's law for a single resistor, except that the series resistors appear as a sum. Then, the total resistance of a series circuit is equal to the sum of the individual resistors.

A billiard ball moving at 0.5 m/s strikes another identical billiard ball, which is at rest, in an elastic head-on collision on

NikAS [45]

Answer: assuming that the billiard balls are of identical weight the impacted billiard ball will move forward at around 0.5m/s (not considering energy conservation). The ball impacting the 2nd one would stop because most of its Kinetic energy would have been transferred into the not moving ball.

6A certain load and set of slings create a 20-degree angle between the load and each sling leg. Using a spreader for the same li

Otrada [13]

Solution:

The angle between the sling and the load is $20^{\circ}$

So the tension in each sling can be calculated as

$Sin \theta = Mg => T = \frac{Mg}{2Sin\theta}$

$Sin \theta=> \frac{Mg}{2Sin 20^{\circ}}$

Where

M is the mass of the load

The Horizontal reaction on the sling will be inward.

After using the spreader, the new angle between sling and load is $60^{\circ}$ , the tension in the sling will be

$T= \frac{Mg}{2 Sin 60^{\circ}}$ = $\frac{Mg}{2 Sin 20^{\circ}}$

The tension will be same as before in the sling move away through the spreader at an angle more than 90 degree the horizontal force will act opposite and will be outward
