The total resistance of an electric circuit with resistors widener series in the sum of the individual resistances:
Each resistor in a series circuit has a same amount of current flowing through it.
Each resistor in a parallel circuit has the same for voltage of the source applied to it.

When was this is are connected in parallel, the supply current is equal to the sum of the current through each resistor. In other words the currents in the branches of a parallel circuit add up to the supply current. When resistors are connected in parallel they have the same potential differences across them.

A ball is thrown vertically upwards with an initial velocity of 20.00 m/s. Neglecting air resistance, how long is the ball in th
algol [13]

Answer:

1) The greatest height attained by the ball equals 20.387 meters.

2) The time it takes for the ball to reach 15 meters approximately equals 1 second.

Explanation:

The greatest height will be attained when the ball stop's in the air and starts falling back to the earth.

thus using third equation of kinematics we obtain the height attained as

v^2=u^2+2as

where

'v' is the final speed of the ball

'u' is the initial speed of the ball

'a' is the acceleration that the ball is under which in this case equals 9.81 m/s^{2}

's' is the distance it covers

Thus for maximum height applying the values in the equation we get

0=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times h\\\\\therefore h=\frac{20^{2}}{2\times 9.81}=20.387meters

Using the same equation we can find the speed of the ball when it reaches 15 meters of height as  

v^2=20^{2}-2\times 9.81\times 15\\\\v^{2}=105.7\\\\\therefore v=10.28m/s

the time it takes to reduce the velocity to this value can be found by first equation of kinematics as

v=u+at\\\\t=\frac{v-u}{a}\\\\t=\frac{10.28-20}{-9.81}=0.991seconds\approx 1second

how much water is needed to produce 1kwh of electricity at a power plant that is 30% efficient if the temperature increase 10 C
Dimas [21]

The amount of water needed is 287 kg

Explanation:

The amount of energy that we need to produce with the power plant is

E=1 kWh = (1000W)(1h)=(1000W)(3600s)=3.6\cdot 10^6 J

We also know that the power plant is only 30% efficient, so the energy produced in input must be:

E_{in}=\frac{E}{0.30}=\frac{3.6\cdot 10^6}{0.3}=1.2\cdot 10^7 J

The amount of water that is needed to produce this energy can be found using the equation

E_{in}=mC\Delta T

where:

m is the amount of water

C=4186 J/kg^{\circ}C is the specific heat capacity of water

\Delta T=10^{\circ}C is the increase in temperature

And solving for m, we find:

m=\frac{E_{in}}{C\Delta T}=\frac{1.2\cdot 10^7}{(4186)(10)}=287 kg

A metal wire is in thermal contact with two heat reservoirs at both of its ends. Reservoir 1 is at a temperature of 781 K, and r
andreev551 [17]

Answer:2.517 J/K

Explanation:

Given

Reservoir 1 Temperature T_1=781 K

Reservoir 2 Temperature T_2=335 K

Let Q is the amount of heat Flows i.e. Q=1477 J

thus change in Entropy is given by \frac{\sum Q}{T}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{Q}{T_1}+\frac{Q}{T_2}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-\frac{1477}{781}+\frac{1477}{335}

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=-1.891+4.4089

\Delta S=\frac{\sum Q}{T}=2.517 J/K

Two football players collide head-on in midair while trying to catch a thrown football. The first player is 98.5 kg and has an i
romanna [79]

Answer:

v_f=0.825m/s

Explanation:

We must use conservation of linear momentum before and after the collision, p_i=p_f

Before the collision we have:

p_i=p_1+p_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

where these are the masses are initial velocities of both players.

After the collision we have:

p_f=(m_1+m_2)v_f

since they clong together, acting as one body.

This means we have:

m_1v_1+m_2v_2=(m_1+m_2)v_f

Or:

v_f=\frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

Which for our values is:

v_f=\frac{(98.5kg)(6.05m/s)+(119kg)(-3.5m/s)}{(98.5kg)+(119kg)}=0.825m/s
