Wire A carries 4 A into a junction, wire B carries 5 A into the same junction, and another wire is connected to the junction. Wh

Answer:9A

Explanation:

let the last wire be wire C

According to Kirchhoff's rule

the sum of all currents entering a junction must be equal to the sum of all currents leaving a junction

Ic=Ia+Ib

Ic= 4+5

Ic=9A

Why does conduction occur more slowly in gases than in solids?

Nataly [62]

Onduction in gas is slower than in liquids and solids because the particles in a gas collide less often. Conduction in metals is faster because the electrons are free to move about

Andrew skis down a hill.

IceJOKER [234]

Explanation:

gravitational potential energy at the top of the hill, which transforms into kinetic energy as he moves bottom of the hill

that's mean potential energy transfoms into kinetic energy

What happens to a mirror when a ray is directed at it

mixas84 [53]

Nothing happens to the mirror.

However, if the ray is within some suitable range of
wavelengths, the ray is reflected from the mirror's surface.

What is the domain theory of ferromagnetism?

Margaret [11]

A region within a magnetic material in which magnetization is in a uniform direction this means the individual magnetic moments of the atoms are aligned with one another and they point the same direction. when cooled bwlow a temperature called the curie temperature the magnetization of a piece of ferromagnetic material.<span />

engineers are using computer models to study train collisions design safer train cars. They start by modeling an elastic collisi

Archy [21]

Answer:

The final velocity of the second car is 57 m/s south.

Explanation:

This is an elastic collision between two train cars. In this case, the total kinetic energy between the two bodies will remain the same.

The formula to apply is :

$m_1v_1i +m_2v_2i=m_1v_1f+m_2v_2f$

where ;

$m_1=mass of object 1\\v_1i=initial velocity object1\\m_2=mass of object2\\v_2i=initial velocity object 2\\v_1f=final velocity object 1\\v_2f=final velocity object 2$

Given in the question that;

$m_1=14650kg\\v_1i=18m/s\\m_2=3825kg\\v_2i=11m/s\\v_1f=6m/s\\v_2f=?$

Apply the formula as;

$m_1v_1i +m_2v_2i=m_1v_1f+m_2v_2f$

{14650*18}+{3825*11} = {14650 *6} + {3825 * v₂f}

263700+42075=87900 + 3825v₂f

305775 =87900 + 3825v₂f

305775-87900 = 3825v₂f

217875=3825v₂f

217875/3825 =v₂f

56.96 = v₂f

<u>57 m/s = v₂f { nearest whole number}</u>
