C. 15Ω.

The circuit diagram is shown in the first image attached. To solve this problem we have to use the equivalent resistor conected in parallel Req = (R1*R2)/(R1+R2).

Calculating the equivalent resistor in the 20Ω resistor parallel arrangement:

RAeq = [(20*20)/(20+20)] Ω

RAeq = 400/40 Ω

RAeq = 10Ω

Calculating the equivalent resistor in the 10Ω resistor parallel arrangement:

RBeq = [(10*10)/(10+10)]Ω

RBeq = 100/20 Ω

RBeq = 5Ω

Both equivalent resistors are in series. So, in order to calculate the equivalent resistance of the combination:

Rtotal = RAeq + RBeq

Rtotal = 10Ω + 5Ω

Rtotal = 15Ω

Here as we know that there is no loss of energy

so we can say that maximum kinetic energy will become gravitational potential energy at its maximum height

So here we have

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = mgh

here we have

v = 20 m/s

m = 8000 kg

now from above equation we have

\frac{1}{2}(8000)(20^2) = (8000)(9.8)h

h = \frac{200}{9.8)

h = 20.4 m

so maximum height is 20.4 m

The closer the charged particles, the... the electrostatic force.
Anna35 [415]

Answer:

please give me brain list and follow

Explanation:

Therefore, if the distance between the two charges is doubled, the attraction or repulsion becomes weaker, decreasing to one-fourth of the original value. If the charges come 10 times closer, the size of the force increases by a factor of 100. The size of the force is proportional to the value of each charge.

A rocket is launched straight up from the earth's surface at a speed of 1.60×104 m/s . what is its speed when it is very far awa
AlladinOne [14]
16,000 m/s
Since it’s speed, and the distance is unknown. Gravity isn’t applying a noticeable force too on the rocket, as if it were, then the rocket would be accelerating negatively.
