The resistance needed to be added is R
The Current is 2 ma
The voltage reading is a maximum of 50 volts.
The ma meter has an internal resistance of 40 ohms.

Formula
E = I * R

Givens
E = 50
I = 2 ms
R = R + 40

Solution
E = I * R
I = 2 ma [ 1 amp / 1000 ma] = 0.002 amp
50 = 0.002 * (R + 40)  Divide by 0.002
50/0.002 = R + 40
25000 = R + 40 Subtract 40 from both sides.
R = 25000 - 40
R = 24960     Answer

The meter will still deflect full-scale when the current through it is 2 mA.
(That's 0.002 Amp.)
You want that to happen when the meter is connected to two points
with a potential difference of 50v between them.

The total resistance in the meter circuit has to be

R = (voltage) / (current) = (50v) / (0.002 A) = 25,000 Ohms.

You already have 40 ohms in the meter's mechanism.
So technically, if you want to nail it right-on, you'll want
a resistor of exactly 24,960 ohms in series with the galvanometer. 

(You can't buy a resistor with this kind of precision.  But there are
ways to take a resistor from the store, and increase its resistance
little by little, until you have exactly what you want.)

Water (density = 1 ´ 103 kg/m3) flows at 10 m/s through a pipe with radius 0.030 m. the pipe goes up to the second floor of the
Hatshy [7]

density of water = 1000 kg/m^3

velocity of flow = 10 m/s

radius of pipe = 0.030 m

Height of second floor = 2 m

Now we can use here Bernuoli's Equation to find the speed of water flow at second floor

P_1 + 1/2\rho v_1^2 + \rho g h_1= P_2 + 1/2 \rho v_2^2 + \rho g h_2

P + 1/2 * 1000 * 10^2 + 1000* 9.8 * 0 = P + 1/2 * 1000 * v^2 + 1000*9.8*2

v = 7.8 m/s

Now in order to find the radius of pipe we can use equation of continuity

A_1 v_1 = A_2 v_2

\pi *0.030^2 * 10 = \pi * r^2 * 7.8

r = 0.034 m

So radius of pipe at second floor is 0.034 meter

Which best describes the law of conservation of mass? The coefficients in front of the chemicals in the reactants should be base
likoan [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

1. when both sides of the reactants and the products are equal

like h+oh ⇒ h20

hydrogen has 2 atoms on both sides and oxygen  has one  on both sides

2. no they are put to balance the equation

3. nope they are treated equally as all the other states

4. no if u are talking about a formula unit like NaCl for example it is aqueous not each element taken on its own if u are talking about just elements then i said before all states are treated equally

5. yup

A 0.8 m length of wire is formed into a single turn, square loop in which there is a current of 12 A. The loop is placed in magn
rewona [7]

Answer:

0.073 N-m

Explanation:

i = 12 A, l = 0.8 m, B = 0.12 T

The circumference of the loop is 0.8 m.

Let r be the radius of the loop.

2 x 3.14 x r = 0.8

r = 0.127 m

Maximum Torque = i x A x B

Maximum Torque = 12 x 3.14 x 0.127 x 0.127 x 0.12 = 0.073 N-m
