Answer:

a) The voltage on resistor R1 is less than before. Letter B.

b) The current through R1 is less than before. Letter B.

c) The resistance of the circuit went up by adding R2 in series. Letter A.

Explanation:

a) The new resistor R2 was added in series, that means the same current goes through both resistors (R1 and R2) and that the sum of the individual voltage drop of those resistors should be the same as the voltage of the source. Before there was only resistor R1 connected to the source, so all the voltage of the source was being delivered to that component, but now it is divided between R1 and R2. So the voltage on R1 is less than previously. Letter B.

b) A battery works as a voltage source, so assuming it's charged, it delivers a value of voltage to the circuit, while the current flow through it is defined by the equivalent resistance across the terminals. Since the new resistor was added in series the total resistance of the circuit went up and the current delivered by the battery went down. Letter B.

c) Since the equivalent resistance for a series connection is the sum of the resistors, R12 = R1 + R2, the resistence went up. Letter A.

Potassium goes to argon so that a proton in the K nucleus "vanishes" into a positron (positive electron ?) but keeps the same atomic mass at 38. ? I'd say that the number of the positron was 0, and the charge was +1 electronic charge.

A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.4 ft/s,

Art [367]

Answer:

$\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s$

Explanation:

given,

length of ladder = 10 ft

let x be the distance of the bottom and y be the distance of the top of ladder.

x² + y² = 100

differentiating with respect to time we get

$2 x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0$ ..............(1)

when x = 8 and y = 6 and when \dfrac{dx}{dt} = 1.4ft/s

from equation (1)

now,

$16\times 1.4 + 12\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 0$

$\dfrac{dy}{dt} = -\dfrac{5.6}{3}$

let the angle between the ladders be θ

$tan\theta = \dfrac{y}{x}$

y = xtan θ

$\dfrac{dy}{dt} =\dfrac{dy}{dt} tan\theta + x sec^2\theta\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}$

$-\dfrac{5.6}{3} =1.4\times \dfrac{6}{8} + 8 (1+\dfrac{9}{16})\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\dfrac{25}{2} \dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =\dfrac{-17.5}{6}$

$\dfrac{d\theta}{dt} =-0.233\ rad/s$

1. Una bola de 0.510 kg de masa se mueve al este (dirección +x) con una rapidez de 4.80 m/s y choca frontalmente con una bola de

Grace [21]

Responder:

3,37 m / s, + ve x - dirección

Explicación:

Utilizando la ley de conservación de la cantidad de movimiento expresada por la fórmula;

m1u1 + m2u2 = (m1 + m2) v

m1 y m2 son las masas de los objetos

u1 y u2 son sus velocidades iniciales

v es su velocidad común

Dado

m1 = 0,519 kg

u1 = 4,80 m / s

m2 = 0,220 kg

u2 = 0 m / s (cuerpo en reposo)

Necesario

Velocidad común v

Sustituir en la fórmula los valores dados;

0,519 (4,8) + 0,22 (0) = (0,519 + 0,220) v

2,4912 + 0 = 0,739 v

2,4912 = 0,739v

Dividir ambos lados por 0,739

2,4912 / 0,739 = 0,739 / 0,739

v = 3,37 m / s

Por lo tanto, la rapidez de ambas bolas después de la colisión es de 3.37 m.s hacia la dirección x positiva, ya que m1> m2 y la velocidad común es positiva.

Two arrows are shot vertically upward. the second arrow is shot after the first one, but while the first is still on its way up.

Neko [114]

Now that you know the time to reach its maximum height, you have enough information to find out the initial velocity of the second arrow. Here's what you know about it: its final velocity is 0 m/s (at the maximum height), its time to reach that is 2.8 seconds, but wait! it was fired 1.05 seconds later, so take off 1.05 seconds so that its time is 1.75 seconds, and of course gravity is still the same at -9.8 m/s^2. Plug those numbers into the kinematic equation (Vf=Vi+a*t, remember?) for 0=Vi+-9.8*1.75 and solve for Vi to get....... 17.15 m/s
