Answer:

The total resistance is 15 Ω, the total current is 1A, The potential drop in R1 and R2 are 10V and 5V respectively and the total power develped is 15 W.

Explanation:

First it is necessary to simplify the circuit. We can do this by calculating the total or equivalent resistance Re. For series resistance arrangement, Re is computed as:

RT = R1 + R2 = 5 Ω + 10 Ω = 15 Ω

According to Ohm’s law the total current can be calculated dividing the total voltage V by Re:

I = V/Re = 15V/15Ω = 1A  

This current will be the same current through R1 and R2. Then we can compute the potential drop across R2 multiplying the current across R1 by the resistance:

VR1 = I*R2 = 1 A * 10 Ω = 10 V  

The potential drop across R2 is obtained in the same way as R1, considering R2 resistance:

VR2 = I*R1 = 1 A * 5Ω = 5 V

The total power could be calculated multiplying the total current I by the total voltage:

P = I*V = 1 A * 15 V = 15 W

A ball of mass 1.6 kg is attached to the end of a massless string. A circus clown twirls the
erik [133]

Compute the ball's angular speed <em>v</em> :

<em>v</em> = (1 rev) / (2.3 s) • (2<em>π</em> • 180 cm/rev) • (1/100 m/cm) ≈ 4.917 m/s

Use this to find the magnitude of the radial acceleration <em>a</em> :

<em>a</em> = <em>v </em>²/<em>R</em>

where <em>R</em> is the radius of the circular path. We get

<em>a</em> = <em>v</em> ² / (180 cm) = <em>v</em> ² / (1.8 m) ≈ 13.43 m/s²

The only force acting on the ball in the plane parallel to the circular path is the tension force. By Newton's second law, the net force acting on the ball has magnitude

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>m</em> <em>a</em>

where <em>m</em> is the mass of the ball. So, if <em>t</em> denotes the magnitude of the tension force, then

<em>t</em> = (1.6 kg) (13.43 m/s²) ≈ 21 N

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

d = 1.24 kg/m³

v = 0.81 m³/kg

Explanation:

To do this, we need to analyze the given data and know the expressions we need to use here to do calculations.

We have a pressure of 1.05 atm and 300 K of temperature. To determine the density, we need to use a similar expression of an ideal gas. In this case, instead of using moles, we will use density:

P = dRT

d = P/RT  (1)

Where:

R: universal constant of gases

d: density.

From here we can determine the specific volume by using the following expression:

v = 1/d   (2)

Now, as we are looking for density, we need to convert the units of pressure in atm to Pascal (or N/m) and the conversion is the following:

P = 1.05 atm * 1.013x10⁵ N/m atm = 106,365 N/m

Now, using R as 287 the density would be:

d = 106,365 / (287 * 300)

<h2>d = 1.24 kg/m³</h2>

Finally the specific volume:

v = 1 / 1.41

<h2>v = 0.81 m³/kg</h2>

Hope this helps
