What is the equivalent resistance between points A and C if R1=1430, R2=1350, R3=1100, R4=1350, and R5=1150.

Marianna [84]

R1 + R4 = 1430 + 1350 = 2780 = R14 series combination of R1 & R4

R2 + R5 = 1350 + 1150 = 2500 = R25

The circuit has been reduced to 3 resistors in parallel

R314 = 2780 * 1100 / (2780 + 1100) = 788 this is the resistance of the parallel combination of R14 and R3

R31425 = 2500 * 788 / (2500 + 788) = 599 which is the equivalent of the circuit - you can also use the formula for 3 resistors in parallel but this seems simpler

A soccer player kicks a rock horizontally off a 37 m high cliff into a pool of water. If the player hears the sound of the splas

Alchen [17]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

(a). 16.741 m/s

(b). 15.75 m/s

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Height of the cliff, h = 37 m

Time taken to reach the sound to us = 2.92 s

Speed of the sound in air at room temperature = 343 m/s

Now,

Let us say the speed of the ball = u m/s

So,

Time taken by the ball to reach at the bottom, t is given by,

$t=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}\\t=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 37}{9.8}}\\t=2.747\,s$

So,

Splash is heard after = 2.92 s

So,

Time taken by sound to travel the shortest distance along the hypotenuse of the triangle thus formed is,

t = 2.92 - 2.747

t = 0.172 s

Now,

Distance traveled by sound is given by,

$Distance=343\times 0.172\\Distance=59.02\,m$

So,

In the triangle using the Pythagoras Theorem,

Horizontal distance traveled is,

$D=\sqrt{59.02^{2}-37^{2}}\\D=45.99\,m$

So,

Speed of throwing of ball is given by,

$Distance=Speed\times Time\\45.99=u\times 2.747\\u=16.741\,m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the ball = 16.741 m/s.

(b).

If,

Speed of sound = 331 m/s

So,

Distance traveled by sound is,

$Distance=331\times 0.172\\Distance=56.932\,m$

So,

Distance traveled in the horizontal by ball is,

$Distance=\sqrt{56.932^{2}-37^{2}}\\Distance=43.269\,m$

So,

Speed of the ball thrown is given by,

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\Speed=\frac{43.269}{2.747}\\Speed=15.75\,m/s$

Therefore, the speed of the ball = 15.75 m/s.

3) A dock worker pushes a 72 kg crate up a 2.0 m high,

Vlad [161]

Work done on the crate is 1411.2 J

Explanation:

Work done is defined as the product of force and the distance moved by the object. The unit of work done is in joules and denoted by the symbol J.

Work done = F * d

where F represents the force and d represents the distance moved by the object.

mass = 72 kg , distance moved by the object is given by 2.0 m

Force F = mass * gravity = 72 * 9.8

= 705.6 N =706 N.

Work done = 706 * 2.0 = 1412 J.

What can you infer about the density of two objects if they object remains suspended in the liquid?

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Equal Densities

Explanation:

if the density of the object was greater than that of the liquid, it would sink to the bottom. if the density od the object was lesser than the liquid, it would float :)
