When resistors are connected in series, they act like
a single resistor whose resistance is their sum. 

100 ohms and 400 ohms, connected in series, look like
a single resistor of 500 ohms.

           Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

                        = (60 volts) / (500 ohms) = 0.12 A.

Current is measured by connecting a meter in series
with an energized component.  In other words, a break
is made in the circuit, the meter is connected in the break,
and the current to be measured literally flows through the meter.</span>

A proton moves with a speed of 1.00 x 106 m/s perpendicular to a magnetic field, B. As a result, the proton moves in circle of r
Softa [21]

Answer:

0.0109 m ≈ 10.9 mm

Explanation:

proton speed = 1 * 10^6 m/s

radius in which the proton moves = 20 m

<u>determine the radius of the circle in which an electron would move </u>

we will apply the formula for calculating the centripetal force for both proton and electron ( Lorentz force formula)

For proton :

Mp*V^2 / rp  = qp *VB   ∴  rp = Mp*V / qP*B    ---------- ( 1 )

For electron:

re = Me*V/ qE * B -------- ( 2 )

Next: take the ratio of equations 1 and 2

re / rp = Me / Mp                                 ( note: qE = qP = 1.6 * 10^-19 C )

∴ re ( radius of the electron orbit )

= ( Me / Mp ) rp

= ( 9.1 * 10^-31 / 1.67 * 10^-27 ) 20

= ( 5.45 * 10^-4 ) * 20

= 0.0109 m ≈ 10.9 mm

If you drop a rock off a cliff and it hits the ground 3 seconds later how tall is that cliff
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Basic kinematics, negating drag and assuming ideal conditions, we use the equation:

d=vi*t+1/2*a*t^2

Since vi is 0 (we know this because you’re dropping it, not throwing it)…

…and the only acceleration acting on it is gravity, a=9.8 m/s^2…

…we get

d=1/2(9.8)(5)^2

Explanation:

Some quick mental math tells us that this is about 125 m.

Plugging it in, we find it to be 122.5 m.
