In a parallel circuit, voltage is thee same across each component in the circuit. The sum of the currents through each path is equal to the current from the source. However, the resistance cannot be added directly. It is calculated as:
1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 1/Rt = 1/6.8 + 1/9.0 + 1/15
Rt = 3.08 ohms

A 120-meter-long ski ift carries skiers from a station at the foot of a slope to a second station 40 m above. what is the IMA (i
Pepsi [2]
The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) of an inclined plane is given by:
IMA =  \frac{L}{h}
where L is the length of the inclined plane while h is the height.
In our problem, L=120 m and h=40 m. Therefore, the IMA of the ski lift is
IMA= \frac{120 m}{40 m}=3

What is the potential energy at point e when the total mechanical energy is 4900 for the 100 kg moving at 2 m/ s
Leto [7]

Answer:

B. 4700 J

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Mechanical energy = 4900J

Mass = 100kg

Velocity = 2m/s

To find the potential energy;

Mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

First of all, we would determine the kinetic energy of the object;

K.E = ½mv²

K.E = ½*100*2²

K.E = 50*4

K.E = 200 J

Substituting into the equation, we have;

4900 = 200 + P.E

P.E = 4900 - 200

P.E = 4700 Joules

Can sound travel through space? Why or why not?
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

I think sound does not travel at all in space. The vacuum of outer space has essentially zero air. Because sound is just vibrating air, space has no air to vibrate and therefore no sound. If you are sitting in a space ship and another space ship explodes, you would hear nothing.
