For resistors in series in a DC circuit, the potential difference is proportional to the resistance.

The voltage V across the 7.1 ohm resistor can be found from the proportion
   V/7.1 = 12/4.8
   V = 7.1*12/4.8 = 17.75

The potential difference at the battery terminals is the sum of the potential differences across the two series resistors.
   Vbatt = 17.75 V + 12 V
   Vbatt = 29.75 V

How an application of atmospheric device work?example siphon​
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

A practical siphon, operating at typical atmospheric pressures and tube heights, works because gravity pulling down on the taller column of liquid leaves reduced pressure at the top of the siphon (formally, hydrostatic pressure when the liquid is not moving).

I hope it's helpful!

If it takes a ball dropped from rest 2.261 s to fall to the ground, from what height H was it released? Express your answer in m
algol [13]

Answer:

Height, H = 25.04 meters

Explanation:

Initially the ball is at rest, u = 0

Time taken to fall to the ground, t = 2.261 s

Let H is the height from which the ball is released. It can be calculated using the second equation of motion as :

H=ut+\dfrac{1}{2}at^2

Here, a = g

H=\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2            

H=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8\times (2.261)^2

H = 25.04 meters

So, the ball is released form a height of 25.04 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
