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

Anastasy [175]

Answer:

Acceleration of gravity on Noveria = 4.4 m/s²

Explanation:

Commander Shepard, an N7 spectre for Earth, weighs 799 N on the Earth's surface.

We have weight, W = mg

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81m/s²    

799 = m x 9.81

Mass of Shepard, m = 81.45 kg            

She lands on Noveria, a distant planet in our galaxy, she weighs 356 N.

We have weight, W = mg'

                 356 = 81.45 xg'

Acceleration of gravity on Noveria, g' = 4.4 m/s²

anastassius [24]

The official web site of the Nobel Prize explains that Marie Curie’s chemistry prize was partly for her discovery that the radioactivity of a substance is unaffected when it undergoes a chemical reaction. The discovery implied was that, Radioactivity involves Radioactivity involves only neutrons.

Explanation:

  • The official web site of the Nobel Prize explains that Marie Curie’s chemistry prize was partly for her discovery that the radioactivity of a substance is unaffected when it undergoes a chemical reaction. The discovery implied was that, Radioactivity involves only neutrons.
  • Marie Curie studied about the radiation of all compounds containing the known radioactive elements, including uranium and thorium, which she later discovered that they were radioactive.
  • she discovered the following results,
  • the exact measurement of the strength of the radiation from uranium;
  • the intensity of the radiation was found to be proportional to the amount of uranium or thorium in the compound .
  • the ability to emit radiation is not dependent on the arrangement of the atoms in a molecule;
  • it must be linked to the interior of the atom itself which is a revolutionary discovery.
