If a closed series circuit has a voltage of 12 V and R1 = 4 Ω and R2 = 2 Ω, what is the current running through R1 and R2?

Physics

Total resistance=R1+ R2= 6Ω
Voltage=12v
Current =\frac{voltage}{resistance}
Current= 2A
In a series circuit, equal current passes through every resistance.
Answer is option A

Calculate the force that the 4kg block exerts on the 10kg block
Kryger [21]
Acceleration=force/mass=28/(10+4)=2m/s^2

force10kg=ma=10*2
force4kg=ma=(10*2)=20
the4 kg is pushing against the 10kg block

vf=vi+at
-10=20*28/14 * t
t=30/2=15sec

I'm completely lost in physics, the Kinematics and dynamics units.. My exam is coming up.. If a biker travelling at 6.4m/s sees
Alexeev081 [22]
D=rt
when biker A catches biker B, the time they've been riding is the same, so 
t=t, or d/r=d/r
the rates are 6.4 and 4.7, so
d/6.4=d/4.7
biker B is 34m ahead, so 
(d+34)/6.4=d/4.7
multiply both sides by 6.4*4.7:
4.7(d+34)=6.4d
4.7d+=6.4d+159.8
1.7d=159.8
d=94 meters

Another way to think of it is that biker A gains 1.7 meters on B every second (6.4-4.7=1.5), so the time it'll take for him to gain 34 meters is 34/1.7=20 seconds. In that time, biker B travels 4.7*20=94 meters

A train at rest emits a sound at a frequency of 1057 Hz. An observer in a car travels away from the sound source at a speed of 2
il63 [147K]

Answer:

993.52 Hz

Explanation:

The frequency of sound emitted by the stationery train is 1057 Hz.

The car travels away from the train at 20.6 m/s.

The frequency the observer hears is given by the formula:

f_o = \frac{v - v_o}{v}f

where v = velocity of sound = 343 m/s

vo = velocity of observer

f = frequency from source

This phenomenon is known as Doppler's effect.

Therefore:

f_o = \frac{343 - 20.6}{343} * 1057\\ \\f_o = 322.4 / 343 * 1057\\\\f_o = 993.52 Hz

The frequency heard by the observer is 993.52 Hz.

Two people are sitting on wheeled chairs 1 metre apart. Person A is holding a 2kg ball. Person A throws the ball to Person. What
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

B - Person A's chair rolls backwards.

Explanation:

This can be seen simply through the Conservation of Momentum. When the ball is thrown to be, the ball's momentum(+m) is transfererd to B, so B's chair moves forward(think about it - it makes sense, doesn't it?), meaning A's chair moves backwards.

So, B.
