A loop circuit has a resistance of R1 and a current of 1.8 A. The current is reduced to 1.6 A when an additional 3.8 Ω resistor

is added in series with R1. What is the value of R1? Assume the internal resistance of the source of emf is zero. Answer in units of Ω.

Answer:

Value of R_1=30.4ohm

Explanation:

We have given

In first case resistance is R_1 and current is 1.8 A

Let the potential difference is v

So 1.8=\frac{v}{R_1}----eqn 1

In second case resistance is R_1+3.8 and current is 1.6 A and potential difference will be as it is a series connection

So 1.6=\frac{v}{R+3.8}----eqn 2

From eqn 1 and eqn 2

1.8R_1=1.6R_1+6.08

R_1=30.4ohm

Answer:

30.4 ohm

Explanation:

Let V be the potential difference.

When R1 is in the circuit.

V = 1.8 x R1 ... (1)

Now new resistance is R = R1 + 3.8

V = 1.6 x (R1 + 3.8) .... (2)

By comparing (1) and (2), we get

1.8 R1 = 1.6 (R1 + 3.8)

1.8 R1 - 1.6 R1 = 6.08

R1 = 30.4 ohm

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Nylon fibres

Explanation:

Nylon fibres are synthetic polymers made of repeating units linked by amide links. It is a thermoplastic silky material which can be remoulded in any shape.

Nylon fibres have the property of strong elastic and light in weight that is why used for making ropes,  combat uniforms, and parachutes. Nylon Fibres are also lustrous and easy to wash so widely used in textile industry for making swimwear, track pants, shorts, and draperies.

Hence, the correct answer is "Nylon fibres".

An inflatable raft (unoccupied) floats down a river at an approximately constant speed of 5.6 m/s. A child on a bridge, 71 m abo
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

21.28 m

Explanation:

height, h = 71 m

velocity of raft, v = 5.6 m/s

let the time taken by the stone to reach to raft is t.

use second equation of motion for stone

h = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^{2}

u = 0 m/s, h = 71 m, g = 9.8 m/s^2

71 = 0 + 0.5 x 9.8 x t^2

t = 3.8 s

Horizontal distance traveled by the raft in time t

d = v x t = 5.6 x 3.8 = 21.28 m

Observe yourself breathing and count the number of times you inhale per second. During each breath you probably inhale 0.66 L of
Pavel [41]

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to Robert Boyle's law where:

PV=nRT

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume

T = Temperature

n = amount of substance

R = Ideal gas constant

We start by calculating the volume of inhaled O_2 for it:

V = 21\% * 0.66L

V = 0.1386L

Our values are given as

P = 1atm

T=293K R = 0.083145kJ*mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Using the equation to find n, we have:

PV=nRT

n = \frac{PV}{RT}

n = \frac{(1)(0.1386)}{(0.0821)(293)}

n = 5.761*10^{-3}mol

Number of molecules would be found through Avogadro number, then

\#Molecules = 5.761*10^{-3}*6.022*10^{23}

\#Molecules = 3.469*10^{21} molecules
