1:   only half  the outlet is switched  and the lamp is in the  other half
2:  the lamp is turned off.
3:   The  light bulb  is burned out
4:  the switch might be broken
5:   the fuse   might be blown
6: the electricity might be off

Three resistors are wired in parallel with a battery. Two of the resistors have resistances of 38.7 Q/ and 89.5 Q. The current i
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

214.9 \Omega

Explanation:

The three resistors are connected in parallel: this means that the potential difference across each resistor is the same as the voltage of the battery. This can be calculated using the information about the 38.7 \Omega resistor: in fact, since we know its resistance and the current flowing through it (0.155 A), we can find the potential difference across this resistor, which is equal to the voltage of the battery:

V=IR=(0.155 A)(38.7 \Omega)=6.0 V

We also know the total current in the circuit, 0.250 A. This means that we can find the total resistance of the circuit, using Ohm's law:

R_{eq}=\frac{V}{I}=\frac{6.0 V}{0.250 A}=24 \Omega

So now we now the total resistance and the resistance of two of the 3 resistors; therefore, we can find the resistance of the 3rd resistor:

\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}\\\frac{1}{R_3}=\frac{1}{R_{eq}}-\frac{1}{R_1}-\frac{1}{R_2}=\frac{1}{24 \Omega}-\frac{1}{38.7\Omega}-\frac{1}{89.5\Omega}=0.00465 \Omega^{-1}\\R_3=\frac{1}{0.00465 \Omega^{-1}}=214.9 \Omega

A certain corner of a room is selected as the origin of a rectangular coordinate system. If a fly is crawling on an adjacent wal
Helga [31]

Answer:

2.59 m

Explanation:

Coordinates of origin = (0, 0)

Coordinates of Point p where the fly reach = (2.3 m, 1.2 m)

Use the distance formula of coordinates to find the distance between the origin and the point P.

d=\sqrt{\left ( x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}+\left ( y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}}

d=\sqrt{\left ( 2.3- 0 \right )^{2}+\left ( 1.2-0 \right )^{2}}

d = 2.59 m

Thus, the distance between the origin and the point P is 2.59 m.
