Find the equivalent resistance Req between terminals a and b if terminals c and d are open and again if terminals c and d are sh

orted together. (Round the final answers to two decimal places.) With terminals c-d open, Req = Ω. With terminals c-d shorted, Req = Ω.

Answer:

351 ohm

720 ohm

Explanation:

When c and d are open:

Terminals c and d are open.. If you  redraw the circuit as below, you can see that the two resistors in the first  column are in parallel as, they are connected together at both pairs of terminals  (due to the short).

Hence, we have a pair of parallel resistors:

Req1 = (R1*R2)/ (R1 + R2) = 360*540/(360+540) = 216 ohms

Req2 = (R3*R4)/ (R3 + R4) = 180*540/(180+540) = 135 ohms

Now these two sets are  in series with another Hence,

Req = Req1 + Req2 = 216 + 135 = 351 ohms

Answer: 351 ohms

When c and d are shorted:

The current will flow through the least resistant path naturally from resistors R3 and R1 or R4.

Both of these resistor lie in a single path placing the resistors in series to one another, hence

Req = R3 + R1 = 180 + 540 = 720 ohms

Answer:720 ohms

Typically during thunderstorms most lightning strikes carry a negative electric charge; only a few carry a positive charge. Thun
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:<em> Option (D) is correct.</em>

Explanation:

Considering the hypothesis elaborated in this comprehension, it's given that areas that tend to lie near forest fires usually have extra positive strikes since smoke carries positively charged particles. In rudimentary term, this states that occurrence of positively charged particles will result in extra positive strikes.

Option (D) states that occurrence of extra positive strikes will be there even weeks after the charge of smoke particles have been dissociated.

Therefore this option, most seriously undermines the hypothesis.

Additional Problem: A simple pendulum, consisting of a string (of negligible mass) of length L with a small mass m at the end, i
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

a)   v = √ 2gL  abd  b)  θ = 45º

Explanation:

a) for this part we use the law of conservation of energy,

Highest starting point

       Em₀ = U = mg h

Final point. Lower

       Em₂ = ½ m v²

      Em₀ = Em₂

      m g h = ½ m v²

      v = √2g h

      v = √ 2gL

b) the definition of power is the relationship between work and time, but work is the product of force by displacement

     P = W / t = F. d ​​/ t = F. v

If we use Newton's second law, with one axis of the tangential reference system to the trajectory and the other perpendicular, in the direction of the rope, the only force we have to break down is the weight

     sin θ = Wt / W

     Wt = W sin θ

This force is parallel to the movement and also to the speed, whereby the scalar product is reduced to the ordinary product

     P = F v

The equation that describes the pendulum's motion is

    θ = θ₀ cos (wt)

Let's replace

    P = (W sin θ) θ₀ cos (wt)

    P = W θ₀ sint θ cos (wt)

We use the equation of rotational kinematics

    θ = wt

    P = Wθ₀ sin θ cos θ

Let's use

   sin 2θ = 2 sin θ cos θ

   P = Wθ₀/2 sin 2θ

This expression is maximum when the sine has a value of one (sin 2θ = 1), which occurs for 90º,

    2θ = 90

    θ = 45º

Mariana [72]

Answer:

0m/s²

Explanation:

A body with a constant speed always has a zero acceleration

Hence if Korey ran around the track at 10 meters per second and had a constant speed and did not change directions, then his acceleration will be 0m/s² not considering his initial speed
