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

What step of the rock cycle happens as the sea stacks are broken down
lesya692 [45]

D. Weathering

The six steps of the rock cycle includes Weathering and Erosion, Transportation, Deposition, Compaction and Cementation. Metamorphism, Rock Melting.

Deposition is the process where rock particles sink at the rivers and become sediment.

Weathering is the process by which wind and water breaks down igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. The process refers to large rocks broken down into smaller pieces and the broken off particles stay in the area.
