Answer:

Option C. 70 Ω

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Resistor (R) = 20 Ω

From diagram given ABOVE, we observed the following

1. R and R are in parallel connections.

2. 2R and 2R are in parallel connections.

3. 4R and 4R are in parallel connections.

Next, we shall determine the equivalent resistance in each case.

This is illustrated below:

1. Determination of the equivalent resistance for R and R parallel connections.

R = 20 Ω

Equivalent R = (R×R) /(R+R)

Equivalent R = (20 × 20) /(20 + 20)

Equivalent R = 400/40

Equivalent R = 10 Ω

2. Determination of the equivalent resistance for 2R and 2R parallel connections.

R = 20 Ω

2R = 2 × 20 = 40 Ω

Equivalent 2R = (2R×2R) /(2R+2R)

Equivalent 2R = (40 × 40) /(40 + 40)

Equivalent 2R = 1600/80

Equivalent 2R = 20 Ω

3. Determination of the equivalent resistance for 4R and 4R parallel connections.

R = 20 Ω

4R = 4 × 20 = 80 Ω

Equivalent 4R = (4R×4R) /(4R+4R)

Equivalent 4R = (80 × 80) /(80 + 80)

Equivalent 4R = 6400/160

Equivalent 4R = 40 Ω

Thus, the equivalence of R, 2R and 4R are now in series connections. We can obtain the equivalent resistance in the circuit as follow:

Equivalent of R = 10 Ω

Equivalent of 2R = 20 Ω

Equivalent of 4R = 40 Ω

Equivalent =?

Equivalent = Equivalent of (R + 2R + 4R)

Equivalent = 10 + 20 + 40

Equivalent = 70 Ω

Therefore, the equivalent resistance between point A and B is 70 Ω.

HELP ASAP <br> Describe when contact metamorphism occurs?
diamong [38]

Contact metamorphism occurs adjacent to igneous intrusions and results from high temperatures associated with the igneous intrusion. Since only a small area surrounding the intrusion is heated by the magma, metamorphism is restricted to the zone surrounding the intrusion, called a metamorphic or contact aureole

A 10cm long wire is pulled along a U-shaped conducting rail in a perpendicular magnetic field. The total resistance of the wire
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

a)  v=4.0m/s

b)  B=2.958T

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Wire Length l=10cm=>0.10m

Resistance R=0.35

Force F=1.0N

Power P=4.0W

a)

Generally the equation for Power is mathematically given by

P=Fv

Therefore

v=\frac{P}{F}

v=\frac{4.0}{1.0}

v=4.0m/s

b)

Generally the equation for Magnetic Field is mathematically given by

B=\frac{\sqrt{PR}}{vl}

B=\frac{\sqrt{4*0.35}}{4*0.10}

B=2.958T

A wheel that is rotating at 33.3 rad/s is given an angular acceleration of 2.15 rad/s 2. Through what angle has the wheel turned
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The angle through which the wheel turned is 947.7 rad.

Explanation:

initial angular velocity, \omega _i = 33.3 rad/s

angular acceleration, α = 2.15 rad/s²

final angular velocity, \omega_f = 72 rad/s

angle the wheel turned, θ = ?

The angle through which the wheel turned can be calculated by applying the following kinematic equation;

\omega_f^2 = \omega_i^2 + 2\alpha \theta\\\\\theta = \frac{\omega_f^2\   -\  \omega_i^2}{2\alpha } \\\\\theta = \frac{(72)^2\   -\  (33.3)^2}{2(2.15)}\\\\\theta = 947.7 \ rad

Therefore, the angle through which the wheel turned is 947.7 rad.

What is E=m² the famous theory of albert einstien?
pshichka [43]
Actually it's E = mc^{2} and it says that the energy of an object (E) is equal to the mass (m) of the object multiplied with the squared speed of light (c^{2}). This theory says that mass can be turned into energy and energy can be turned into mass. This is one of Einstein's theory of relativity.
