Answer:

55.8W

Explanation:

P= V^2/R

R= V^2/P

For series connection

Req= R1+ R2= V^2/310 + V^2/180

R=V^2/P= V^2/310 + V^2/180

But V^2 will cancel out

P= 1/(1/310 + 1/180)

P= 55.8W

Answer:

Explanation:

Given:

Heater 1:

Power, P1 = 310 W

Heater 2:

Power, P2 = 180 W

Power, P = I^2 × R

Equivalent resistance in series, Req

Req = R1 + R2

Where,

R1 = resistance in heater 1

R2 = resistance in heater 2

Total Power, Pt = V^2 × Req

Since they were connected to the same battery of voltage, V. In series connection,

= P1 + P2

P1 = V^2/R1

Req = V^2/P

= V^2/310 + V^2/180

1/Pt = (1/310 + 1/180)

= 0.0087814

Pt = 113.88 W

Every year _______ species go extinct.<br> a. 3<br> b. 72<br> c. 1000<br> d. 20000
Tems11 [23]
Well, the thing is: we don't really know, as we don't even know how many species there are on earth.

If we take a look at the estimates of <span>World Wide Fund for Nature, an organization that works toward combating species extinction, their estimates vary from 200 to 100 000 - but a probable number is 20 000 (d). </span>

While on an ice-fishing trip, you find yourself holding a 10 kg fish but stuck in the middle of
Anna007 [38]

The forward force you exert on the fish and your backward action will allow you to reach the shore.

<h3>Newton's third law of motion</h3>

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.

Fa = -Fb

Let's assume the fish is held in the hook, this will give you the opportunity to throw the fish forward while still holding it.

When the the fish is thrown forward, you will move backwards with an equal force based on Newton's third law. Your backward momentum towards the shore will help to maintain equal linear momentum between you and the fish.

Thus, this forward force of the fish and your backward action will allow you to reach the shore.
