The equivalent resistance when two resistors are connected in series is
the sum of their individual resistances.
The marking on the resistor that says "1000 W" is the rating that tells
how much power the resistor can safely dissipate, without overheating
or exploding. (The 'W' stands for 'Watts'.) It doesn't tell us anything about
their individual resistances. So we don't have enough information to calculate
their series equivalent.
Answer:a device for calibrating thermometers at the boiling point of water at a known height above sea level or for estimating height above sea level by finding the temperature at which water boils.

Answer:
Coefficient of friction between the book and floor is 0.582.
Explanation:
Using the velocity formula;
v^2 = 2as
a = v^2/(2s)
a = 1.6^2/(2*0.9)
a = 2.56/1.8
a = 1.42 m/s^2
the force necessary to give the book the acceleration is
F = ma = 3.5*1.42 (m is mass of the book i.e. 3.5 kg)
F = 4.98 N
The difference in the force is the friction force, which is
Ff = 25 - 4.98 = 20 N
Ff = mgμ
where μ is coefficient of friction and g is acceleration due to gravity that is 9.8 m/s^2
μ = Ff/mg
μ = 20/(3.5*9.81)
μ = 0.582
Coefficient of friction between the book and floor is 0.582.
Answer:
R = 8.01 m
Explanation:
We can solve this problem using the projectile launch equations. The jump length is the throw range
R = v₀² sin 2θ / g
in the exercise they give us the initial speed of 9.14 m / s and in the launch angle 35º
let's calculate
R = 9.14² sin (2 35) / 9.8
R = 8.01 m
this is the jump length
The emf induced = B*l*v where B is the flux density, l the length of the conductor and v the velocity of the conductor. In the given case B = 0.035 N/amp.meter, l = 0.86 and v = 6 m/sec
emf = 0.035*0.86*6 = 0.1806 v ≈ 0.18 v
choice: D
