Answer:
The magnitude of acceleration is reduced.
Explanation:
Force is defined as push or pull
The force is said to be<em> balance force </em>if the force are equal in size but opposite in direction. ie the object does not move or move with constant speed.
The force are to be<em> unbalanced force </em>if the force cause change in motion. ie the object has force greater than zero and has acceleration.
According to <em>Newton second law of motion </em>, acceleration depends on force acting on the object and mass of object.
F=ma
a=
When unbalanced force act on the mass of object it reduces magnitude of acceleration without changing the direction.
Answer:
2.0 m/s/s
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object is the rate of change of velocity of the object.
Mathematically, it is given by:
where
u is the initial velocity
v is the final velocity
t is the time taken for the velocity to change from u to v
Acceleration is a vector, so it has both a magnitude and a direction.
For the runner in this problem, we have:
u = 0 is the initial velocity (he starts from rest)
v = 8.0 m/s is the final velocity
t = 4.0 s is the time taken
Substituting, we find
Hi there! :)
Reference the diagram below for clarification.
1.
We must begin by knowing the following rules for resistors in series and parallel.
In series:
In parallel:
We can begin solving for the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel using the parallel rules.
Now that we have reduced the parallel resistors to a 'single' resistor, we can add their equivalent resistance with the other resistor in parallel (15 Ohm) using series rules:
2.
We can use Ohm's law to solve for the current in the circuit.
3.
For resistors in series, both resistors receive the SAME current.
Therefore, the 15Ω resistor receives 6A, and the parallel COMBO (not each individual resistor, but the 5Ω equivalent when combined) receives 6A.
In this instance, since both of the resistors in parallel are equal, the current is SPLIT EQUALLY between the two. (Current in parallel ADDS UP). Therefore, an even split between 2 resistors of 6 A is <u>3A for each 10Ω resistor</u>.
4.
Since the 15.0 Ω resistor receives 6A, we can use Ohm's Law to solve for voltage.
