Answer:

The total resistance is 750 [ohm]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must remember that when we have resistors connected in series, these are added each by the resistance value, in this way we have:

Rt = 15 * 50 = 750 [ohm]

Could You Take 2 Elements From The Periodic Table Of Elements, and possibly make one of other 116 elements that are on the table
LekaFEV [45]
That's what stars do all the time. 
For example, in the sun (and MOST other stars), deep down in the center
of the sun's core, two atoms of Hydrogen get squashed together so hard
that they blend into one atom of Helium AND release some energy. 
That's where the sun's energy all comes from.  It's called "nuclear fusion". 
It needs tremendous temperature and pressure to happen.  We know how
to do it, but we can't control it.  So far, the only thing we've ever been able
to use it for is Hydrogen bombs.   

There are 92 elements on the Periodic Table that are found in nature,
plus another 20 or so that have been made in the laboratory, but only
a few atoms of them.

A spherical asteroid of average density would have a mass of 8.7×1013kg if its radius were 2.0 km. 1. If you and your spacesuit
Law Incorporation [45]

1. 0.16 N

The weight of a man on the surface of asteroid is equal to the gravitational force exerted on the man:

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M=8.7\cdot 10^{13}kg is the mass of the asteroid

m = 100 kg is the mass of the man

r = 2.0 km = 2000 m is the distance of the man from the centre of the asteroid

Substituting, we find

F=(6.67\cdot 10^{-11}m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})\frac{(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)(110 kg)}{(2000 m)^2}=0.16 N

2. 1.7 m/s

In order to stay in orbit just above the surface of the asteroid (so, at a distance r=2000 m from its centre), the gravitational force must be equal to the centripetal force

m\frac{v^2}{r}=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where v is the minimum speed required to stay in orbit.

Re-arranging the equation and solving for v, we find:

v=\sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}=\sqrt{\frac{(6.67\cdot 10^{-11} m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2})(8.7\cdot 10^{13} kg)}{2000 m}}=1.7 m/s

What is gravity?what is one solar day?<br>​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

<h2>Gravity :</h2><h3>the force that attracts a body towards the centre of the earth, or towards any other physical body having mass.</h3>

<h2>Solar day</h2><h3>A solar day is the time it takes for the Earth to rotate about its axis so that the Sun appears in the same position in the sky.</h3><h2> or</h2><h3>It is the time between successive meridian transits of the sun at a particular place.</h3>

Two skaters collide and grab on to each other on frictionless ice. One of them, of mass 77.0 kg, is moving to the right at 4.00
Alex777 [14]

Answer:3.31m/s², to the right

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of momentum of a body, change in momentum of bodies before collision is equal to the change in momentum after collision.

Momentum = mass × velocity

M1 and M2 be the masses of the first and second skaters respectively

Let u1 and u2 be the velocities of the first and second skaters respectively.

v be their common velocity after collision

M1 = 77kg M2 = 66kg u1 = 4m/s² u2 = 2.5m/s²

According to the law we have

M1u1 + M2u2 = (M1+M2)v

77(4) + 66(2.5) = (77+66)v

308 + 165 = 143v

V = 473/143

V = 3.31m/s²

Their velocity after collision will become 3.31m/s²

They will both move towards the right after collision because the mass of the body moving to the right is higher than the other mass and the mass is also moving at a higher velocity than the other.
