Answer:

6.62 m

About 44.14 grapefruits lined in a single line would be the length of the diameter of star Aldebaran

Explanation:

First we know,

Diameter of the Sun - 1.39 million km (Ds)

Diameter of Aldbaran - 61.40 million km (Da)

Thus,

\frac{Da}{Ds} =  \frac{61.40}{1.39} ≈ 44.14

We know that in this scale the size of the sun is that of a grapefruit.

The average diameter of a grapefruit is about 15cm

Thus  Ds in this scale is 15cm

Thus Da in this scale,

Da = Ds *44.14

Da = 0.15 * 44.14 ≈ 6.62 m

Thus the diameter of Aldebaran in this scale is 6.62 m

Two resistors have resistances R(smaller) and R(larger), where R(smaller) < R(larger). When the resistors are connected in se
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

R = 9.85 ohm , r = 0.85 ohm

Explanation:

Let the two resistances by r and R.

when they are connected in series:

V = 12 V

i = 1.12 A

The equivalent resistance when they are connected in series is

Rs = r + R

So, By using Ohm's law

V = i Rs

Rs = V / i = 12 / 1.12 = 10.7 ohm

R + r = 10.7 ohm    .... (1)

When they are connected in parallel:

V = 12 V

i = 9.39 A

The equivalent resistance when they are connected in parallel

R_{p}=\frac{R+r}{rR}

So, By using Ohm's law

V = i Rp

Rp = V / i = 12 / 9.39 = 1.28 ohm

\frac{R+r}{rR}=1.28    .... (2)

by substituting the value of R + r from equation (1) in equation (2), we get

r R = 8.36 ..... (3)

R-r = \sqrt{\left ( R+r \right )^{2}-4rR}

R-r = \sqrt{\left ( 10.7 \right )^{2}-4\times 8.36}=9 ..... (4)

By solvng equation (1) and (4), we get

R = 9.85 ohm , r = 0.85 ohm

Calculate the mass of air in a room 5m × 4m ×2m given that the density of air is 1.3kgm-²​
valentina_108 [34]

32.5 kg of air

Explanation:

To calculate the mass of the air, we use the density formula:

density = mass / volume

mass = density × volume

density of air = 1.3 kg/m³

volume = 5 × 3 × 2 = 25 m³

mass of the air = 1.3 kg/m³ × 25 m³

mass of the air = 32.5 kg
