Answer:
The resistors will be in parallel to produce a net resistance of 4ohm and current in 20 ohm resistor will be 0.5A and 5ohm resistor will be 2A.
Explanation:
We are given 10 voltage power source and we have two Resistors with resistance of 20 ohm and 5ohm.
We need to find the orientation in which these two resistors would be arranged so that the circuit could get a current of 2.5Ampere.
Using ohm's law we have
V = I*R
V= voltage
I= current
R= resistance
10 = 2.5*R
R = 10/2.5 = 4ohm
that means we need a total of 4ohm resistance from these two resistors.
since the net Resistance(4ohm) is lower than the smallest resistance(5ohm) available that means the orientation of the resistors will be in parallel.
R(net) =4ohm
Now the orientation of the resistors are in parallel so the current will be divided.
we know that the current will divide in opposite manner the arm which provides more resistance less current will flow from there and vice versa.
We know that the voltage in parallel remains same
In 20 ohm resistance
again using ohms law
V = i1*R1
10 = i1*20
i1 = 0.5A
in 5ohm resistor
V=i2*R2
10 = I2*5
i2 =2A
and i1+i2 = 0.5+2= 2.5A which means our calculation is correct.
Therefore the resistors will be in parallel to produce a net resistance of 4ohm and current in 20 ohm resistor will be 0.5A and 5ohm resistor will be 2A.
The kinetic energy of the small ball before the collision is
KE = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²
= (1/2) (2 kg) (1.5 m/s)
= (1 kg) (2.25 m²/s²)
= 2.25 joules.
Now is a good time to review the Law of Conservation of Energy:
Energy is never created or destroyed.
If it seems that some energy disappeared,
it actually had to go somewhere.
And if it seems like some energy magically appeared,
it actually had to come from somewhere.
The small ball has 2.25 joules of kinetic energy before the collision.
If the small ball doesn't have a jet engine on it or a hamster inside,
and does not stop briefly to eat spinach, then there won't be any
more kinetic energy than that after the collision. The large ball
and the small ball will just have to share the same 2.25 joules.
Answer:
c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C
Explanation:
Specific heat capacity:
"Specific heat capacity is the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of a substance per unit of mass. The specific heat capacity of a material is a physical property."
Use this equation:
mcΔT = ( mw c + mAl cAl ) ΔT'
Rearranging the equation to find the specific heat (c) you get this:
c = (( mw c + mAl cAl ) ΔT') / (mΔT)
c = (( 0.285 (4186) + (0.15)(900)) (32 -25.1)) / ((0.125) (95 - 32))
c = 1163.34 J/kg.°C
Via half-life equation we have:
Where the initial amount is 50 grams, half-life is 4 minutes, and time elapsed is 12 minutes. By plugging those values in we get:
There is 6.25 grams left of Ra-229 after 12 minutes.
