Two identical batteries, each with an emf of 18 V and an internal resistance of 1 :, are wired in parallel by connecting their p

ositive terminals together and connecting their negative terminals together. The combination is then wired across a 4-: resistor. The current in the 4-: resistor is:

Answer:

I = 4 A

Explanation:

When the batteries are connected in parallel, the voltage is the same as the voltage of each battery, but the internal resistance is less, in general we can assume that the internal resistance is also in parallel.

1 / $r_{eq}$ = 1 / r₁ + 1 / r₂ = 2 / r = 2/1

r_{eq} = 0.5 ohm

The current in the resistor is

V = I R + I r_{eq}

I = V / R + r_{eq}

I = 18 / (4 +0.5)

I = 4 A

The magnitude of Earth’s magnetic field is about 0.5 gauss near Earth’s surface. What’s the maximum possible magnetic force on a

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

$F = 1.5 \times 10^{-16} N$

this force is $1.68 \times 10^{13}$ times more than the gravitational force

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy of the electron is given as

$KE = 1 keV$

$KE = 1 \times 10^3 (1.6 \times 10^{-19}) J$

$KE = 1.6 \times 10^{-16} J$

now the speed of electron is given as

$KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

now we have

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2 KE}{m}}$

$v = 1.87 \times 10^7 m/s$

now the maximum force due to magnetic field is given as

$F = qvB$

$F = (1.6\times 10^{-19})(1.87 \times 10^7)(0.5 \times 10^{-4})$

$F = 1.5 \times 10^{-16} N$

Now if this force is compared by the gravitational force on the electron then it is

$\frac{F}{F_g} = \frac{1.5 \times 10^{-16}}{9.1 \times 10^{-31} (9.8)}$

$\frac{F}{F_g} = 1.68 \times 10^{13}$

so this force is $1.68 \times 10^{13}$ times more than the gravitational force

Calculate the rate of heat conduction through a layer of still air that is 1 mm thick, with an area of 1 m, for a temperature of

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The rate of heat conduction through the layer of still air is 517.4 W

Explanation:

Given:

Thickness of the still air layer (L) = 1 mm

Area of the still air = 1 m

Temperature of the still air ( T) = 20°C

Thermal conductivity of still air (K) at 20°C = 25.87mW/mK

Rate of heat conduction (Q) = ?

To determine the rate of heat conduction through the still air, we apply the formula below.

$Q =\frac{KA(\delta T)}{L}$

$Q =\frac{25.87*1*20}{1}$

Q = 517.4 W

Therefore, the rate of heat conduction through the layer of still air is 517.4 W

A ball is thrown straight upward and rises to a maximum

Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Explanation:

As we know that the ball is projected upwards so that it will reach to maximum height of 16 m

so we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

here we know that

$v_f = 0$

also we have

$a = -9.81 m/s^2$

so we have

$0 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)(16)$

$v_i = 17.72 m/s$

Now we need to find the height where its speed becomes half of initial value

so we have

$v_f = 0.5 v_i$

now we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$(0.5v_i)^2 - v_i^2 = 2(-9.81)h$

$-0.75v_i^2 = -19.62 h$

$0.75(17.72)^2 = 19.62 h$

$h = 12 m$
