For the circuit shown

a.the total resistance   = R = 35.9 Ω

b. when total current = 2 A, then total voltage  =  V = 71.8 V

c.the current through resistor of resistance 56Ω = I₁ = 1.28 A  

  the current through resistor of resistance 100Ω = I₂ = 0.72 A

Explanation:

a)

Resistors can be connected in series or in parallel. For series combination Resultant resistance of the circuit is given by

R = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ +...........+Rₙ

But is our case as shown in the picture, Both the resistors are connected in parallel and for parallel combination resultant, resultant resistance of the circuit is given by

(1 / R) = (1 / R₁) + (1 / R₂) + (1 / R₃) +.......+ (1 / Rₙ)

So

1 / R = (1 / R₁) + (1 / R₂)

Let

R₁ = 56Ω and R₂ = 100Ω

1 / R = 1/56 + 1/100

1 / R = 39 / 1400

R = 1400 / 39

R = 35.9 Ω

b)

Part b can be solved by Ohm's Law Which is stated as "The current flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends provided the physical state such as temperature of the conductor (circuit) does not change."

Mathematically

V ∝ I

V = IR

Where V is the potential difference across the ends of the conductor and I is the Current flowing through the circuit. R is the resistance of the circuit.

Given data:

Total current = I = 2 A

Resistance = R = 35.9 Ω

Voltage = ?

By Ohm's Law

V = IR

V = 2*35.9

V = 71.8 V

c)

To solve current through each resistor, We can use current division formula which is given as

I₁ = I[ R₂ / (R₁ + R₂) ]

I₂ = I[ R₁ / (R₁ + R₂) ]

Also we can take Voltage across each resistor equal to V = 71.8 V because Potential difference across each resistors connected in parallel remain same . And by using Ohm's law divide the value of potential difference with the value of respective resistor to find the current through each resistors.

By Ohm's Law

V = IR

I = V / R

I₁ = 71.8 / 56

I₁ = 1.28 A

I₂ = V / R

I₂ = 71.8 / 100

I₂ = 0.72 A

Which statement best describes how waves carry energy?
ratelena [41]

Correct answer choice is :


A) Energy moves from one place to another through the wave.


Explanation:


Waves can carry energy over a range without moving matter the complete distance. For instance, an ocean wave can move many kilometers without the water itself traveling many kilometers. The water moves up and down a motion recognized as a disturbance. A wave brings its energy without carrying matter. Waves are observed to travel through an ocean or lake, yet the water perpetually reverts to its rest state. Energy is carried through the medium, yet the water particles are not carried.

puteri [66]

The speed will be 0.2 m/s and the velocity will be 0 m/s.

Speed = Total Distance / Total time

We have given total distance as ( 50 + 95 ) metres and total time as 12 minutes or we can say 720 seconds.

Speed = 145/ 720 m/s

Speed = 0.2 m/s

Velocity = Total Displacement / Total time

As the initial and final is the home, hence the net displacement is 0 in that case.

In this case also the total time we have given is 12 minutes or we can say 720 seconds.

Velocity = 0 / 720 m/s

Velocity = 0 m/s

So to conclude with we can say that the speed is 0.2 m/s and the velocity is 0 m/s.

fredd [130]

Answer:

156.67 m/s

0.45676 times the speed of sound

Explanation:

Distance from the ground = 23.5 km = 23500 m

Time taken by the blast waves to reach the ground = 2\ minutes\ 30\ seconds=2\times 60+30=150\ s

Spedd of the wave would be

Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}\\\Rightarrow v_b=\dfrac{23500}{150}\\\Rightarrow v-b=156.67\ m/s

The velocity of the blast wave is 156.67 m/s

v = Velocity of sound = 343 m/s

\dfrac{v_b}{v}=\dfrac{156.67}{343}\\\Rightarrow v_b=v\dfrac{156.67}{343}\\\Rightarrow v_b=0.45676v

The blast wave is 0.45676 times the speed of sound

Which layer of the atmosphere has the highest density?
fomenos

Answer:

The Troposphere is the lowermost portion of Earth’s atmosphere. It is the densest layer of the atmosphere and contains approximately 75 percent of the mass of the atmosphere and almost all the water vapor and aerosol. The troposphere extends from the Earth’s surface up to the tropopause where the stratosphere begins.
