In a parallel portion of a series-parallel circuit, the voltage across the branches can be found by multiplying the sum of the b

ranch currents by the equivalent resistance of the resistors in the parallel portion.True / False.

Answer:

It's true.

Explanation:

It's true. When we connect two resistors in parallel the current is divided between the two in such a way that the sum of the currents on each resistor should be equal to the current on that branch. By finding the equivalent resistance we can use Ohm's law to determine the voltage drop across the resistors. This voltage drop is the same for both, since they're connected in parallel.

Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre
Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

Using the formula

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega

V=IR

Substitute the values

V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V

I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A

I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.

A 34-m length of wire is stretched horizontally between two vertical posts. The wire carries a current of 68 A and experiences a
il63 [147K]

Answer:

7.28×10⁻⁵ T

Explanation:

Applying,

F = BILsin∅............. Equation 1

Where F = magnetic force, B = earth's magnetic field, I = current flowing through the wire, L = Length of the wire, ∅ = angle between the field and the wire.

make B the subject of the equation

B = F/ILsin∅.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 0.16 N, I = 68 A, L = 34 m, ∅ = 72°

Substitute these values into equation 2

B = 0.16/(68×34×sin72°)

B = 0.16/(68×34×0.95)

B = 0.16/2196.4

B = 7.28×10⁻⁵ T

A cow wanders 30 m North, turns 22 degrees right of its original path, and wanders another 40 m. Find its total displacement.
scoundrel [369]

Answer:OB=58.3m

Explanation:

So here cow wanders 30m in north and turns 22 degrees in right side and moves 40m more, as shown in figure given.

now take the starting point as a origin such that cow moves in x-y co-ordinate axis.

As shown in figure length OA is the length when cow moves in north or y direction. Later she takes 22 degrees turn to right and moves 40m more.

So the final displacement is the length of cow from the origin that is length OB.

now co-ordinates of B are [40cos22°,40sin22°+30] i.e [37.084,44.984]

now displacement of cow= length of OB

                                           = \sqrt{[37.084]^{2}+[44.984]^{2}  }

                                           =\sqrt{3398.78}

                                     OB =58.3
