With the switch open, roughly what must be the resistance of the resistor on the right for the current out of the battery to be

the same as when the switch is closed (and the resistances of the two resistors are 20 Ω and 10 Ω)?
A) 7ΩB) 15ΩC) 30ΩD) 5Ω

Answer:

The resistance must be 6.67\Omega

Solution:

Resistance, R_{1} = 20\Omega

Resistance, R_{2} = 10\Omega

For the current to be the same when the switch is open or closed, the resistances must be connected in parallel as current is distributed in parallel with the same voltage across the circuit:

Thus in parallel:

\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_{1}} + \frac{1}{R_{2}}

\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{20} + \frac{1}{10}

R_{eq} = 6.67\ \Omega

What best explains whether bromine (Br) or neon (Ne) is more likely to form a covalent bond? On left, a purple circle labeled Br
blondinia [14]

Answer:

I believe the answer is Bromine forms covalent bonds because it has many electron shells, but neon has only two electron shells and is tightly bound to its electrons.

Explanation:

valence electrons are the outermost shell, so when you go through keeping that in mind it helps you find the right answer

What is the coefficient of friction between the skates and the ice?
natta225 [31]

The coefficient of friction is 0.051

Explanation:

The motion of the skater is a uniformly accelerated motion, therefore we can use the following suvat equation:

v^2 - u^2 = 2as

where:

v = 0 is the final velocity of the skater (he comes to a stop)

u = 10.0 m/s is his initial velocity

a is the acceleration

s=1.0\cdot 10^2 m = 100 m is the distance he travels before stopping

Solving for a, we find the acceleration of the skater:

a=\frac{v^2-u^2}{2s}=\frac{0-10.0^2}{2(100)}=-0.5 m/s^2

We also know that the net force acting on the skater is the force of friction, therefore we can write (Newton's second law of motion):

F= ma = -\mu mg

where

-\mu mg is the force of friction

m is the mass of the skater

\mu is the coefficient of friction

a=-0.5 m/s^2 is the acceleration

g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity

Solving for \mu, we find the coefficient of friction:

\mu = -\frac{a}{g}=-\frac{-0.5}{9.8}=0.051

What is the relationship between the speed of an object and its kinetic energy?
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

For the purposes of your question, we can think of speed and velocity as being the same thing. Therefore, the kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If there is a twofold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.
