Answer:

12 ohms

Explanation:

The five 60 Ohms resistance can be represented as follows:

R1 = 60 Ohms

R2 = 60 Ohms

R3= 60 Ohms

R4 = 60 Ohms

R5 = 60 Ohms

Rt =?

Since they are in parallel connections, the equivalent resistance (Rt) can be calculated as follows :

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + 1/R4 + 1/R5

1/Rt = 1/60 + 1/60 + 1/60 + 1/60 + 1/60

1/Rt = ( 1+1+1+1+1)/60

1/Rt = 5/60

1/Rt = 1/12

Cross multiply to express in linear form

Rt = 12 ohms

Therefore the equivalent resistance is 12ohms

Answer:

1) the two objects reach the floor at the same time.

2)the book reaches the floor much earlier than the foil

In conclusion, the difference in motion between the two systems subjected to the same acceleration depends on the weight of the body and friction force, when the body has less weight, the friction of the air affects it more

Explanation:

This interesting experiment has the following results

1) first case. Sheet on top of book

In this case the two objects reach the floor at the same time.

This shows that the acceleration in the two objects is the same and we call it the acceleration of gravity.

The speed of the body increases as it goes down linearly.

This occurs because the book that receives air resistance is much heavier, so the resistance has almost no effect on its movement, the sheet does not have the air resistance because it goes down next to the book.

2) second case. Book and sheet next to each other.

In this case the book reaches the floor much earlier than the foil.

This is because the resisting force of the air has almost no effect on the book and its movement is little affected by this force.

In the case of the blade, it has very little weight, therefore as its speed increases, the resistance force of the air rapidly equals the weight of the blade.

W_sheet - fr = 0

so after this, since the acceleration is zero, it goes down at constant speed, this speed is called the terminal velocity.

Light of wavelength 630 nm falls on two slits and produces an interference pattern in which the third-order bright red fringe is

goblinko [34]

Answer:

d $\frac{x}{l}$ = m× λ⇒ d = λ ×m×l / x

= 630× $10^{-9}$ m × 3×3m/ 45× $10^{-3}$ m

= 1.26× $10^{-4}$ m

Explanation:

the above calculation is based on Young’s double slit experiment where the two slits provide two coherent light sources which results either constructive interference or destructive interference when passing through a double slit.

What is the average acceleration of a tennis ball that has an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s [E] and a final velocity of 7.3 m/s [W

Marizza181 [45]

Given :

The average acceleration of a tennis ball that has an initial velocity of 6.0 m/s.

and a final velocity of 7.3 m/s.

It is in contact with a tennis racket for 0.094 s

To Find :

The average acceleration of the tennis ball.

Solution :

We know, average acceleration is given by :

$a_{avg}=\dfrac{Final \ velocity-Initial\ velocity}{Time\ Taken}\\\\a_{avg}=\dfrac{7.3-6.0}{0.094}\ m/s^2\\\\a_{avg}=13.83\ m/s^2$

Therefore, average velocity is given by 13.83 m/s².

Hence, this is the required solution.
