A 3.0 \Omega Ω resistor is connected in parallel to a 6.0 \Omega Ω resistor, and the combination is connected in series with a 4

.0 \Omega Ω resistor. If this combination is connected across a 12.0 V battery, what is the power dissipated in the 3.0 \Omega Ω resistor?

Answer:

The power dissipated in the 3 Ω resistor is P= 5.3watts.

Explanation:

After combine the 3 and 6 Ω resistor in parallel, we have an 2 Ω and a 4 Ω resistor in series.

The resultating resistor is of Req=6Ω.

I= V/Req

I= 2A

the parallel resistors have a potential drop of Vparallel=4 volts.

I(3Ω) = Vparallel/R(3Ω)

I(3Ω)= 1.33A

P= I(3Ω)² * R(3Ω)

P= 5.3 Watts

The electric field 2.5 mm from a uniform sheet of charge is σ=800, NC. How much charge is contained in a 5.0x5.0 cm section of t
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The charge is 2.75\times10^{-13}\ C

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 2.5 mm

Electric field = 800 NC

Length L=5.0\times5.0\times10^{-4}\ m

We need to calculate the linear charge density

Using formula of linear charge density

E=\dfrac{2k\lambda}{r}

\lambda=\dfrac{Er}{2k}

Put the value into the formula

\lambda=\dfrac{800\times2.5\times10^{-3}}{2\times9\times10^{9}}

\lambda=1.1\times10^{-10}\ C/m

We need to calculate the charge

Using formula of charge

Q=\lambda\timesL

Put the value into the formula

Q=1.1\times10^{-10}\times(5.0\times5.0\times10^{-4})

Q=2.75\times10^{-13}\ C

Hence, The charge is 2.75\times10^{-13}\ C

a 20 ft shipping container on a cargo ship has a mass of 24000 kg and a volume of 33.2m3. what is the density of the shipping co
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

722.89

Explanation:

mass=24000kg

volume=33•2

density=?

now,

density=mass/volume

=24000/33•2

=722•89

density=722•89 kg/m^3

How does a parallel circuit differ from a series circuit?
8_murik_8 [283]
I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A parallel circuit differ from a series circuit in a sense that a <span>series circuit has one path for electrons, but a parallel circuit has more than one path. In a parallel circuit there two or more paths for current to flow while a series circuit only has one.</span>

If a player through a basketball to the target with an initial velocity of 17 m/s making an angle of 30 degrees with the horizon
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The final position made with the vertical is 2.77 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the ball, V = 17 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 30⁰

time of motion, t = 1.3 s

The vertical component of the velocity is calculated as;

V_y = Vsin \theta\\\\V_y = 17 \times sin(30)\\\\V_y = 8.5 \ m/s

The final position made with the vertical (Yf) after 1.3 seconds is calculated as;

Y_f = V_yt  - \frac{1}{2}g t^2\\\\Y_f = (8.5 \times 1.3 ) - (\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 1.3^2)\\\\Y_f = 11.05 \ - \ 8.281\\\\Y_f = 2.77 \ m

Therefore, the final position made with the vertical is 2.77 m.
