The value of current will remain constant throughout the series circuit.

Answer:

Explanation:

Consider all the resistors are connected in series such that the one end of a resistor is connected to another end of resistor. Similarly, the end of the second resistor is connected to end of third resistor and so on. As there is only one battery connection and this is also given to the first resistor and last resistor. The first resistor is the connected to the positive of battery via wire and the last resistor is connected to the negative terminal of the battery. So the current flow will be constant in all the resistors. As the voltage drop will occur in each of the resistors during passing through it. Thus the current will remain constant while the voltage and resistance will be varying with each other.

So Rs = R1 +R2+ R3 +.....................+R4.

So the value of current will remain constant throughout the series circuit.

A man pushes his lawnmower with a velocity of +0.75 m/s relative to the ground. A girl rides by on her bike with a velocity of +
SashulF [63]

Answer:

B. +5.75 m/s

Explanation:

When there are two bodies, a and b, whose velocities measured by a third observer (in this case, the ground) are V_a and V_b respectively, the relative velocity of B with respect to A is given by:

V_{ba}=V_b-V_a

Thus, the velocity of the girl relative to the lawnmower is:

V_{ba}=6.5\frac{m}{s}-0.75\frac{m}{s}\\V_{ba}=5.75\frac{m}{s}

A ball that is attached to a string travels in a horizontal, circular path, as shown in Figure 1. At time t0 , the ball has a sp
Levart [38]

Answer:

F₁ = 4 F₀

Explanation:

The force applied on the string by the ball attached to it, while in circular motion will be equal to the centripetal force. Therefore, at time t₀, the force on ball F₀ is given as:

F₀ = mv₀²/r   --------------- equation (1)

where,

F₀ = Force on string at t₀

m = mass of ball

v₀ = speed of ball at t₀

r = radius of circular path

Now, at time t₁:

v₁ = 2v₀

F₁ = mv₁²/r

F₁ = m(2v₀)²/r

F₁ = 4 mv₀²/r

using equation (1):

<u>F₁ = 4 F₀</u>

A circus tightrope walker weighing 800 N is standing in the middle of a 15 meter long cable stretched between two posts. The cab
Lorico [155]

Answer:

T = 10010 N

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the translational equilibrium relation, let's set a reference frame

X axis

       Fₓ-Fₓ = 0

       Fₓ = Fₓ

whereby the horizontal components of the tension in the cable cancel

Y Axis  

        F_{y} + F_{y} - W =0

        2F_{y} = W

let's use trigonometry to find the angles

        tan θ = y / x

        θ = tan⁻¹ (0.30 / 0.50 L)

        θ = tan⁻¹ (0.30 / 0.50 15)

        θ = 2.29º

the components of stress are

         F_{y} = T sin θ

we substitute

       2 T sin θ = W

       T = W / 2sin θ

        T = \frac{ 800}{ 2sin 2.29}

        T = 10010 N

A football player with a mass of 85 kg wears a uniform and helmet that have a mass of 4.5 kg. The football player moves at 2.1 m
DochEvi [55]
The answer would be 187.95 kg.m/s.

To get the momentum, all you have to do is multiply the mass of the moving object by the velocity. 

p = mv

Where:
P = momentum
m = mass
v = velocity

Not the question is asking what is the total momentum of the football player and uniform. So we need to first get the combined mass of the football player and the uniform. 

Mass of football player = 85.0 kg
Mass of the uniform     = <u>  4.5 kg</u>
TOTAL MASS                  89.5 kg

So now we have the mass. So let us get the momentum of the combined masses. 

p = mv
   = (89.5kg)(2.1m/s)
   = 187.95 kg.m/s
