Answer:

=6A

Explanation:

total resistance it is in parallel(arrangement of resistors)

R1*R2/R1+R2=20 OHMS

I=V/R

120/20=6A

6A IS THE CURRENT TAKEN BY THE RESISTORS

Answer:6amperes

Explanation:

1/R=1/40 + 1/40

1/R=2/40

Cross multiplying we get

2R=40

Divide both sides by 2

2R/2 =40/2

R=20ohms

Current=voltage ➗ resistance

Current=120 ➗ 20

Current =6amperes

A 4-kilogram ball moving at 8 m/sec to the right collides with a 1-kilogram ball at rest. After the collision,

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Conservation of momentum: total momentum before = total momentum after

Momentum = mass x velocity

So before the collision:
4kg x 8m/s = 32
1kg x 0m/s = 0
32+0=32

Therefore after the collision
4kg x 4.8m/s = 19.2
1kg x βm/s = β
19.2 + β = 32

Therefore β = 12.8 m/s

A satellite circles the Earth in an orbit whose radius is twice the Earth’s radius. The Earth’s mass is 5.98 x 1024 kg, and its

Hello!

Recall the period of an orbit is how long it takes the satellite to make a complete orbit around the earth. Essentially, this is the same as 'time' in the distance = speed * time equation. For an orbit, we can define these quantities:

$d = 2\pi r$ ← The circumference of the orbit
