Newton's third law states "for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

What this is pretty much saying is that for every action, there is a consequence. One force connects and triggers another.

Newton's third law says, " For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction."

The magnitude of action and reaction are equal but the direction is opposite.

When a 20-V emf is placed across two resistors in series, a current of 2.0 A is present in each of the resistors. When the same

ehidna [41]

Answer:

7.24 ohm

Explanation:

Let R1 and R2 are resistance of two resistors.

Emf=E=20 V

Current,I=2 A

Current,I'=10 A

We have to find the magnitude of the greater of the two resistances.

In series

$R=R_1+R_2$

$V=IR$

By using the formula

$20=2(R_1+R_2)$

$R_1+R_2=\frac{20}{2}=10$ ...(1)

In parallel

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}$

$\frac{1}{R}=\frac{R_2+R_1}{R_1R_2}$

$R=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}$

$20=10(\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}$

$2=\frac{R_1R_2}{10}$

$R_1R_2=20$

$R_2=\frac{20}{R_1}$

Substitute the value

$\frac{20}{R_1}+R_1=10$

$R^2_1+20=10R_1$

$R^2_1-10R_1+20=0$

$R_1=\frac{10\pm\sqrt{(-10)^2-4(20)}}{2}$

By using quadratic formula

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$R_1=\frac{10\pm 2\sqrt 5}{2}$

$R_1=\frac{10+2\sqrt 5}{2}=5+\sqrt 5=7.24 ohm$

$R_1=\frac{10-2\sqrt 5}{2}=2.76 ohm$

Substitute the value

$R_2=\frac{20}{7.24}=2.76 ohm$

$R_2=\frac{20}{2.76}=7.24 ohm$

Hence, the magnitude of the greater of the two resistance=7.24 ohm

A turtle accelerates from a stop at 3m/s/s to the South for 8s. What is the turtle’s final velocity? Show your work and include

andrey2020 [161]

He's accelerating at 3 m/s² . That means his speed is increasing by 3 m/s every second.At the end of 8 seconds, his speed is (8 x 3 m/s) = 24 m/s .He's been moving south for the whole 8 seconds.So at the end of that time, his velocity is 24 m/s south .
