Answer:

The current in the 10.0- Ω resistor is 1.16A

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in series, they are have the same current.

When they are in parallel, their current is divided.

The equivalent resistance of parallel resistors R1 and R2 is:

Req = R1*R2/(R1 + R2)

Initially, we use Ohm's Rule to solve this question.

V = Ri

In which V is the Voltage, R is the resistence and i is the current.

Among two resistors, R1 and R2, in parralel, we have that

iR1 = i(0)R2/(R1 + R2)

In which i(0) is the current entering.

Three resistors connected in parallel have individual values of 4.0, 6.0, and 10.0 Ω, respectively. In series with a 12-V battery and a 2.0- Ω resistor.

The current entering the parallel is the same current as it is for the 2.0- Ω resistor, with 12 V.

It is

V = Ri

12 = 2i

i = 6A

This means that i(0) = 6A.

4.0, 6.0, and 10.0 Ω in parallel

We want the current in the 10.0 Ω resistor.

The current divisor is not applicable with 3 resistors. However, we can calculate the equivalent resistance for the resistors of 4 and 6, and then the current divisor with the 10. So

Req = 4*6/(4+6) = 2.4

iR10 = 6*2.4/(10 + 2.4) = 1.16

The current in the 10.0- Ω resistor is 1.16A

How quickly a leaf grows is proportional how big [ie the surface area] the leaf is. If the area of the leaf grows from 2cm2 to 3
marusya05 [52]

Answer: 9 days

Explanation:

  • Step 1

Let the rate of Leaf growth <em>r</em> be defined as, \frac{Increase  in  area}{time taken} = \frac{A1 - A}{t}

where <em>A</em> is initial area of the leaf, <em>A1</em> is the final area of the leaf and<em> t</em> is the time taken for the increase in Area.

  • Express the proportional relationship in equation.

Given that rate of leaf growth, r is proportional to the surface area of the leaf A. we have r ∝ A.

r = kA, where k is the rate constant.

therefore, k = \frac{r}{A}

when A = 2cm^{2}, A1 = 3

so k = \frac{\frac{3 - 2}{3}}{2}

= \frac{1}{3} ÷ 2

= 0.33 ÷ 2

k = 0.167

  • After calculating the rate constant k, we then find the time t when A1 is 5cm^{2}
  • we have r = k × A1 = \frac{A1 - A}{t}

so, 0.167 × 2 = \frac{5 - 2}{t}

0.33 = \frac{3}{t}.

t = 3/0.33

Therefore, t = 9 days.

All 2023 ariya ac synchronous drive motors produce ____% torque at 0 mph for impressive off-the-line acceleration and smooth cru
Savatey [412]

All 2023 Ariya ac synchronous drive motors produce 100% torque at 0 mph for impressive off-the-line acceleration and smooth cruising.

<h3>How to calculate the torque?</h3>

Mathematically, the torque of an automobile vehicle can be calculated by using this formula:

Torque = Fd

<u>Where:</u>

  • F is the force.
  • d is the distance.

Generally, torque is a rotational force which is developed by the crankshaft of an automobile vehicle and its capacity to move at a specific acceleration.

Total mechanical energy (The sum of kinetic and potential energy
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Emechanical=mgh+\frac{1}{2}mν²

Explanation:

The equation for the total mechanical energy is:

Emechanical=Epotential+Ekinetic

In which,

Epotential=mgh; m: mass of the body, g: gravity; h: height

Ekinetic=\frac{1}{2}mν²; m: mass of the body, ν: velocity of the body

So,

Emechanical=mgh+\frac{1}{2}mν²
