Answer:
1) R1 + ((R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3))
2) 0.5 A
3) 3.6 V
Explanation:
1) We can see that resistors R2 and R3 are in parallel.
Formula for sum of parallel resistors; 1/Rt = 1/R2 + 1/R3
Making Rt the subject gives;
Rt = (R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3)
Now, Resistor R1 is in series with this sum of R2 and R3. Thus;
Total resistance of circuit = R1 + ((R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3))
2) R_total = R1 + ((R2 × R3)/(R2 + R3))
We are given;
R1 = 7.2 Ω
R2 = 8 Ω
R3 = 12 Ω
R_total = 7.2 + ((8 × 12)/(8 + 12))
R_total = 7.2 + 4.8
R_total = 12 Ω
Formula for current is;
I = V/R
I = 6/12
I = 0.5 A
3) since current through the circuit is 0.5 and R1 is 7.2 Ω.
Thus, potential difference through R1 is;
V = IR = 0.5 × 7.2 = 3.6 V
Answer:
The sled needed a distance of 92.22 m and a time of 1.40 s to stop.
Explanation:
The relationship between velocities and time is described by this equation:
, where
is the final velocity,
is the initial velocity,
the acceleration, and
is the time during such acceleration is applied.
Solving the equation for the time, and applying to the case:
, where
because the sled is totally stopped,
is the velocity of the sled before braking and,
is negative because the deceleration applied by the brakes.
In the other hand, the equation that describes the distance in term of velocities and acceleration:
, where
is the distance traveled,
is the initial velocity,
the time of the process and,
is the acceleration of the process.
Then for this case the relationship becomes:
.
<u>Note that the acceleration is negative because is a braking process.</u>
It is based on the idea that all the present continents were on supercontinent.
No because there must be an even # if their is an even amount one of the forces isn’t being cancelled
Answer:
Force
Explanation:
The mass of an object is the quantity of matter it contains. It is measured in kilograms.
Acceleration is the ratio of the change in the velocity of an object to the change in time. It is measured in m/
.
When the mass of an object is multiplied with its acceleration, this gives the average force applied on the object. As force is defined as agent that can change the state of an object.
i.e F = m × a
where F is the force, m is the mass of the object and a its acceleration.
The two major classes of force are; contact force and field force.
