You can't tell the relative values of I-1 and I-2 from the information given,
but that's not for any super-technical reason.

The reason is because the drawing doesn't show WHERE in the circuit
I-1 and I-2 are measured.

It makes a BIG difference if they're the currents in the resistors, or
the currents in and out of the battery.

-- The currents in and out of the battery are equal.

-- The current through either resistor is less than
the current in or out of the battery.

-- The sum of the currents through both resistors
is equal to the current in or out of the battery.

-- The currents through the two resistors may be equal
or unequal, and either one may be greater or less than
the other. It all depends on the values of the resistors.

Two bicyclist, originally separated by a distance of 20 miles, are each traveling at a uniform speed of 10 miles per hour toward

Radda [10]

Answer:

D = 25 miles

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we just need to know how much time it took both bicyclists to collide and that will be the same amount of time that the bee flew at 25miles per hour. With those values we could calculate the distance it traveled.

Since both bicyclists collide, we know that Xa=Xb, so:

Xa = V*t = 10*t and Xb = 20 - V*t = 20 - 10*t

10*t = 20 - 10*t Solving for t:

t = 1 hour Now we can calculate the distance for the bee:

D = Vbee * t = 25 * 1 = 25 miles

A car horn emits a frequency of 400 Hz. A car traveling at 20.0 m/s sounds the horn as it approaches a stationary pedestrian. Wh

Temka [501]

Answer:

The observed frequency by the pedestrian is 424 Hz.

Explanation:

Given;

frequency of the source, Fs = 400 Hz

speed of the car as it approaches the stationary observer, Vs = 20 m/s

Based on Doppler effect, as the car the approaches the stationary observer, the observed frequency will be higher than the transmitted (source) frequency because of decrease in distance between the car and the observer.

The observed frequency is calculated as;

$F_s = F_o [\frac{v}{v_s + v} ] \\\\$
