Answer:

Here, for parallel resisitors

Option D) all of the other choices are are true

is correct.

Explanation:

In parallel connection:

1) Voltage across each element connected in parallel remain same.

2) Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL), sum of the current entering and leaving the junction will be zero

3) The equivalent resistance of the elements connected in parallel is always less than the individual resistance of any resistor in the circuit.

The equivalent resistance in a parallel circuit is given by:

\frac{1}{R_{eq}} = \frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2} +......+ \frac{1}{R_n}

During normal beating, the heart creates a maximum 3.60 mV potential across 0.250 m of a person's chest, creating a 1.00 Hz elec
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The maximum electric field strength is 0.0144 V/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric potential created in the heart, V = 3.6 mV

Distance, d= 0.25 m

Frequency of the the electromagnetic wave, f = 1 Hz

We need to find the maximum electric field strength created. We know that the electric potential is given by :

V=Ed

E is the maximum electric field strength

E=\dfrac{V}{d}\\\\E=\dfrac{3.6\times 10^{-3}\ V}{0.25\ m}\\\\E=0.0144\ V/m

So, the maximum electric field strength is 0.0144 V/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Name two methods scientist use to obtain empirical evidence
alisha [4.7K]

<span>The scientists use data and measurement to obtain empirical evidence. Data can be collected through direct observation or else experimentation. Empirical measurements and data can be gathered by using qualitative and quantitative methods. Empirical evidence contains the recording and analyzing the data which is a central part of scientific method.</span>

Dave rows a boat across a river at 4.0 m/s. the river flows at 6.0 m/s and is 360 m across.
Ad libitum [116K]

a) Let's call x the direction parallel to the river and y the direction perpendicular to the river.

Dave's velocity of 4.0 m/s corresponds to the velocity along y (across the river), while 6.0 m/s corresponds to the velocity of the boat along x. Therefore, the drection of Dave's boat is given by:

\theta= arctan(\frac{v_y}{v_x})=arctan(\frac{4.0 m/s}{6.0 m/s})=arctan(0.67)=33.7^{\circ}

relative to the direction of the river.


b) The distance Dave has to travel it S=360 m, along the y direction. Since the velocity along y is constant (4.0 m/s), this is a uniform motion, so the time taken to cross the river is given by

t=\frac{S_y}{v_y}=\frac{360 m}{4.0 m/s}=90 s


c) The boat takes 90 s in total to cross the river. The displacement along the y-direction, during this time, is 360 m. The displacement along the x-direction is

S_x = v_x t =(6.0 m/s)(90 s)=540 m

so, Dave's landing point is 540 m downstream.


d) If there were no current, Dave would still take 90 seconds to cross the river, because its velocity on the y-axis (4.0 m/s) does not change, so the problem would be solved exactly as done at point b).

a light wave is traveling straight up out of the ocean then moves out into the air how do you expect the movement of the light w
Mariulka [41]
If the light is traveling straight up, then it hits the interface (surface
or boundary) between water and air perpendicularly (90° to the surface).

This direction is the direction of the 'normal' to the surface.  So the
angle of incidence is zero, and that means the angle of refraction is
also zero.  The light just keeps going in the same direction when it
emerges into the air, and is not bent.

However, its speed increases in air, and that means its wavelength
also becomes longer than it was in the water.

A resistor with r = 340 ω and an inductor are connected in series across an ac source that has voltage amplitude 490 v. The rate
Arada [10]

The value of impedance Z of the circuit, when the rate at which electrical energy is dissipated in the resistor is 316 w, is 508 ohms.

<h3>What is impedance Z of the circuit?</h3>

The impedance Z of the circuit is the ratio of voltage amplitude to the maximum current.

Z=\dfrac{V}{I}

Here, <em>V </em>is voltage amplitude and<em> I</em> maximum current.

A resistor with R = 300 Ω and an inductor are connected in series across an ac source that has voltage amplitude 490V. The rate at which electrical energy is dissipated in the resistor is 316 W.

The rate at which electrical energy is dissipated in the resistor is the product of the resistance and the square of current. Thus,

316=340\times I^2\\I=\sqrt{\dfrac{316}{340}}\\I=0.964\rm\; A

The impedance Z of the circuit is,

Z=\dfrac{V}{I}\\Z=\dfrac{490}{0.964}\\Z=508\rm\; ohm

Thus, the value of impedance Z of the circuit, when the rate at which electrical energy is dissipated in the resistor is 316 w, is 508 ohms.
