Answer:
(1) 2 ohms
(2) 12 Volts Across each resistor
(3) I₁ = 3 A, I₂ = 2 A, I₃ = 1 A
Explanation:
From the question,
(1) Equilvalent Resistance (Rt) for parallel connection is
1/Rt =(1/R₁)+ (1/R₂) + (1/R₃)
Where R₁ = 4 ohms, R₂ = 6 ohms, R₃ = 12 ohms
1/Rt = 1/4 +1/6 +1/12
1/Rt = (3+2+1)/12
1/Rt = 6/12
1/Rt = 1/2
Rt = 2 ohms.
(2) Since the resistors are connected in parallel, They will have the same potential difference across them,
Hence the P.d across each resistor = 12 Volts.
(3) For R₁,
I₁ = V/R₁ = 12/4
I₁ = 3 A.
For R₂,
I₂ = V/R₂
I₂ = 12/6
I₂ = 2 A
For R₃,
I₃ = V/R₃
I₃ = 12/12
I₃ = 1 A
Recall
power = Force × speed
100 = 3.5×10 × V
V = 100÷35 = 2.86 ms-¹
Explanation: Newton's first law of motion states that a body at rest remains at rest, or, if in motion, remains in motion at a constant velocity unless acted on by a net external force. This is also known as the law of inertia. Inertia is the tendency of an object to remain at rest or remain in motion.
Answer:
Buoyant force = 3.0 N
The object will not float.
Explanation:
Apparent weight of a body immersed in water is the actual weight of object minus buoyant force
Given in the question that;
Weight of object in air = 7.0 N
Apparent weight of object = 4.0 N
4.0 N = 7.0 N - Buoyant force
Buoyant force = 7.0 - 4.0 = 3.0 N
In this case, the buoyant force is less than weight of the object thus the object will sink.
