<h2>Question:</h2>
In this circuit the resistance R1 is 3Ω, R2 is 7Ω, and R3 is 7Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resistance be?
Answer:
9.1Ω
Explanation:
The circuit diagram has been attached to this response.
(i) From the diagram, resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel to each other. The reciprocal of their equivalent resistance, say Rₓ, is the sum of the reciprocals of the resistances of each of them. i.e

=>
------------(i)
From the question;
R1 = 3Ω,
R2 = 7Ω
Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;


Ω
(ii) Now, since we have found the equivalent resistance (Rₓ) of R1 and R2, this resistance (Rₓ) is in series with the third resistor. i.e Rₓ and R3 are connected in series. This is shown in the second image attached to this response.
Because these resistors are connected in series, they can be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance R. Where R is the sum of the resistances of the two resistors: Rₓ and R3. i.e
R = Rₓ + R3
Rₓ = 2.1Ω
R3 = 7Ω
=> R = 2.1Ω + 7Ω = 9.1Ω
Therefore, the combination of the resistors R1, R2 and R3 can be replaced with a single resistor with an equivalent resistance of 9.1Ω
Answer:
a) Tc = 750 [N] ;b) See the explanation below.
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we first need a graphical explanation of this, as well as knowing the corresponding questions. Therefore, a search was carried out in google, in the attached image we will find a graphical description of the problem.
b)
The solution of this type of problem corresponds to the use of Newton's third law, applying static which tells us that the sum of the forces in a system in equilibrium without movement must be equal to zero.
a)
In this way we can find by means of a sum of forces on the y axis equal to zero:
- 850 - 450 + 550 + Tc = 0
Tc = 750 [N]
Answer:
<h2>9.92 N</h2>
Explanation:
The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula
force = mass × acceleration
From the question we have
force = 3.2 × 3.1
We have the final answer as
<h3>9.92 N</h3>
Hope this helps you
Noble gasses have an outer shell full of electrons. A full outer energy level is the most stable arrangement of electrons. As a result, noble gases cannot become more stable by reacting with other elements and gaining or losing valence electrons. Therefore, noble gases are rarely involved in chemical reactions and almost never form compounds with other elements.
Answer:
The correct answer is the second option
Explanation:
The formula in question (for gravitational force) is provided below
F = G.m₁.m₂/r²
Where
F = force of gravity
G = gravity constant (6.674 × 10⁻¹¹ m.kg⁻¹.s⁻²)
m₁ and m₂ = are the masses of the objects
r² = distance between the centers of the two objects
From the above, <u>it can be deduced that m₁ and m₂ are masses and hence can only be positive. Positives multiplied together only gives positive, thus the second option is correct.</u>
