Answer:
0.4 ohms.
Explanation:
From the circuit,
The voltage reading in the voltmeter = voltage drop across each of the parallel resistance.
1/R' = 1/R1+1/R2
R' = (R1×R2)/(R1+R2)
R' = (2.4×1.2)/(2.4+1.2)
R' = 2.88/3.6
R' = 0.8 ohms.
Hence the current flowing through the circuit is
I = V'/R'................ Equation 1
Where V' = voltmeter reading
I = 6/0.8
I = 7.5 A
This is the same current that flows through the variable resistor.
Voltage drop across the variable resistor = 9-6 = 3 V
Therefore, the resistance of the variable resistor = 3/7.5
Resistance = 0.4 ohms.
Answer:
10 kg
Explanation:
The mass of an object does not change even if the amount of gravtiy changes.
From Ohm's law: R = V / I
Resistance = (voltage) / (current)
The first paragraph TELLS you that the current is always 0.5 A, and the table tells you the voltage across each piece of wire.
Again . . . <em>R = V / I</em>
A = 15, B = 1
48 + 15 = 63 for the first 86km
43 - 1 = 42 for the remaining 54 km
time = distance/speed
t1 = 86/63 = 1.3651hours
t2 = 54/42 = 1.2857hours
speed = distance/time
s = 140/2.6508
average speed = 52.8km/h
