8. When a 100 N bag of nails hangs motionless from a single vertical strand of rope, how many newtons of tension are exerted in

the strand? - What if the bag is supported by four vertical strands?

If the bag is motionless, then it's not accelerating up or down.
That fact right there tells you that the net vertical force on it
is zero.  So the sum of any upward forces on it is exactly equal
to the downward gravitational force ... the bag's "weight".

If the bag is suspended from a single rope, then the tension
in the rope must be equal to the 100-N weight of the bag.

And if there are four ropes holding it up, then the sum of
the four tensions is 100N.  If the ropes have been carefully
adjusted to share the load equally, then the tension is 25N
in each rope.

The total resistance of a parallel circuit is 25 ohms. If the total current is 100mA, how much current is through a 220 ohm resi
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

The current across the resistance is 0.011 A.

Explanation:

Total resistance, R = 25 ohms

Total current, I = 100 mA = 0.1 A

Let the voltage is V.

By the Ohm's law

V = I R

V = 0.1 x 25 = 2.5 V

Now the resistance is R' = 220 ohm

As they are in parallel so the voltage is same. Let the current is I'.

V = I' x R'

2.5 = I' x 220

I' = 0.011 A

Explain why the top of the loop cannot be the same height as (or higher than) the top of the first hill. Assume the roller coast
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

By conservation of energy, it can climb up to a height equal to that it went down before. However, due to the friction in the machines, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster will decrease. As a result, the first "hill" of many roller coasters are the highest, but the followings will have decreasing heights.
