Question 1:

Series Circuit - the current only has one path to take.

Parallel Circuit - the current has two or more paths to take.

Open Circuit - a circuit that's incomplete.

The best option is b. parallel since its a circuit that has two or more loops through which the current flows, and each resistor has its own connection to the voltage source.

Question 2:

We can find the amount of power the television is using by using the formula [ p = cv ] where p = power, c = current, and v = voltage.

p = (0.4)(120)

p = 48

So, the television is using 48 watts of power.

Best of Luck!

Question #1:

That's an description of an <em>parallel</em> circuit. <em>(b)</em>

Question #2:

Power = (current) x (voltage)

Power = (0.4 A) x (120 v)

Power = <em>48 watts</em>

Objects with masses of 255 kg and a 555 kg are separated by 0.390 m.

eimsori [14]

Answer:

(a). The net gravitational force is $4.20\times10^{-6}\ N$

(b). The position is at 0.232 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of one object M = 255 kg

Mass of another object M'= 555 kg

Separation = 0.390 m

(a). We need to calculate the net gravitational force

Using formula of force

$F_{net}=\dfrac{GM'm}{r^2}-\dfrac{GMm}{r^2}$

$F_{net}=\dfrac{Gm(M'-M)}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$F_{net}=\dfrac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times32.0(555-255)}{(0.390)^2}$

$F_{net}=4.20\times10^{-6}\ N$

The net gravitational force is $4.20\times10^{-6}\ N$

(b). We need to calculate the position

Force from 555 mass = Force from 255 mass

$\dfrac{Gm\times555}{x^2}=\dfrac{Gm\times255}{(0.390-x)^2}$

$555(0.390-x)^2=255x^2$

$300x^2-0.78x+84.4155=0$

$x=0.232\ m$

The position is at 0.232 m.

Hence, (a). The net gravitational force is $4.20\times10^{-6}\ N$

(b). The position is at 0.232 m.

a vector has an x-component of 19.5m and a y-component of 28.4m. Find the magnitude and direction of the vector

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

magnitude=34.45 m

direction= $55.52\°$

Explanation:

Assuming the initial point P1 of this vector is at the origin:

P1=(X1,Y1)=(0,0)

And knowing the other point is P2=(X2,Y2)=(19.5,28.4)

We can find the magnitude and direction of this vector, taking into account a vector has a initial and a final point, with an x-component and a y-component.

For the magnitude we will use the formula to calculate the distance $d$ between two points:

$d=\sqrt{{(Y2-Y1)}^{2} +{(X2-X1)}^{2}}$ (1)

$d=\sqrt{{(28.4 m - 0 m)}^{2} +{(19.5 m - 0m)}^{2}}$ (2)

$d=\sqrt{1186.81 m^{2}}$ (3)

$d=34.45 m$ (4) This is the magnitude of the vector

For the direction, which is the measure of the angle the vector makes with a horizontal line, we will use the following formula:

$tan \theta=\frac{Y2-Y1}{X2-X1}$ (5)

$tan \theta=\frac{24.8 m - 0m}{19.5 m - 0m}$ (6)

$tan \theta=\frac{24.8}{19.5}$ (7)

Finding $\theta$ :

$\theta= tan^{-1}(\frac{24.8}{19.5})$ (8)

$\theta= 55.52\°$ (9) This is the direction of the vector

A light string is wrapped around the outer rim of a solid uniform cylinder of diameter 75.0 cm that can rotate without friction

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:18.5 kg

Explanation:

Given

diameter $d=75 cm$

mass of stone $m=3 kg$

velocity of stone $v=3.4 m/s$

height fallen $h=2.40 m$

using

$v^2-u^2=2as$

$(3.4)^2=2\times a\times 2.4$

$a=2.4 m/s^2$

Tension of string will Provide Torque to cylinder

$T\times r=I\times \alpha$

where $I=moment\ of\ inertia$

$\alpha =angular\ acceleration$

$T=\frac{Mr^2}{2}\times \frac{a}{r}$

$T=\frac{Ma}{2}$

and $mg-T=ma$

$mg-ma=T$

Put value of T

$mg-ma=\frac{Ma}{2}$

$mg=a(m+\frac{M}{2})$

$3\times 9.8=2.4\cdot (m+\frac{M}{2})$

$12.25=3+\frac{M}{2}$

$9.25=\frac{M}{2}$

$M=18.5 kg$
