A battery supplies 0.71 A to three resistors connected in parallel. The current through the first resistor is 0.27 A and the cur

rent through the second resistor is 0.24 A. What is the exact current (in A) through the third resistor

Answer:

0.2 A

Explanation:

Current: This is the rate of flow of charge in a circuit. The S.I unit of charge is Ampere (A).

Note: When resistors are connected in parallel, the total current is equal to the sum of the individual current in each resistor.

It = I1 + I2 + I3......................... Equation 1

Where,

It = Total current, I1 = current in the first resistor, I2 = current in the second resistor, I3 = current in the third resistor.

Given: It = 0.71 A, I1 = 0.27 A, I2 = 0.24 A.

Substitute into equation 1

0.71 = 0.27+0.24+I3

0.71 = 0.51+I3

I3 = 0.2 A.

Hence the current through the third resistor = 0.2 A

What is the instantaneous speed at 5 seconds? (remember s=d/t)
TEA [102]
5 seconds is a poor time to ask about, because the speed abruptly changes at exactly 5 seconds.

Up until that time, the speed has been 1 m/s. And then, at exactly 5 seconds, it becomes zero.
_________

It's also a poor question because speed is calculated from the distance covered, but the graph shows displacement, not distance. You can't really tell the distance covered from a displacement graph. For example, if an object happens to be moving in a circle around the place where it started, then the total distance covered keeps increasing, but its displacement is constant.

Lilit [14]

Answer:

I think it is 80m/s

Explanation:

d = ½ g t2

  = ½ (10 m/s2) (4 s)2

  = (5 m/s2) (16 s2)

  = 80 ms

75% sure

Hope this helps!!!

Answer:

When equal and opposite forces meet each other, it results in motion and they would repel away from each other, causing the asteroid to be sent away from the earth.

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction.

Which best describes a tsunami?
eduard

Answer:

A tsunami is a series of waves in a water body caused by the displacement of a large volume of water, generally in an ocean or a large lake. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami. Unlike normal ocean waves, which are generated by wind, or tides, which are generated by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun, a tsunami is generated by the displacement of water.
