V125BC [204]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistor has resistance in the ratio 2:3

Then,

R1 : R2 = 2:3

R1 / R2 =⅔

3 •R1 = 2• R2

Let R2 = R

Then,

R1 = ⅔R2 = 2/3 R

So, if the resistor are connected in series

Let know the current that will flow in the circuit

Series connection will have a equivalent resistance of

Req = R1 + R2

Req = R + ⅔ R = 5/3 R

Req = 5R / 3

Let a voltage V be connect across then, the current that flows can be calculated using ohms law

V = iR

I = V/Req

I = V / (5R /3)

I = 3V / 5R

This the current that flows in the two resistors since the same current flows in series connection

Now, using ohms law again to calculated voltage in each resistor

V= iR

For R1 = ⅔R

V1 =i•R1

V1 = 3V / 5R × 2R / 3

V1 = 3V × 2R / 5R × 3

V1 = 2V / 5

For R2 = R

V2 = i•R2

V2 = 3V / 5R × R

V2 = 3V × R / 5R

V2 = 3V / 5

Then,

Ratio of voltage 1 to voltage 2

V1 : V2 = V1 / V2 = 2V / 5 ÷ 3V / 5

V1 : V2 = 2V / 5 × 5 / 3V.

V1 : V2 =2 / 3

V1:V2 = 2:3

The ratio of their voltages is also 2:3

An archer tests various arrowheads by shooting arrows at a pumpkin that is suspended from a tree branch by a rope, as shown to t
erik [133]

Answer:

Bounce 1 ,  pass 3,   emb2

Explanation:

(By the way I am also doing that question on College board physics page) For the Bounce arrow, since it bumps into the object and goes back, it means now it has a negative momentum, which means a larger momentum is given to the object. P=mv, so the velocity is larger for the object, and larger velocity means a larger kinetic energy which would result in a larger change in the potential energy. Since K=0.5mv^2=U=mgh, a larger potential energy would have a larger change in height which means it has a larger angle θ with the vertical line. Comparing with the "pass arrow" and the "Embedded arrow", the embedded arrow gives the object a larger momentum, Pi=Pf (mv=(M+m)V), it gives all its original momentum to the two objects right now. (Arrow and the pumpkin), it would have a larger velocity. However for the pass arrow, it only gives partial of its original momentum and keeps some of them for the arrow to move, which means the pumpkin has less momentum, means less velocity, and less kinetic energy transferred into the potential energy, and means less change in height, less θangle.  So it is  Bounce1, pass3, emb2.

Noah drops a rock with a density of 1.73 g/cm3 into a pond. Will the rock float or sink? Explain your answer.
wel

Answer:

Sink

Explanation:

The normal density of water is 1 g/cm3.  Since the rock has a higher density of 1.72g/cm3, it will sink in water.

How to play track and field
Ahat [919]

Explanation:

Track and Field is a sport, which is includes disciplines of running, jumping, and throwing events. The sport traces back to Ancient Greece. The first recorded examples of this sport were at the Ancient Greek Olympics. In Ancient Greece, only one event was contested, the stadion footrace. Later on, the game expanded to more events.Events of track and field are divided into three: track events, field events, and combined events. Track events consist of Sprints, middle-distance, long distance, hurdles and relays; Field events consist of jumps and throws; while combined events consist of pentathlon, heptathlon, and decathlon. Track and field is usually played outdoors in stadiums. The usual features of a track and field stadium are the outer running track, and the field within the track

A stone thrown off a bridge 10m above a river has an initial velocity of 8ms at an angle of 25 degrees above the horizontal. Wha
Darina [25.2K]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Height above which the stone was thrown, h = 10 m

Initial velocity of the stone, u = 8 m/s

Angle above the horizontal, \theta=25^{\circ}

The horizontal component of velocity is, u_x=v\ cos\theta=8\ cos(25)=7.25\ m/s

The vertical component of velocity is, u_y=v\ sin\theta=8\ cos(25)=3.38\ m/s

Let t is the time of flight in vertical motion. The second equation of motion is :

h=u_yt-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

10=3.38t-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.8t^2      

t = 0.34 seconds

Let s is the range of the stone. It can be calculated as :

s=u_x\ cos\theta \times t

s=7.25\times 0.34

s = 2.46 meters

So, the range of the stone is 2.46 meters. Hence, this is the required solution.
