A diagram of a closed circuit with a power source on the left labeled 6 V. There are 3 resistors in parallel, separate paths, co

nnected to it labeled B 10 Ohms, C 20 Ohms and D 50 Ohms. The branch with the power source is labeled A. There are vectors in the clockwise direction across all three resistors and in the branch with the power source. Perform calculations using the circuit illustrated. Round all the numerical answers to the tenths place. The total resistance in the circuit is Ω. The expected current at point A is A. At what point in the circuit will the current be the lowest (A, B, C, or D)?

Answer:

Current: 1.0 Amperes

The minimum current is flowing through path D

Explanation:

We first find the equivalent resistance to the three resistors in parallel ( which is the total resistance of the circuit) via the equation:

\frac{1}{R_e} =\frac{1}{R_B}+\frac{1}{R_C}+\frac{1}{R_D}\\\frac{1}{R_e} =\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{50}=0.17\\R_e=(1/0.17)\Omega\\R_e=5.88 \Omega

with this info, we can estimate the current going through branch A using Ohm's Law, and the information that the power source is 6 V:

V=I*R\\6V=I*5.88\Omega\\I=\frac{6}{5.88} Amp\\I=1.02A

where the current comes in units of Amperes since all other the quantities are given in the SI system, and we can round this answer to 1.0 Amp following the request to round it to the tenth.

The current will be the lowest through the branch with the largest resistor due to the fact that less current will flow through the path of more resistance.

Than means that the lowest current will be registered through branch D where the 50 \Omega resistor is.

A distant planet with a mass of (7.2000x10^26) has a moon with a mass of (5.0000x10^23). The distance between the planet and the
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a simple gravitational force problem using the equation:

F_g=\frac{Gm_1m_2}{r^2} where F is the gravitational force, G is the universal gravitational constant, the m's are the masses of the2 objects, and r is the distance between the centers of the masses. I am going to state G to 3 sig fig's so that is the number of sig fig's we will have in our answer. If we are solving for the gravitational force, we can fill in everything else where it goes. Keep in mind that I am NOT rounding until the very end, even when I show some simplification before the final answer.

Filling in:

F_g=\frac{(6.67*19^{-11})(7.2000*10^{26})(5.0000*10^{23})}{(6.10*10^{11})^2} I'm going to do the math on the top and then on the bottom and divide at the end.

F_g=\frac{2.4012*10^{40}}{3.721*10^{23}} and now when I divide I will express my answer to the correct number of sig dig's:

Fg= 6.45 × 10¹⁶ N

Which of these is an example of a mechanical wave?
OLga [1]
Your answer is A, Ocean Waves- because A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. Ocean waves do just that :)
Hope this helps!!

The Earth's place in space can be described as _________.
Olin [163]
The answer is B because if you use process of elimination, you find that A is invalid because Venus is the second planet. C is out because Mars is the 4th planet. D is out because we are nowhere  near the Andromeda Galaxy. We are millions of light years away.

If there was a small sphere freely suspended in plane poiseuille flow, how would you go about using linearity to prove that the
Blizzard [7]

Answer Explanation :

Poiseuille equation: this equation is used for non ideal flow this is used for the calculation of pressure in laminar flow it is physical law we know that fluid in laminar flow, flows across the pipe whose diameter is larger than the length of pipe

in mathematical form the equation can be expressed as

Q = \frac{(P_2-P_1) r^{4}\times \pi}{8\times\eta \times l }

where η is the cofficient of viscosity

now if we assume a small sphere of radius a is suspended freely in the plane of the laminar flow then for assuring that the sphere does not migrate with the flow we have to calculate the rate of flow of the liquid
