4. Calculate the total resistance for two 180 ohm resistors connected in parallel

Physics
1 answer:
solmaris [256]3 years ago

Answer:

90 ohms

Explanation:

1/r = 1/180 + 1/180

1/r= 2/180

take the reciprocal of 2/180 which is 180/2 and its 90 ohms

A wave is described by y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t), where x is in meters, y is in centimeters and t is in seconds. The angular wa
Mila [183]

Answer: 3 radians/meter.

Explanation:

The general sinusoidal function will be something like:

y = A*sin(k*x - ω*t) + C

Where:

A is the amplitude.

k is the wave number.

x is the spatial variable

ω is the angular frequency

t is the time variable.

C is the mid-value.

The rule that we can use to solve this problem, is that the argument of the sin( ) function must be in radians (or in degrees)

Then if x is in meters, the wave-number must be in radians/meters, so when these numbers multiply the "meters" part is canceled.

Then for the case of the function:

y(x,t) = 0.1 sin(3x + 10t)

Where x is in meters, the units of the wave number (the 3) must be in radians/meters. Then the angular wave number is 3 radians/meter.

If the current in a wire increases from 5 A to 10 A, what happens to its magnetic field? If the distance of a charged particle f
Anna007 [38]

(1) Doubling of the current through the wire will result in doubling of its magnetic  field.

The magnetic field around a wire is a function of the current I and radial distance r

B = \frac{\mu\cdot I }{2\pi r}

(with mu denoting the magnetic permeability of the medium). So, B is directly proportional to I. The field magnitude will double with the doubled current from 5A to 10A

(2) Using the same formula as in (1), we can see that the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the radial distance from the wire. So, a particle at 20cm will experience half the magnitude compared to a particle at 10cm.

(3) Answer

If a particle with a charge q  moves through a magnetic field B with velocity v, it will be acted on by the magnetic force

F_m = B\cdot v\cdot q

So, a particle with charge -2uC will experience a magnetic force of same magnitude but opposite direction (and perpendicular to B) as compared to a particle with a charge of 2uC

When a car burns gasoline, much of the energy is released in the form of heat. Which of the following best describes this proces
horrorfan [7]

Answer: Option (B) is correct.

The first law of thermodynamics is an adaptation of the law of conservation of energy, this is thoroughly adapted for the systems(thermodynamics). Law of conservation of energy defines that the total energy of a confined system is stable; energy can be transferred or converted from one form to another, but it cannot be formed or destroyed.
