A 5.00 Ω, a 10.0 Ω, and a 15.0 Ω resistor are connected in

Physics
1 answer:
Bad White [126]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Option C) 3A

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage = 90.0 Volts

Current I = ?

R1 = 5.0Ω

R2 = 10.0Ω

R3 = 15.0Ω

Since the resistors are connected in series, the total resistance (Rtotal) of the circuit is the sum of each resistance.

i.e Rtotal = R1 + R2 + R3

Rtotal = 5.0Ω + 10.0Ω + 15.0Ω = 30.0Ω

Then, apply the formula for ohms law

Voltage = Current x resistance

V = I x Rtotal

90.0V = I x 30.0Ω

I = 90.0V / 30.0Ω

I = 3 Amps (Amps is the unit of current)

Thus, the current in the circuit is 3 Amps

Using the right amount of significant figures, calculate the answer to the following problem, 215.5+101.02555
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

This is how I figured it out:

  1. 215.5 rounded to one significant figure is 200
  2. 101.02555 rounded to one significant figure is 100.
  3. 200 + 100 = 300.

Hope this helps!

In a Young's double-slit experiment, 610-nm-wavelength light is sent through the slits. The intensity at an angle of 2.95° from
Sliva [168]

Answer:

spacing between the slits is 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

Explanation:

Given data

wavelength = 610 nm

angle = 2.95°

central bright fringe = 85%

to find out

spacing between the slits

solution

we know that spacing between slit is

I = 4I_{0} × cos²∅/2

so

I/4I_{0}  = cos²∅/2

here I/4I_{0} is 85 % = 0.85

so

0.85 = cos²∅/2

cos∅/2 = √0.85

∅ = 2 ×cos^{-1} 0.921954

∅  = 45.56°

∅  = 45.56° ×π/180 = 0.7949 rad

and we know that here

∅  = 2π d sinθ / wavelength

so

d = ∅× wavelength /  ( 2π  sinθ )

put all value

d = 0.795 × 610×10^{-9} / ( 2π  sin2.95 )

d = 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

spacing between the slits is 405.32043 ×10^{-9}  m

Two tuning forks of frequency 480 hz and 484 hz are struck simultaneously. what is the beat frequency resulting from the two sou
umka21 [38]
Ans: Beat frequency = f_b = 4Hz

Explanation: 
The beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference in frequency of the two waves. In other words, the number of beats per second is equal to the difference in frequency. It is due to the destructive and constructive interference. <span>According to this interference, sound will be soft or loud.

Hence. the formula is:
</span>Beat frequency = f_b = |f_2 - f_1|
<span>
Since,
</span>f_1 = 480Hz
f_2 = 484Hz

Therefore,
Beat frequency = f_b = |484 - 480|

=> Beat frequency = f_b = 4Hz

If the net external force acting on a system is zero , then the total momentum of the system is zero
Neporo4naja [7]
If net external force acting on the system is zero, momentum is conserved. That means, initial and final momentum are same → total momentum of the system is zero.
