Answer:

The value of smaller resistor is 248 Ω.

Explanation:

Voltage divider circuit is used to convert a higher voltage to a smaller voltage with the help of resistors which are connected in parallel.

As shown in the circuit, Vs is the source voltage, R₁ and R₂ are the two resistors and V₀ is the output voltage.

Applying KVL in the circuit, the output voltage is given by :

V_{0} = \frac{V_{s}R_{2}  }{R_{1} +  R_{2}  }

According to the problem, R₂ = 310Ω , V₀ = 5 V and Vs = 9 V. Substitute these values in the above equation.

5 = \frac{9\times310  }{R_{1} +  310  }

R_{1}+310 = \frac{9\times310}{5}

R_{1} = 558 - 310

R₁ = 248Ω

aliina [53]

Answer:

We want to describe how to graph a linear equation.

Explanation:

The given equation is:

y = -4x - 1

a) To graph it, we need to find two points that belong to the line, then we graph the points, and then we connect them with a line.

To get the points, we just need to evaluate the function in two different values of x.

for x = 0

y = -4*0 - 1 = -1

So we have the point (0, -1)

for x = 1

y = -4*1 - 1 = -5

So we have the point (1, - 5)

Now we just need to find these two points and connect them with a line, the graph can be seen below.

b) To check if the graph is correct we can see two things:

in y = -4*x - 1

The y-intercept is -1, this means that the graph should intersect the y-axis at  y = -1

The slope is -4, this means that for each unit increase on x, we should see that the y-value decreases by 4.

Checking those two things we can see if our graph is correct or not.

A piece of iron of mass 200g and tempreture 300°C is dropped into 1.00 kg of water of tempreture 20°C. Predict the final equilib
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The final equilibrium T_{f} = 25.7[°C]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we must have a clear concept of heat transfer. Heat transfer is defined as the transmission of heat from one body that is at a higher temperature to another at a lower temperature.

That is to say for this case the heat is transferred from the iron to the water, the temperature of the water will increase, while the temperature of the iron will decrease. At the end of the process a thermal balance is found, i.e. the temperature of iron and water will be equal.

The temperature of thermal equilibrium will be T_f.

The heat absorbed by water will be equal to the heat rejected by Iron.

Q_{iron} = Q_{water}

Heat transfer can be found by means of the following equation.

Q_{iron}=m*C_{piron}*(T_{i}-T_{f})

where:

Qiron = Iron heat transfer [kJ]

m = iron mass = 200 [g] = 0.2 [kg]

T_i = Initial temperature of the iron = 300 [°C]

T_f = final temperature [°C]

Q_{water}=m*C_{pwater}*(T_{f}-T_{iwater})

Cp_iron = 437 [J/kg*°C]

Cp_water = 4200 [J/kg*°C]

0.2*437*(300-T_{f})=1*4200*(T_{f}-20)\\26220-87.4*T_{f}=4200*T_{f}-84000\\26220+84000=4200*T_{f}+87.4*T_{f}\\110220 = 4287.4*T_{f}\\T_{f}=25.7[C]
