Answer:

39.) Current = 1.5 A

40.) B

Explanation:

Given that three 12 Ohms resistors are connected in parallel.

The equivalent resistance R will be

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

Substitute the values into the formula

1/R = 1/12 + 1/12 + 1/12

1/R = 3/12

Find the reciprocal of both sides

R = 12/3

R = 4 Ohms

From Ohm's law,

V = IR

Where V = 6v

Substitute V and the R into the formula and make current I the subject of formula

6 = I × 4

I = 6/4

I = 1.5 A

Therefore, the resulting current is 1.5 Ampere.

40.) If the devices and outlets in each circuit in a household are wired in parallel, The main reason for this is

Plugging in more devices decreases the total resistance on the circuit.

Because, the sum of resistance of resistors in parallel is less than the least resistance of a resistor is the circuit. Also, they will all share the same amount of voltage because there is no voltage drop.

300N effort is applied to lift the load of 900N by using a first class lever. If the distance between the load and fulcrum is 20
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Effort=300N

Load=900N

Load distance=20m

Now,

Ed=(L*Ld)/E

Ed=(900*20)/300

Ed=1800/300

Ed=6m

Salmon often jump waterfalls to reach their
____ [38]

Answer:

Using the range formula R = v^2 sin 2 theta / g

or v^2 = R * g / sin 86.4

v^2 = 3.14 m * 9.81 m/s2 / .998

v^2 = 30.9 m^2 / s^2

v = 5.56 m/s

This hasn't  really proved the question - this would give

vy = 5.56 * sin 43.2 = 3.81 m/s

vx = 5.56 * cos 43.2. = 4.05 m/s

t = 1.57 / 4.05 = .387 sec to reach the waterfall

h = 3.81 * .387 - 4.9 (.387)^2 = .74 m     well above the height of the falls

There seems another way to do this

vy / vx = tan 43.2       vy = .939 vx

h = vy t - 1/2 g t^2       and t = 1.57 / vx

h = 1.57 tan 43.2 - 4.9 (1.57 / vx)^2

Solving for vx I get vx = 3.26 m/s    vy = 3.06 m/s  v = 4.47 m/s
