A particular circuit toolbox contains only 80 Ω resistors and switches, which can be open or closed. Construct a circuit, fillin

g in all four boxes, such that the overall equivalent resistance between A and B is 40 Ω?

3 0

Answer:

Here we need to make parallel connection of two 80 ohm resistors to achieve 40 ohm net resistance.

Explanation:

As we know that the resistances in series add up directly and here we are given with only the resistors of 80 Ω.

So when we connect two resistors of 80 ohm in parallel we get the resultant of 40 ohm.

Mathematically:

\frac{1}{R_p} =\frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R}

\frac{1}{40} =\frac{1}{R} +\frac{1}{R}

\frac{1}{40} =\frac{2}{R}

R=80\Omega gives us the only combination of two resistors in parallel.

The Lamborghini Huracan has an initial acceleration of 0.75g. Its mass, with a driver, is 1510 kg.
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

11109.825 N

Explanation:

Given Data:

total mass =m=1510 kg

initial acceleration (a) =0.75g                  ( g=9.81 m/s² )

F=ma

  = (1510)*( 0.75*9.81)

  = 11109.825 N

A scientist directs monochromatic light toward a single slit in an opaque barrier. The light has a wavelength of 580 nm and the
vredina [299]

Answer:

a) 9.72 mm

b) 4.86 mm

Explanation:

wave length of light  λ is  580 nm = 580 \times 10⁻⁹ m

Width of slit d = 0.215\times 10⁻³ m

Distance of screen D  = 1.8 m.

Width of one fringe = \frac{\lambda\times D}{d}

Putting the values we get fringe width

= \frac{580\times10^{-9}\times1.8}{.000315}

=4.86 mm.

a) Width of central maxima = 2 times width of one fringe

= 2 times 4.86

=9.72 mm

b) width of each fringe except central fringe  is same , no matter what the order is.Only brightness changes .

So width of either of the two first order bright fringe will be same and it will be  

= 4.86 mm.

Explain how tidal forces are causing Earth to slow down.
dybincka [34]

Answer: The tidal forces exerted by the moon are directly associated with the earth's rotation. Due to the strong gravitational pull of the moon, the tidal bulging appears on both the sides on earth and these are region of high tide, and there is gradual rise and fall of sea level.

Because of these tidal effect, the earth is able to rotate only once in each of the orbital period.
