Answer:

Explanation:

Given that three resistor of resistance

R1 = 4 Ω

R2 = 6 Ω

R3 = 10 Ω

The resistor are connected in parallel, the equivalent resistance is

1 / Req = 1 / R1 + 1 / R2 + 1 / R3

Rearranging this we have

Req = R1•R2•R3 / (R2•R3 + R1•R3 + R1•R2)

Req = 4 × 6 × 10 / (6×10 + 4 × 10 + 4 × 6)

Req = 240 / (60 + 40 + 24)

Req = 240 / 124

Req = 1.94 Ω

The parallel connection is connected in series with a battery and a resistor.

Resistor resistance is

r = 2 Ω

Supply voltage of the battery is 12V

V = 12V

Let find the current flowing in the circuit.

V = I(Req + r)

I = V / (Req + r)

I = 12 / (1.94 + 2)

I = 12 / 3.94

I = 3.05A

So, this is the current flowing in the circuit and It is the same current that will be shared by the parallel resistance.

We can calculated the voltage across the parallel resistance

From ohms las

V = iR

V = I × Req

V = 3.05 × 1.94

V = 5.92 V.

Then, this the voltage across each parallel resistor.

Then, to know the current in the 10ohms resistance

V = iR

I = V / R3.

I = 5.92 / 10

I = 0.592 A.

The current in the 10 ohms resistor is 0.59A

A certain planet has a radius of 4990 km. If, on the surface of that planet, a 95.0 kg object has a weight of 591 N, then what i
aniked [119]

Answer:

3743.489 kg

Explanation:

F_g = 591 N

G = 6.674x10^-11 constant of gravity

m_1 = 95 kg

m_2 = unknown

r = 4990*1000 =

F_g = G[(m_1*m_2)/r^2]

591 N = 6.674x10^-11[(95*m_2)/4990^2]

8.855 = [(95*m_2)/4990^2]

355631.472 = 95*m_2

m_2 = 3743.489 kg

A student needs to conduct a reaction that combines chemicals A and B to synthesize product AB . If we write this as a chemical
rusak2 [61]

Answer : The number of molecules of A needed to make 5000 molecules of AB will be, 5000

Explanation :

Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

The given balanced chemical reaction is,

A+B\rightarrow AB

As per question, molecule B is an excess reagent because it had enough molecule to make 5000 molecules of AB. So, molecule A is limiting reagent.

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 molecule of AB produced from 1 molecule of A

So, 5000 molecule of AB produced from 5000 molecule of A

Hence, the number of molecules of A needed to make 5000 molecules of AB will be, 5000

Firemen are shooting a stream of water at a burning building using a high-pressure hose that shoots out the water with a speed o
Mrac [35]

Answer:

a)α= 53.13°

b)The velocity at the highest point =  15 m/s

The acceleration at the highest point = 9.8m/s^2

c)h=15 m

V=18.02 m/s

Explanation:

Speed of water ,u= 25 m/s

So the horizontal component of speed u = u cos α

Given that horizontal distance cover by water in 3 s is 45 m.

So We know that in projectile motion horizontal acceleration is zero.

In horizontal direction

Distance = Velocity x time

45 =  u cos α  x 3

u cos α = 45

45 = 25 cos α x 3

 cos α = 45/75

α= 53.13°

So the velocity at the highest point =  u cos α

The velocity at the highest point =  15 m/s

The acceleration at the highest point = 9.8m/s^2

 Now the velocity along vertical direction(Vo) =  u sin α

      Vo= 25 sin 53.13°

Vo =20 m/s

h=V_o.t-\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2

h=20\times 3-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 10\times 3^2

h=15 m

So at 15 m above the ground water will strike .

The y-component of velocity after 3 sec

Vy= Vo - g t

Vy = 20 - 10 x 3

Vy= -10 m/s

The horizontal component of velocity will remain 15 m/s.

The resultant velocity

V=\sqrt{10^2+15^2}\ m/s

V=18.02 m/s
