Answer:

R/2

Explanation:

Resistance of full lenght wire = R

Since length is divided into half but even then the resistance of each individual half is same i-e R

If connecetd into parallel mode then we know resultant resistance say 'r' is

1/r=1/R+1/R

or

1/r = 2/R

r= R/2

Which of the following is true when an object of mass m moving on a horizontal frictionless surface hits and sticks to an object
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

c)

Explanation:

A collision is said to be elastic when the total kinetic energy is the same after the collision. The speed of objects that are stuck together will always be less than the initial speed of the object that was in motion given that the other particle was at rest. It is because the kinetic energy of the system was due to the moving object. The objects have a greater overall mass when they are stuck. If the kinetic energy is the same and the mass increases, the velocity must decrease.

Two capacitors, a 15 micro F and a 25 micro F, are connected in parallel to a 60 Hz source. The total capacitive reactance is :_
Stells [14]

Answer:

<em> 3980.89 ohms</em>

Explanation:

The capacitive reactance is expressed as;

X_c = \frac{1}{2 \pi fC}

f is the frequency

C is the capacitance of the capacitor

Given

f = 60H

C = C1+C2 (parallel connection)

C = 15μF + 25μF

C = 40μF

C = 40 * 10^{-6}F

Substitute into the formula:

X_c = \frac{1}{2(3.14)*60*40*10^{-6}}\\X_c =  \frac{1}{0.0002512}\\X_c = 3,980.89

<em>Hence the  total capacitive reactance is 3980.89 ohms</em>

aniked [119]
The name of the scientist who incorrectly theorized that it was the positive charge that moved through a circuit is Benjamin Franklin. Franklin made his famous experiments with a kite in a charged cloud.
He was the scientist that made the electrical notation where the current is given by the direction of the positive charges flow.
