Answer:
a) b) d)
Explanation:
The question is incomplete. The Complete question might be
In an inertial frame of reference, a series of experiments is conducted. In each experiment, two or three forces are applied to an object. The magnitudes of these forces are given. No other forces are acting on the object. In which cases may the object possibly remain at rest? The forces applied are as follows: Check all that apply.
a)2 N; 2 N
b) 200 N; 200 N
c) 200 N; 201 N
d) 2 N; 2 N; 4 N
e) 2 N; 2 N; 2 N
f) 2 N; 2 N; 3 N
g) 2 N; 2 N; 5 N
h ) 200 N; 200 N; 5 N
For th object to remain at rest, sum of all forces must be equal to zero. Use minus sign to show opposing forces
a) 2+(-2)=0 here minus sign is to show the opposing firection of force
b) 200+(-200)=0
c) 200+(-201)0
d) 2+2+(-4)=0
e) 2+2+(-2)0
f) 2+2+(-3) 0; 2+(-2)+3
0
g) 2+2+(-5)0; 2+(-2)+5
0
h)200 + 200 +(-5)0; 200+(-200)+5
0
a) , 1.6 A
b) , 1.33 A
Explanation:
a)
In this situation, we have two resistors connected in series.
The equivalent resistance of resistors in series is equal to the sum of the individual resistances, so in this circuit:
where
Therefore, the equivalent resistance is
Now we can use Ohm's Law to find the current flowing through the circuit:
where
V = 8 V is the voltage supplied by the battery
is the equivalent resistance of the circuit
Substituting,
The two resistors are connected in series, therefore the current flowing through each resistor is the same, 1.6 A.
b)
In this part, a third resistor is added in series to the circuit; so the new equivalent resistance of the circuit is
where:
Substituting, we find the equivalent resistance:
Now we can find the current through the circuit by using again Ohm's Law:
where
V = 8 V is the voltage supplied by the battery
is the equivalent resistance
Substituting,
And the three resistors are connected in series, therefore the current flowing through each resistor is the same, 1.33 A.
