Answer:

Sum of the power dissipated by each resistor connected in parallel.

Solution:

As per the question:

Let the equal value resistor be of R' \Omega each.

In parallel, the equivalent resistance is given by:

\frac{1}{R_{e}} = \frac{1}{R'} + \frac{1}{R'}

R_{e} = \frac{R'^{2}}{2R'} = \frac{R}{2}

The power dissipated in parallel is given by:

P_{d} = \frac{V^{2}}{R_{e}}

P_{d} = \frac{V^{2}}{\frac{R}{2}}

P_{d} = \frac{2V^{2}}{R}                                                 (1)

Also, it can be seen that the overall power dissipated in the resistors is equal to the sum of the power dissipated in each resistor.

Now,

Power dissipated in one resistor, P = \frac{V^{2}}{R}

Sum of the power dissipated in each resistor, P = \frac{V^{2}}{R} + \frac{V^{2}}{R} = \frac{2V^{2}}{R}         (2)

Thus from eqn (1) and (2), we can say that the sum of the power in the two resistors connected in parallel is equal.

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the two equal resistance be R. the voltage of the source is V.

When the tow resistance are connected in paralel, then the equivalent resistance is R/2 .

Power across this parallel combination

P = 2V²/R

Now when they are connected across the voltage source individually,

P1 = V²/R

P2 = V²/R

So, P = P1 + P2

Thus, the total power is the sum of the individual powers.

An object of mass 3.07 kg, moving with an initial velocity of 5.07 m/s, collides with and sticks to an object of mass 2.52 kg wi
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

This is an inelastic collision. This means, unfortunately, that KE cannot save you, at least in the problem's current form.  

Let's see what conservation of momentum in both directions does ya:

Conservation in the x direction:

Only 1 object here has a momentum in the x direction initally.  

m1v1i + 0 = (m1 + m2)(vx)

3.09(5.10) = (3.09 + 2.52)Vx

Vx = 2.81 m/s

Explanation:

Conservation in the y direction:

Again, only 1 object here has initial velocity in the y:

0 + m2v2i = (m1 +m2)Vy

(2.52)(-3.36) = (2.52 + 3.09)Vy

Vy = -1.51 m/s

++++++++++++++++++++

Now that you have Vx and Vy of the composite object, you can find the final velocity by doing Vf = √Vx^2 + Vy^2)

Vf = √(2.81)^2 + (-1.51)^2

Vf = 3.19 m/s

a race car accelerates uniformly from 18.5m/s to 46.1m/s in 2.4 seconds. determine the acceleration of the car and the distance
8_murik_8 [283]

The car's (average) acceleration would be

a=\dfrac{46.1\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}-18.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}}{2.4\,\mathrm s}=11.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}

The car's position over time would be given by

x=v_0t+\dfrac12at^2

so that after 2.4 seconds, the car will have traveled a distance of

x=\left(18.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)(2.4\,\mathrm s)+\dfrac12\left(11.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)(2.4\,\mathrm s)^2

\implies x=77.5\,\mathrm m

During a lab investigation, students added four 50 g masses to two boxes and arranged the boxes so that they were motionless on
IceJOKER [234]

When the resultant force is not equal to zero termed an unbalanced force. By procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

<h3>What is an unbalanced force?</h3>

The forces operating on a body are known as unbalanced forces when the resulting force exerted on it is not equal to zero.

Unbalanced forces acting on the body, causing it to modify its state of motion. To further grasp the nature of imbalanced forces.

<h3 />

The following reasons by which we can understand the unbalanced force caused by the box.

Due to these two reasons, books will move up.

By adding another mass to box 2. The box becomes lighter. As the box becomes lighter the gravity force acting on the box will be less due to which the box easily can move up.

By removing the two masses from box 1. Due to which other become heavier other becomes heavier pulling it down causing box 1 one to go up.

Hence by procedures 4 and 5 students observe an unbalanced upward force on Box 1. Hence option 1 is right for the problem.

To learn more about the unbalanced force refer to the link;

Dani and Gina are pushing a box. Dani pushes with 257 N of force and Gina pushes with 86 N of force.
Advocard [28]

Answer:

Pushing from the same direction: 343 N

Pushing from opposite directions: 171 N

Explanation:

If Dani and Gina are pushing in the same direction then you would add up the forces they are pushing with since the force is applied in the same direction.

257N+86N=343 N

If Dani and Gina are pushing in the opposite direction then you would subtract the forces they are pushing with because they are going against each other.

257N-86N=171 N

Hope this helped! :)
