Answer:

option (b)

Explanation:

Let the resistance of each resistor is R.

In series combination,

The effective resistance is Rs.

rs = r + R + R + .... + n times = NR

Let V be the source of potential difference.

Power in series

Ps = v^2 / Rs = V^2 / NR ..... (1)

In parallel combination

the effective resistance is Rp

1 / Rp = 1 / R + 1 / R + .... + N times

1 / Rp = N / R

Rp = R / N

Power is parallel

Rp = v^2 / Rp = N V^2 / R    ..... (2)

Divide equation (1) by equation (2) we get

Ps / Pp = 1 / N^2

At one instant, a 17.0-kg sled is moving over a horizontal surface of snow at 4.10 m/s. After 6.15 s has elapsed, the sled stops
jasenka [17]

Answer:

force = 11.33 kg-m/s^{2}

Explanation:

given data:

sled mass = 17.0 kg

inital velocity (U) = 4.10 m/s

elapsed time (T) 6.15 s

final velocity (V) = 0

final momentum P2 = 0

Initial momentum of sledge is

P_{1}=mU

P_{1}= 17.0 * 4.10 = 69.7 kg- m/s

from newton second law of motion

F=\frac{\Delta P}{\Delta t}

F = \frac{P_{1}-P_{2}}{T}

Kgm/s^2

F = \frac{69.7-0}{6.15}= 11.33[tex]kg-m/s^{2}[/tex]

Verizon [17]
The correct answer among the choices is option D. Density is not one of the properties included in the ideal gas law. The law is expressed as: PV=nRT. As we can see, the pressure, the volume and the temperature of the gas are included in the law.
