<span> The crustal plates float on the mantle, convection currents within the mantle act as a current and the plates on top of the mantle simply get carried by that current. Hope this helped :)

he electronics supply company where you work has two different resistors, R1 and R2, in its inventory, and you must measure the
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

R₁ = 50.77 Ω

Explanation:

Since, we know that:

Electric Power = P = VI

but from Ohm's Law:

V = IR

(or) I = V/R

Therefore,

P = V²/R

(OR) R = V²/P

where,

V = Battery Voltage

R = Resistance of combination

FOR SERIES COMBINATION:

R = Rs = (57 V)²/48 W

Rs = 67.69 Ω

but, we know that:

Rs = R₁ + R₂

R₁ + R₂ = 67.69 Ω

R₁ = 67.69 Ω - R₂  __________ eqn (1)

FOR PARALLEL COMBINATION:

R = Rp = (57 V)²/256 W

Rp = 12.69 Ω

but, we know that:

Rp = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂) = 12.69 Ω

using eqn (1) and value of R₁ + R₂, we get

Rp = 12.69  = R₂(67.69 - R₂)/67.69

859.08 = 67.69 R₂ - R₂²

R₂² - 67.69 R₂ + 859.08 = 0

Solving this quadratic equation we get the answers:

Either, R₂ = 50.76 Ω

Either, R₂ = 16.92 Ω

Since, it is stated in the question that R₁ > R₂. Therefore, we choose the second value. So,

<u>R₂ = 16.92 Ω</u>

using this value in eqn (1), we get:

R₁ = 67.69 Ω - 16.92 Ω

<u>R₁ = 50.77 Ω</u>

Why will a delivery truck filled with birds sitting on its floor be heavier than a truck with the same birds flying around insid
34kurt

The reason why a delivery truck filled with birds sitting on the floor be heavier than a truck with the same birds flying around is because when the birds are sitting on the floor, they are adding their weight to the truck.

Meanwhile, if the birds are flying around they aren't resting on the truck or touching it, so therefore their weight wouldn't be added to the truck.

The mass of the truck will remain the same as you cannot change the mass but the weight will vary depending on the items and objects placed in it.

You work at a garden store for the summer, and you lift a 14 kg bag of fertilizer with a force of 227 N.
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

(a) Acceleration of the bag will be a=16.214m/sec^2  

(B) Weight of the bag will be 137.2 N

Explanation:

We have given mass of the bag m = 14 kg

Force with which bag is lifted = 227 N

(A) According to newtons law we force is equal to F = ma , here m is mass and a is acceleration

So 227=14\times a

a=16.214m/sec^2

(b) Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

We know that weight is given by W = mg , here m is mass and g is acceleration due to gravity

So weight W=mg=14\times 9.8=137.2N

So weight of the bag will be 137.2 N
