<h2>Answer:</h2>

786Ω and 20.32Ω respectively.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(a) Given a number of resistors each with its own resistance, the largest resistance can be obtained when these resistors are connected in series.

From the question, the resistors have the following resistances;

36.0-Ω, 50.0-Ω , and 700-Ω

Now, when they are connected in series, the total resistance (R) obtainable is given by the sum of these individual resistances as follows;

R = 36.0-Ω + 50.0-Ω + 700-Ω

R = 786Ω

Therefore, the largest resistance that can be obtained by connecting  a 36.0-Ω , a 50.0-Ω , and a 700-Ω resistor together is 786Ω

(b) Similarly, given a number of resistors each with its own resistance, the smallest resistance can be obtained when these resistors are connected in parallel.

From the question, the resistors have the following resistances;

36.0-Ω, 50.0-Ω , and 700-Ω

Now, when they are connected in parallel, the total resistance (R) obtainable is given by using the relation as follows;

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{1}{36.0} + \frac{1}{50.0} + \frac{1}{700.0}

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{35000+25200+1800}{1260000}

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{62000}{1260000}

\frac{1}{R} = \frac{62}{1260}

R = \frac{1260}{62}

R = 20.32Ω

Therefore, the smallest resistance that can be obtained by connecting  a 36.0-Ω , a 50.0-Ω , and a 700-Ω resistor together is 20.32Ω

A neutral atom of uranium (U) has 146 neutrons and a mass number of 238. How many protons does it have?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

92 protons

Explanation:

The mass number is 238 , so the nucleus has  <u>238  particles</u> in total, including <u>146 neutrons</u>.  So to calculate the number of neutrons we have to subtract:  238  −  146  =  92

Light of wavelength 630 nm is incident on a long, narrow slit. Determine the angular deflection of the first diffraction minimum
asambeis [7]

Answer:

a) 1.8°

b) 0.18°

c) 0.018°

Explanation:

Wavelength (λ) = 630nm = 630 *10^-9m

The equation that describes the angular deflection of a dark band is

Wsin(βm) = mλ

w = width of the single slit

λ = wavelength of the light

βm = angular deflection of the mth dark band.

a) In order to get the angular deflection of the first dark band for a slit with 0.02mm width, substitute w = 0.02mm = 0.02*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

0.02*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 0.02*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 0.0315

β1 = Sin^-1(0.0315)

= 1.8°

b) substitute w = 0.2mm = 0.2*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

0.2*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 0.2*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 0.00315

β1 = Sin^-1(0.00315)

= 0.18°

c) substitute w = 2mm = 2*10^-3 , m = 1 , λ= 630*10^-9

2*10^-3 sin(β1) = 1 * 630*10^-9

Sin(β1) = 630 * 10^-9 / 2*10^-3

Sin(β1) = 3.15*10^-4

β1 = Sin^-1(3.15*10^-4)

= 0.018°

The experiments will involve two billiard balls of known masses, m₁ and m₂, and velocities u₁ and u₂. The two are allowed to collide and the velocities of the balls after the collision v₁ and v₂ are recorded.

The momentum before and after the collision is then calculated as follows:

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

<h3>What is the statement of the law of conservation of momentum?</h3>

The law of the conservation of momentum states that the momentum before and after collision in a system of colliding bodies is conserved

The momentum of a body is calculated using the formula below:

Momentum = mass * velocity.

Hence, for the two billiard balls, the momentum before and after the collision is conserved.

Suppose the coefficient of static friction between the road and the tires on a car is 0.638 and the car has no negative lift. Wh
larisa [96]

Answer:

12.6332454263 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of car

v = Velocity of the car

\mu = Coefficient of static friction = 0.638

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

r = Radius of turn = 25.5 m

When the car is on the verge of sliding we have the force equation

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=\mu mg\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\mu gr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{0.638\times 9.81\times 25.5}\\\Rightarrow v=12.6332454263\ m/s

The speed of the car that will put it on the verge of sliding is 12.6332454263 m/s
