Answer:0.45ohms

Explanation:

Let R be there equivalent resistance

1/R=1/r+1/r+1/r

1/R=1/5+1/1+1/1

1/R=1/5+2

1/R=(1+10)/5

1/R=11/5

Cross multiplying we get

11R=5

Divide both sides by 11

11R ➗ 11=5 ➗ 11

R=0.45ohms

20.What factor is more important in determining electrical force

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

20.The first factor is the amount of charge on each object. The greater the charge, the greater the electric force. The second factor is the distance between the charges. The closer together the charges are, the greater the electric force is

A disk has a radius of 30 cm and a mass of 0.3 kg and is turning at 3.0 rev/s. A trickle of sand falls onto the disk at a distan

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

The mass of the sand that will fall on the disk to decrease the is 0.3375 kg

Explanation:

Moment before = Moment after

$I \omega_i = I \omega_f +mr^2 \omega_f\\\\mr^2 \omega_f = I \omega_i - I \omega_f \\\\m = \frac{ I \omega_i - I \omega_f}{r^2 \omega_f }$

where;

I is moment of inertia = Mr² = 0.3 x (0.3)² = 0.027 kg.m²

substitute this in the above equation;

$m = \frac{ 0.027[3(2 \pi) - 2(2 \pi)]} {0.2^2 * 6\pi } = \frac{ 0.027[6 \pi - 4\pi]} {0.2^2 * 4\pi }\\\\m = 0.3375kg$

Therefore, the mass of the sand that will fall on the disk to decrease the is 0.3375 kg

At what altitude above the earth's surface would the acceleration due to gravity be 4.9 m/s^2? Assume the mean radius of the ear

Mandarinka [93]

We apply the gravity calculation expressed in the formula: g=GM/r2
where G is the gravitational constant, m is the mass and r is the radius
r=√GM/g
(1) Radius = √6.674e-11*5.972e24/8 = 7058 kms Earth radius or surface of earth from center of earth= 6400 kmsSo r= 658 kms from surface of earth.
Gravity 8m/s2 will be at 658 kms from surface of earth.
(2) half gravity= 9.8/2= 4.9 m/s2 Radius=√6.674e-11*5.972e24/4.9 = 9019 kms Half Gravity will exist at 9019-6400= 2619 kms from surface of earth.

Three basic electrical effects occur when an electric current flows in a conductor: A magnetic field is set up around the conduc

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

A drop in voltage occurs

Explanation:

When electric current flows through a conduct, there are three basic electrical effects that occur to the conductor;

1. A magnetic field is set up around the conductor,

A magnetic field is formed around a conductor when current flows through it which makes it acts like a magnet. Application is used in electric bells.

2. Heat is generated, and

The heating effect of current is due to the conversion of some of the electrical energy that passes through the conductor, into heat energy. Application of heat effect include electric iron, microwave oven, electric bulb, hair straightener etc.

H = I²Rt

3. A drop in voltage occurs

Voltage drop is as a result of current passing through the impedance offers by the conductor or circuit elements. When current passes through a conductor, the resistance offers opposition to the flow of the electric current according to Ohm's law.
