Answer:

a)3000ohm

b)4.44mA

Explanation:

a) we were given a Nine tree lights connected inparallel across 120-V potential difference, since the resistor are in parallel we use the expresion below

1/R(total)= 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ + 1/R₃ +.... 1/R₉

But according to ohm'law which can be expressed below

V=IR

R=V/I

R(total)= 120/0.36

= 333.33ohm

1/R(total)= 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ + 1/R₃ +.... 1/R₉

R₁=R₂ =R₃ =R₄= R₅=R₆=R₇=R₈=R₉

1/R(total)=9/R

1/333.33= 9/R

R= 3000ohm

Therefore, the resistance is 3000ohm

b)the bulbs were connected in series here, then for series connection we use below expression

R₁=R₂ =R₃ =R₄= R₅=R₆=R₇=R₈=R₉

R(total)=9R

= 9*3000

=27000ohm

I=VR

I=V/R

I= 120/27000

= 4.44*10⁻³A

4.44mA

Therefore, the current is 4.4mA

On Mars gravity is one-third that on Earth. What would be the mass on Mars of a person who has a mass of 90 kilograms (kg) on Ea
snow_tiger [21]

Answer: The person will still have a mass of 90kg on Mars

Explanation: The Truth is, the mass of a body remains constant from place to place. It is the weight which is equal to {mass of body * acceleration due to gravity{g}} that varies from place to place since it is dependent on {g}.

In this case the person will have a Weight of 90*9.8 = 882N on Earth.

{ "g" on Earth is 9.8m/s²}

And a Weight of 90*3.3 = 297N on Mars.

{ From the question "g" on Mars is {9.8m/s²}/3 which is 3.3m/s²}

From this analysis you notice that the WEIGHT of the person Varies but the MASS remained Constant at 90kg.

an object is dropped from a height of 25 meters. at what velocity will it hit the ground? a 7.0 m/s b 11 m/s c 22 m/s d 49 m/s e
kipiarov [429]
Assuming that the object starts at rest, we know the following values:

distance = 25m
acceleration = 9.81m/s^2 [down]
initial velocity = 0m/s

we want to find final velocity and we don't know the time it took, so we will use the kinematics equation without time in it:

Velocity final^2 = velocity initial^2 + 2 × acceleration × distance

Filling everythint in, we have:

Vf^2 = 0^2 + (2)(-9.81)(-25)
The reason why the values are negative is because they are going in the negative direction

Vf^2 = 490.5

Take the square root of that

Final velocity = 22.15m/s which is answer c
