Answer:

0.2 J

Explanation:

The pendulum forms a right triangle, with hypotenuse of 50 cm and base of 30 cm. The height of this triangle can be found with Pythagorean theorem:

c² = a² + b²

(50 cm)² = a² + (30 cm)²

a = 40 cm

The height of the triangle is 40 cm. The height of the pendulum when it is at the bottom is 50 cm. So the end of the pendulum is lifted by 10 cm. Assuming the mass is concentrated at the end of the pendulum, the potential energy is:

PE = mgh

PE = (0.200 kg) (9.8 N/kg) (0.10 m)

PE = 0.196 J

Rounding to one significant figure, the potential energy is 0.2 J.

Brayden and Riku now use their skills to work a problem. Find the equivalent resistance, the current supplied by the battery and

Liono4ka [1.6K]

a) $5 \Omega$ , 1.6 A

b) $6 \Omega$ , 1.33 A

Explanation:

In this situation, we have two resistors connected in series.

The equivalent resistance of resistors in series is equal to the sum of the individual resistances, so in this circuit:

$R=R_1+R_2$

where

$R_1=4\Omega$

$R_2=1 \Omega$

Therefore, the equivalent resistance is

$R=4+1=5 \Omega$

Now we can use Ohm's Law to find the current flowing through the circuit:

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

where

V = 8 V is the voltage supplied by the battery

$R=5\Omega$ is the equivalent resistance of the circuit

Substituting,

$I=\frac{8}{5}=1.6 A$

The two resistors are connected in series, therefore the current flowing through each resistor is the same, 1.6 A.

In this part, a third resistor is added in series to the circuit; so the new equivalent resistance of the circuit is

$R=R_1+R_2+R_3$

where:

$R_1=4\Omega\\R_2=1\Omega\\R_3=1\Omega$

Substituting, we find the equivalent resistance:

$R=4+1+1=6 \Omega$

Now we can find the current through the circuit by using again Ohm's Law:

$I=\frac{V}{R}$

where

V = 8 V is the voltage supplied by the battery

$R=6\Omega$ is the equivalent resistance

Substituting,

$I=\frac{8}{6}=1.33 A$

And the three resistors are connected in series, therefore the current flowing through each resistor is the same, 1.33 A.

What advantages do space travelers have using Newton’s first law of motion?

Lina20 [59]

They can continue moving without the need of an external force

Explanation:

Newton's first law of motion states that:

"An object in motion at constant velocity (or at rest) will continue moving at constant velocity (or will stay at rest) unless acted upon an external force"

In normal daily life, we normally experience something different: when we throw an object on a table, for instance, we notice that the object will eventually stop, instead of keep moving. This is because there is another force acting on the object, the force of friction, opposite to the motion, that "resists" the motion of the object eventually bringing it to a stop.

In space, however, there is no force of friction or air resistance. Therefore, Newton's first law can be applied: and so, if space travellers are in a ship, and this ship is moving at a certain constant velocity, it will keep moving at this velocity without slowing down, and no external force would be needed in order to keep the ship in motion.
