Answer:

7.33 Ω

Explanation:

10Ω resistor and a 5 Ω are connected in parallel

so,

R₁=(10X5)/(10+5)

   =(50/15) Ω

   =3.33 Ω

This pair is then connected in series in with another 4 Ω resistor

R₂=R₁+4

    =(3.33+4) Ω

    =7.33 Ω

Answer:

s = 3 m

Explanation:

Let t be the time the accelerating car starts.

Let's assume the vehicles are point masses so that "passing" takes no time.

the position of the constant velocity and accelerating vehicles are

s = vt = 40(t + 2)  cm

s = ½at² = ½(20)(t)² cm

they pass when their distance is the same

½(20)(t)² = 40(t + 2)

10t² = 40t + 80

0 = 10t² - 40t - 80

0 = t² - 4t - 8

t = (4±√(4² - 4(1)(-8))) / 2(1)

t = (4± 6.928) / 2  ignore the negative time as it has not occurred yet.

t = 5.464 s

s = 40(5.464 + 2) = 298.564 cm

300 cm when rounded to the single significant digit of the question numerals.

Astronomers build optical telescopes on tops of mountains because a. there is less air to dim the light. b. the seeing is better
V125BC [204]

Answer: choices a and b

Explanation:

Telescope can be defined as am optical instrument which is designed to observe the distant objects clear and nearer. It comprises of arrangement of lenses which allow the rays of light to be collected. The collected light is focused and the image so produced is magnified in the form of an image. The telescopes are prepared and manufactured on mountains top as this will help in preventing the distortion of light obtain from the star due to the fluctuation of air mass in the atmosphere. The atmospheric distortion affects the resolution, and affects the vision. The atmospheric pressure is low at the mountain tops so it will help in better observation of the sky.
