The newest generation of smart phone uses three different batteries connected in a series simultaneously to extend battery life
azamat

Answer:

7.2 V

Explanation:

The three batteries are connected in series to the terminals of the phone: it means that they are connected along the same branch, so the current flowing through them is the same.

This also means that the potential difference across the phone will be equal to the sum of the voltages provided by each battery.

Here, the voltage provided by each battery is

V = 2.4 V

So, the overall voltage will be

V = 2.4 V + 2.4 V + 2.4 V = 7.2 V

A 5.31 kg object is swung in a vertical circular path on a string 2.99 m long. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

T = 120.3 N

Explanation:

Since, the tension in the rope is acting against both the centripetal force and the weight of the stone. As both act downward towards center of the circle and tension acts towards point of support that is upward. So, tension will be equal to the sum of centripetal force and weight of the stone:

Tension = Centripetal Force + Weight of Stone

T = mv²/r + mg

where,

m = mass of stone = 5.31 kg

r = radius of circle = length of string = 2.99 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

T = (5.31 kg)(6.2 m/s)²/(2.99 m) + (5.31 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

T = 68.27 N + 52.03 N

<u>T = 120.3 N</u>

A flat sheet of ice has a thickness of 1.4 cm. It is on top of a flat sheet of crown glass that has a thickness of 3.0 cm. Light
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

t = 2.13 10-10 s , d = 6.39 cm

Explanation:

For this exercise we use the definition of refractive index

        n = c / v

Where n is the refraction index, c the speed of light and v the speed in the material medium.

The refractive indices of ice and crown glass are 1.13 and 1.52, respectively, therefore the speed of the beam in the material medium is

        v = c / n

As the beam strikes perpendicularly, the beam path is equal to the distance of the leaves, there is no refraction, so we can use the uniform motion relationships

        v = d / t

        t = d / v

        t = d n / c

Let's look for the times on each sheet

Ice

        t₁ = 1.4 10⁻² 1.31 / 3 10⁸

        t₁ = 0.6113 10⁻¹⁰ s

Crown glass (BK7)

        t₂ = 3.0 10⁻² 1.52 / 3.0 10⁸

        t₂ = 1.52 10⁻¹⁰ s

Time is a scalar therefore it is additive

         t = t₁ + t₂

         t = (0.6113 + 1.52) 10⁻¹⁰

         t = 2.13 10-10 s

The distance traveled by this time in a vacuum would be

        d = c t

       d = 3 10⁸ 2.13 10⁻¹⁰

       d = 6.39 10⁻² m

       d = 6.39 cm

An adult human is 60 percent water; a third of this water is in extracellular fluid, and 20 percent of extracellular fluid is in
Yanka [14]

Answer:

32 pounds

Explanation:

The amount of water in the 200 pound person is

200 * 60% = 200*0.6 = 120 pounds

Of the 120 pounds, a third of this is extracellular fluid, the amount of extracellular fluid is

120 / 3 = 40 pounds

20 % of this is in the blood, which amounts to

40 * 20% = 40 * 0.2 = 8 pounds

The rest is interstitial fluid, which is

40 - 8 = 32 pounds
