The effective resistance is the reciprocal of

1/4 + 1/3 + 1/6 =

3/12 + 4/12 + 2/12 =

9/12 Siemens

The reciprocal is 12/9 ohms.

That's 4/3 or 1.333 ohms.

Answer:

1 1/3 or 1.33333

Explanation:

First of all, you should note that the answer will be smaller than the smallest resistor. That means that the answer should be less than 3. Let's see if it is.

1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 = 1/Rt

  • R1 = 4
  • R2 = 3
  • R3 = 6

All resistors are in ohms.

1/4 + 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/Rt   You could do this using decimals, but the usual way is to use fractions.

The Common Denominator is 12

3/12 + 4/12 + 2/12 = 1/Rt

9/12 = 1/Rt                           Turn 9/12 upside down

12/9 = Rt

1 3/9 = RT

1 1/3 = Rt

1.3333 = Rt

The answer is under 3 so we know it should be right.

A uniform disk, a thin hoop, and a uniform sphere, all with the same mass and same outer radius, are each free to rotate about a
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

4 hoop, disk, sphere

Explanation:

Because

We are given data that

Hoop, disk, sphere have Same mass and radius

So let

And Initial angular velocity, = 0

The Force on each be F

And Time = t

Also let

Radius of each = r

So let's find the inertia shall we!!

I1 = m r² /2

= 0.5 mr² the his is for dis

I2 = m r² for hoop

And

Moment of inertia of sphere wiil be

I3 = (2/5) mr²

= 0.4 mr²

So

ωf = ωi + α t

= 0 + ( τ / I ) t

= ( F r / I ) t

So we can see that

ωf is inversely proportional to moment of inertia.

And so we take the

Order of I ( least to greatest ) :

I3 (sphere) , I1 (disk) , I2 (hoop) , ,

Order of ωf: ( least to greatest)

That of omega xf is the reverse of inertial so

hoop, disk, sphere

Option - 4

In a thundercloud there may be an electric charge of +40 C near the top of the cloud and -40 C near the bottom of the cloud. The
Ratling [72]

Answer:

Electric force, F=-3.59\times 10^6\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric charge 1, q_1=+40\ C

Electric charge 2, q_2=-40\ C

Distance, d=2\ km=2\times 10^3\ m

To find,

The electric force between these two sets of charges.

Solution,

There exists a force between two electric charges and this force is called electrostatic force. It is equal to the product of electric charged divided by square of distance between them.

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

k is the electrostatic constant

F=8.99\times 10^9\times \dfrac{40\times (-40)}{(2\times 10^3)^2}

F=-3.59\times 10^6\ N

So, the electric force between these two sets of charges is -3.59\times 10^6\ N.

Elan Coil [88]
A) Geothermal
B) Hydroelectric
C)Biomass
D) Wind

I assume this is the four options you had, correct?

i think that biomass is the only one that would release the greenhouse gases. I once heard, it may not be true, that biomass has more co2 released than coal.
