Answer:

<h3> FOR PARALLEL CONNECTION</h3><h3>I1 = 0.12A</h3><h3>I2 = 0.12A </h3><h3>IT =0.24A</h3><h3>FOR SERIES CONNECTION</h3><h3>I1 = I2 = 0.06A</h3><h3>IT =0.06A</h3><h3 />

Explanation:

According to ohms law, V =ITRt

V is the supply voltage

IT is the total current flowing in the circuit

Rt is the total equivalent resistance

Given R1= R2= 100Ω

V= 12V

FOR PARALLEL CONNECTION;

To calculate the total current IT in the battery, we need to calculate the total equivalent resistance RT first. For a parallel connected circuit, the equivalent resistance in the circuit is the sum of the reciprocal of its individual resistances as shown;

$\frac{1}{RT} = \frac{1}{100} + \frac{1}{100}\\\frac{1}{RT} = \frac{2}{100} \\\frac{RT}{1} = \frac{100}{2}\\$

RT = 50Ω

from the equation above;

IT = V/RT

IT = 12/50

IT = 0.24A

Note that in a parallel connected circuit, different current flows through the resistances but the same voltage is across them.

IT = I1+I2

For current in resistance R1;

I1 = V/R1

I1 = 12/100

I1 = 0.12A

Since both resitance are the same, they will share the total current equally. Therefore I2 = 0.12A

FOR SERIES CONNECTION;

The total equivalent resistance in the circuit will be the sum of their individual resistances.

$RT = R1+ R2$

RT = 100Ω+100Ω

RT = 200Ω

IT = V/RT

IT = 12/200

IT = 0.06A

Since the resistances are connected in series, the same current will flow through them but different voltages. The total current flowing in the circuit will be the same current flowing through the resistors.

Therefore I1 = I2 = 0.06A

A ski lift has a one-way length of 1 km and a vertical rise of200m. The chairs are spaced 20 m apart, and each chair can seatthr

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

a) 68.125 KW

b) 43.04 KW

Explanation:

Distance =d= 1 km

Height = h = 200 m

Spacing between chairs =D= 20 m

No. of people per chair = 3

Speed = V= 10 km/h= 10000m\3600 s=2.8 m/s

mass of chair = 250 kg

Work to operate sky lift

W= mgh

Number of chairs any moment operational = N= 1 km/20=1000m/20=50

So, total mass of chairs = 50 × 250 =12500kg

so, w= mgh=12500×9.8×200=2452500 j

Power is rate of work - we need time for operation time of lift

Time= t = distance/speedf= 1km/(10km/h)=1km/(10 km/3600s)=360s

So, Power P= Work/time=w/t=12500/360=68125 j/s=68.125 KW

Now calculating power for operating speed in 5 sec

We calculate accelleration=a for 5 sec

a= speed / time= V/52.8/5=0.28 m/sec2

for vertical acceleration we calculate θ angle first;

tanθ= height /distance= 200/1000= 0.2

==> θ=11.34°

Vertical acceleration = a₁=a sinθ= 0.28× sin 11.34=0.10835 m/sec2

to calculate height gained during startup use;

S=vit+1/2at2

here s=H

vi=0m/s

t=5 sec

==> H = 0+1/2a₁×t=0.5×0.10835 ×5²=0.5×0.10835×5×5=1.362 m

Total Work =mgH+0.5×m×V²=12500(9.8×1.362+0.5×2.8×2.8)=215240.56 j

Again power = work / time=215240.56/5=43048.112 W=43.04 KW

Explain the necessity of smoothing the output voltage before applying it to a transistor

ra1l [238]

In simple words, smoothing can be defined as the circuit which is done to eliminate the ripple from the yield of a direct current power supply.

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>Necessity of smoothing:</u>

Smoothing can be also applied in the form of a capacitor that acts to decrease or level out variations in a signal. And these capacitors are mostly used after power supply in voltage.
The yield DC voltage of a half-wave rectifier provided in the figure of a sinusoidal wave.
In a method to provide a constant DC voltage from a corrected AC source, a filter or smoothing circuit is required.

If a scale on Earth reads 650 N, what is your mass?

OlgaM077 [116]

If the scale reads 650N, then the mass of whoever it is standing on the scale is

(weight) / (gravity) = (650N) / (9.8 m/s²) = 66.3 kilograms .

It's not MY mass, even if I'm the one standing on the scale.
If I stand on a scale and it reads 650 N, the scale is broken.

When a hot and cold object are placed in contact, the hot one loses energy. Does this violate energy conservation? Why or why no

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

This does not violate the conservation of energy.

Explanation:

This does not violate the conservation of energy because the hot body gives energy in the form of heat to the colder body, this second absorbs energy. This will be the case until both bodies reach the same temperature, reaching thermal equilibrium and reducing the transfer of thermal energy. In this way the energy was only transferred from one body to another but the total energy of the system (body 1 plus body 2) will be the same as in the beginning, respecting the principle of conservation of energy or also called the first principle of thermodynamics .

The part of physics that studies these processes is in turn called heat transfer or heat transfer or thermal transfer. Heat transfer occurs whenever there is a thermal gradient or when two systems with different temperatures come into contact. The process persists until thermal equilibrium is reached, that is, until temperatures are equalized. When there is a temperature difference between two objects or regions close enough, the heat transfer cannot be stopped, it can only be slowed down.

On your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 180 g mass, a 40-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You'r

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

g_x = 3.0 m / s^2

Explanation:

Given:

- Change in length of spring [email protected] = 22.6 cm

- Time taken for 11 oscillations t = 19.0 s

Find:

- The value of gravitational free fall g_x at plant X:

Solution:

- We will assume a simple harmonic motion of the mass for which Time is:

T = 2*pi*sqrt(k / m ) ...... 1

- Sum of forces in vertical direction @equilibrium is zero:

F_net = k*x - m*g_x = 0

(k / m) = (g_x / x) .... 2

- substitute Eq 2 into Eq 1:

2*pi / T = sqrt ( g_x / x )

g_x = (2*pi / T )^2 * x

- Evaluate g_x:

g_x = (2*pi / (19 / 11) )^2 * 0.226

g_x = 3.0 m / s^2
