1) Let's start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the three resistors in parallel, R_2, R_3, R_4:
\frac{1}{R_{234}}= \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}+ \frac{1}{R_4}= \frac{1}{4.5 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{1.3 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{6.3 \Omega}=1.15 \Omega^{-1}
From which we find
R_{234}= \frac{1}{1.15 \Omega^{-1}}=0.9 \Omega

Now all the resistors are in series, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is the sum of all the resistances:
R_{eq}=R_1 + R_{234} = 5 \Omega + 0.9 \Omega = 5.9 \Omega
So, the correct answer is D) 


2) Let's start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel:
\frac{1}{R_{23}} =  \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}= \frac{1}{5 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{5 \Omega}= \frac{2}{5 \Omega}
From which we find
R_{23} = 2.5 \Omega

And these are connected in series with a resistor of 10 \Omega, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is
R_{eq}=10 \Omega + 2.5 \Omega = 12.5 \Omega

And by using Ohm's law we find the current in the circuit:
I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}= \frac{9 V}{12.5 \Omega}=0.72 A
So, the correct answer is C).


3) Let' start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel:
\frac{1}{R_{23}} =  \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}= \frac{1}{5 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{5 \Omega}= \frac{2}{5 \Omega}
From which we find
R_{23} = 2.5 \Omega
Then these are in series with all the other resistors, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is
R_{eq}=R_1 + R_{23}+R_4 = 5 \Omega + 2.5 \Omega + 5 \Omega =12.5 \Omega

And by using Ohm's law we find the current flowing in the circuit:
I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}= \frac{12 V}{12.5 \Omega}=0.96 A

And so the voltage read by the voltmeter V1 is the voltage drop across the resistor 2-3:
V= I R_{23} = (0.96 A)(2.5 \Omega)=2.4 V
So, the correct answer is D).


4) Again, let's start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel:
\frac{1}{R_{23}} = \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}= \frac{1}{13 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{18 \Omega}=0.13 \Omega^{-1}
From which we find
R_{23} = 7.55 \Omega

Now all the resistors are in series, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is:
R_{eq}= R_1 + R_{23}+R_4=8.5 \Omega+7.55 \Omega + 3.2 \Omega = 19.25 \Omega

The current in the circuit is given by Ohm's law
I= \frac{V}{R_{Eq}}= \frac{15 V}{19.25 \Omega}=0.78 A

Now we can compare the voltage drops across the resistors. Resistor 1:
V_1 = I R_1 = (0.78 A)(8.5 \Omega)=6.63 V
Resistor 2 and resistor 3 are in parallel, so they have the same voltage drop:
V_2 = V_3 = V_{23} = I R_{23} = (0.78 A)(7.55 \Omega)=5.89 V
Resistor 4:
V_4 = I R_4 = (0.78 A)(3.2 \Omega)=2.50 V

So, the greatest voltage drop is on resistor 1, so the correct answer is D).


5) the figure shows a circuit with a resistor R and a capacitor C, so it is an example of RC circuit. Therefore, the correct answer is D).

6) The circuit is the same as part 4), so the calculations are exactly the same. Therefore, the power dissipated on resistor 3 is
P_3 = I_3^2 R_3 =  \frac{V_3^2}{R_3}= \frac{(5.89 V)^2}{18 \Omega}=2.0 W
So, correct answer is B).

7) The circuit is the same as part 4), so we can use exactly the same calculation, and we immediately see that the resistor with lowest voltage drop was R4 (2.50 V), so the correct answer is B) R4.

Electron kinetic energies are often measured in units of electron-volts (1 eV 1.6 x 10-19 J), which is the kinetic energy of an
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

4.1 eV

Explanation:

Kinetic energy, K = 0.8 eV = 0.8 x 1.6 x 10^-19 J = 1.28 x 10^-19 J

wavelength, λ = 253.5 nm = 253.5 x 10^-9 m

According to the Einstein energy equation

E = W_{o}+K

Where, E be the energy incident, Wo is the work function and K is the kinetic energy.

h = 6.634 x 10^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

E=\frac{hc}{\lambda }=\frac{6.634 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{253.5\times 10^{-9}}=7.85 \times 10^{-19} J

So, the work function, Wo = E - K

Wo = 7.85 x 10^-19 - 1.28 x 10^-19

Wo = 6.57 x 10^-19 J

Wo = 4.1 eV

Thus, the work function of the metal is 4.1 eV.

What invisible force will cause you to fall to the earth if you fall off your bed?
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The answer to this is falling all the way through the Earth is impossible, since its core is molten. ... As you approached the center of the earth the pull of gravity would decline and eventually (at the center) cease, but inertia would keep you going.
