Answer:

2.6 m

Explanation:

From work energy theorem we deduce that

0.5mv^{2}=fd

The kinetic energy equals to the work dine against friction energy.

Where m represent mass, v is the velocity, f is the frictional force and d is unknown distance that the player slides.

Making d the subject of the formula then d=\frac {mv^{2}}{2f}

Then by substituting 450N for f, 65 kg for m and 6 m/s for v we obtain

d=\frac {65*6^{2}}{2*450}=2.6m

Brayden and Riku now use their skills to work a problem. Find the equivalent resistance, the current supplied by the battery and
Liono4ka [1.6K]

a) 5 \Omega, 1.6 A

b) 6 \Omega, 1.33 A

Explanation:

a)

In this situation, we have two resistors connected in series.

The equivalent resistance of resistors in series is equal to the sum of the individual resistances, so in this circuit:

R=R_1+R_2

where

R_1=4\Omega

R_2=1 \Omega

Therefore, the equivalent resistance is

R=4+1=5 \Omega

Now we can use Ohm's Law to find the current flowing through the circuit:

I=\frac{V}{R}

where

V = 8 V is the voltage supplied by the battery

R=5\Omega is the equivalent resistance of the circuit

Substituting,

I=\frac{8}{5}=1.6 A

The two resistors are connected in series, therefore the current flowing through each resistor is the same, 1.6 A.

b)

In this part, a third resistor is added in series to the circuit; so the new equivalent resistance of the circuit is

R=R_1+R_2+R_3

where:

R_1=4\Omega\\R_2=1\Omega\\R_3=1\Omega

Substituting, we find the equivalent resistance:

R=4+1+1=6 \Omega

Now we can find the current through the circuit by using again Ohm's Law:

I=\frac{V}{R}

where

V = 8 V is the voltage supplied by the battery

R=6\Omega is the equivalent resistance

Substituting,

I=\frac{8}{6}=1.33 A

And the three resistors are connected in series, therefore the current flowing through each resistor is the same, 1.33 A.
