Explanation:

The five basic postulate of kinetic molecular theory includes:

1) All gases consist of large amount and numbers of tiny particles that are far apart from each other and also relative to their size.

2) The collisions between gas particles and gas particles against container walls is refer to as elastic collision.

3) All gas particles are in a continuous random and rapid motion. They possess kinetic energy which is energy of motion.

4) There are no attractive force between gas particles.

5) The temperature of a gas depends on the average kinetic energy of the gas particle.

What current flow (I) is associated with an input voltage of 5.0V and resistors R1 = 1.5 kiloohms and R2 = 0.5 kiloohms? Calcula

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

current in series is 2.50 mA

current in parallel is 13.51 mA

Explanation:

given data

voltage = 5 V

resistors R1 = 1.5 kilo ohms

resistors R2 = 0.5 kilo ohms

to given data

current flow

solution

current flow in series is express as here

current = voltage / resistor .................1

put here all value in equation 1

current = 5 / (1.5 + 0.5)

current = 5 / 2.0

so current = 2.50 mA

and

current flow in parallel is express as

current = voltage / resistor ....................2

put here all value in equation 2

current = 5 / (1/ (1/1.5 + 1/0.5))

current = 5 / 0.37

so current = 13.31 mA

When an astronomer sees certain stars and galaxies that look much redder than expected, what conclusion might the astronomer dra

Ratling [72]

It all comes to the doppler effect, the red shift means that the galaxy is moving away from us. The redshift is a result from the doppler effect, so as the galaxy moves away the wavelength expands, increasing the wavelength which responds to the red light.

vlabodo [156]

This question involves the concepts of average speed, distance, and time.

The average speed of the family is "2.5 mi/hr".

<h3>AVERAGE SPEED</h3>

The average speed is defined as the ratio of the total distance covered with the total time taken to cover it.

$v=\frac{s}{t}$
