Three resistors with the values of R_1, R_2, and R_3 are connected in parallel. Which of the following expresses the total resis
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer: Option d.)

R_eq = (1/R_1 + 1/R_2 + 1/R_3)^-1

Explanation:

Since, there are three resistors connected in parallel, the reciprocal of the total resistance of the resistor combination (R_eq) is obtained by adding the reciprocal of each resistance.

i.e 1/R_eq = (1/R_1 + 1/R_2 + 1/R_3)

So, R_eq = (1/R_1 + 1/R_2 + 1/R_3)^-1

Thus, the total resistance (R_eq) is equal to the inverse of the sum of the reciprocal of each resistance.

A hot air balloon is traveling vertically upward at a constant speed of 4.5 m/s. When it is 28 m above the ground, a package is
ella [17]

Answer:

1.97 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 21=4.5t+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow 21=-4.5t-4.9t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.9t^2+4.5t-28=0\\\Rightarrow 49t^2+45t-280=0

Solving the above equation we get

t=\frac{-45+\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}, \frac{-45-\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}\\\Rightarrow t=1.97, -2.89

So, the time the package was in the air is 1.97 seconds

The torque exerted by a crowbar on an object increases with increased _______.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

force and leverage distance

Explanation:

the formula for torque if = force x distance

(the distance above is the leverage distance on the crow bar)

therefore if there is an increase in either the torque or the leverage distance, or both, the torque exerted by the crow bar also increases.

for example

  • lets assume a force of 5 n is applied on the crow bar with a leverage distance of 2 m.

        the torque = 5 x 2 = 10 N.m

  • but if the force was increased to 7 N

        torque = 7 x 2 = 12 N.m

from the illustration above, we can see that the torque increased with an increase in force. There would also be an increase in torque if the distance were to be increased.

A baseball is thrown at an angle of 25 degrees relative to the ground at a speed of 23 m/s. If the ball was caught 42 m from the
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

a) v_{0y} = 9.72 m/s

b) v_{0x} = 20.85 m/s

c) t = 2.01 s

d) h_{max} = 4.82 m

Explanation:

a) The initial vertical velocity is given by:

v_{0y} = v*sin(\theta)

Where:

θ: 25°

v: is the magnitude of the speed = 23 m/s

v_{0y} = 23 m/s*sin(25) = 9.72 m/s

b) The initial horizontal velocity can be calculated as follows:

v_{0x} = v*cos(\theta) = 23 m/s*cos(25) = 20.85 m/s

c) The flight time can be calculated using the following equation:

v_{0x} = \frac{x}{t}

Where:

x: is the total distance = 42 m

t = \frac{x}{v_{0x}} = \frac{42 m}{20.85 m/s} = 2.01 s

d) The maximum height is given by:

v_{fy}^{2} = v_{0y}^{2} - 2gh_{max}

Where:

v_{fy}: is the final vertical velocity =0 (at the maximum heigth)

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h_{max} = \frac{v_{0y}^{2}}{2g} = \frac{(9.72 m/s)^{2}}{2*9.81 m/s^{2}} = 4.82 m

I hope it helps you!
