A circuit is built based on the circuit diagram shown. What is the current in the 50 Ω resistor

Physics

In-s [12.5K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1.2 A

Explanation:

From the diagram attached, The three resistors are parallel because the each ends of the resistors are connected together. Since they are in parallel, the voltage across each resistor is the same. The voltage source connected in parallel to the resistors is 60 V. Therefore the voltage across the 50 Ω resistor is 60 V. Using ohm law:

Voltage (V) = Current (I) × Resistance (R)

V = IR

I = V/R

I = 60 V/ 50 Ω

I = 1.2 A

The current in the 50 Ω resistor is 1.2 A

A(n) 12500 lb railroad car traveling at 7.8 ft/s couples with a stationary car of 7430 lb. The acceleration of gravity is 32 ft/
navik [9.2K]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the conservation of momentum. That is, the final momentum must be the same final momentum. And in each state, the momentum will be the sum of the product between the mass and the velocity of each object, then

\text{Initial Momentum} = \text{Final Momentum}

m_1u_1 +m_2u_2 = m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Here,

m_{1,2}= Mass of each object

u_{1,2}= Initial velocity of each object

v_{1,2}= Final velocity of each object

When they position the final velocities of the bodies it is the same and the car is stationary then,

m_2u_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Rearranging to find the final velocity

v_f = \frac{m_2u_2}{ (m_1+m_2)}

v_f = \frac{ 12500*7.8}{ 12500+7430}

v_f = 4.8921ft/s

The expression for the impulse received by the first car is

I = m_1 (v-u)

I = \frac{W}{g} (v-u)

Replacing,

I = \frac{12500}{32.2}(4.89-7.8)

I = -1129.65lb\cdot s

The negative sign show the opposite direction.
