Explanation:

Each resistor has a resistance of R.

In the first problem, each row of three resistors in series has a resistance or 3R.

A₂ = 4A, so the voltage drop across the rows is:

V = IR

V = (4)(3R)

V = 12R

The voltage drop equals the voltage gain (Kirchoff's voltage law).  The battery has a voltage of 9V, so:

9 = 12R

R = 0.75 Ω

The three rows are in parallel with each other, so the total resistance is:

∑R = (1/(3R) + 1/(3R) + 1/(3R))⁻¹

∑R = R

∑R = 0.75 Ω

The current A₁ can be found with Ohm's law:

V = IR

9 = (A₁) (0.75)

A₁ = 12 A

Using Ohm's law to find V₁, V₂, and V₃:

V = IR

V₁ = (4)(0.75)

V₁ = 3V

V₂ = (4)(2×0.75)

V₂ = 6 V

V₃ = (4)(3×0.75)

V₃ = 9 V

In the second problem, all the resistors are in series.  So the total resistance is:

∑R = 8R

The battery voltage is 16V, and A₂ = 6A.  So using Ohm's law:

V = IR

16 = (6)(8R)

R = 1/3 Ω

Since there's only one loop, the current is the same at all points.  So A₁ = A₂ = 6A.

Using Ohm's law to find each voltage:

V = IR

V₁ = (6)(1/3)

V₁ = 2V

V₂ = (6)(2×1/3)

V₂ = 4 V

V₃ = (6)(4×1/3)

V₃ = 8 V

V₄ = (6)(2×1/3)

V₄ = 4 V

For the circuit shown in the left side of the image, A₁=12A, V₁=3V, V₂=6V, and V₃=9V.

The voltage source is Vs = 3(3V) = 9V is connected in parallel to the three branches that each contain three equals light bulbs, the three branches are in parallel meaning that the voltage in each branch is 9V.

The current through one branch is A₂ = 4A, we can calculate the equivalent resistance in that branch using Ohm's Law:  

Req = V/I, where I = A₂ = 4A

Req = 9V/4A = 2.25Ω

We can calculate the resistance in each light bulb, there are three light bulb in each branch that have a equivalent resistance of 2.25Ω, the light bulbs are in serie, so:

Req = R + R + R = 3R

The resistance of each light bulb is R = Req/3 = 2.25Ω/3 = 0.75Ω

To calculate V₁, using Ohm's Law:

V₁ = I R = (4A)(0.75Ω) = 3V

Then, the other branches are in parallel and it has the same amount of light bulbs and the same characteristics, each branch has a equivalent resistance of 2.25Ω, and each light bulb has a resistance of 0.75Ω.

To calculate V₂ and V₃:

We know that the voltage in each branch is 9V, each light bulb has a drop of voltage of 3V. So, the total voltage in one branch is the sum of each drop of voltage on each light bulb Vt = 3V + 3V + 3V = 9V.

V₂ = 3V + 3V = 6v

v₃ = Vt = 3V + 3V + 3V = 9V

To calculate the total current A₁ through the circuit, we know that the current through each branch is 4A, the total current A₁ is:

A₁ = 3A₂ = 3(4A) = 12A

For the circuit shown in the right side of the image, A₁=A₂=6A, V₁=2V, V₂=V₄=4V, and V₃=8V.

The voltage source is Vs = 4(-4V) = -16V connected in series with 8 light bulbs, the current flow through each light bulb, It= A₁ = A₂ = 6A. The voltage source is Vs= -16V, the '-' means that the current flows in the opposite direction.

To calculate the equivalent resistance of the circuit, using Ohm's Law:

Req = Vs/It = 16V/6A = 2.67Ω

The resistance of each light bulb is R = Req/8 = 2.67Ω/8 = 0.33Ω

The drop of voltage on each light bulb is:

V = It R = (6A)(0.33Ω) = 2V

V₁ = 2V

V₂ = V₄ = 2(2V) = 4V

V₃ = 4(2V) = 8V

If Star A and Star B have the same absolute magnitude, but Star A is brighter, what does that tell us?
Hatshy [7]
We can conclude that star A is closer to us than star B.

In fact, the absolute magnitude gives a measure of the brightness of the star, if all the stars are placed at the same distance from Earth. So, it's a measure of the absolute luminosity of the star, indipendently from its distance from us: since the two stars have same absolute magnitude, it means that if they were at same distance from Earth, they would appear with same luminosity. Instead, we see star A brighter than star B, and the only explanation is that star A is closer to Earth than star B (the closer the star A, the brigther it is)

Four aqueous solutions and their concentrations are shown in the above illustration. which of the solutions is most likely to be
Elza [17]
The solution that would most likely be a strongest conductor of electricity is the solution that is most saturated or concentrated. This is because the atoms that are found within the aqueous solutions have become positively charged resulting to the attraction of negatively charged ions that are found in electricity. On the other hand, the least conductive from the aqueous solutions would be the most unsaturated one because of less conductive ions present.

How many number of musicians constitute a big band?
nikitadnepr [17]
Big band is music group (a group of people who perform instrumental and/or vocal music ) playing jazz or jazz-influenced popular music and which was popular during the Swing Era from the mid-1930s until the late 1940s. These big bands contained saxophones, trumpets, trombone and other instruments and typically consisted of approximately 12 to 25 musicians.
