Answer:

R_total = 14.57 Ω ,  V_C = 1.176 V

Explanation:

To solve this circuit we are going to find the equivalent resistance of each branch, let's remember

* Serial resistance  

         R_{eq} = ∑ R_{i}

* For resistance in parallel

        1 / R_{eq} = ∑ 1/R_{i}

We solve the two branches of the wheatstone bridge

Series resistors

Branch B

         R_B = Rb + R4

         R_B = 2 + 18

         R_B = 20 Ω

Branch C

         R_C5 = Rc + R5

         R_C5 = 3 + 12

         R_C5 = 15 Ω

Resistance in parallel R_B and R_C5

         1 / R_BC = 1 / R_B + 1 / R_C5

          1 / R_BC = 1/20 + 1/15 = 0.116666

          R_BC = 8.57 Ω

Now we have a single branch, we solve the series resistance

          R_total = R_A + R_BC

          R_total = 6 + 8.57

          R_total = 14.57 Ω

b) they ask us for the voltage in the resistance R_C

Let's remember that the voltage in a series circuit is the sum of the voltages

           10 = V_a + V_BC

           10 = i R_a + i R_BC = i (R_a + R_BC)

           i = 10 / (R_a + R_BC)

           i = 10 / (14.57)

           i = 0.6863 A

The current in the series circuit is constant

          V_BC = i R_BC

          V_BC = 0.6863 8.57

          V_BC = 5.8819 V

This voltage is divided in the bridge, for the two branches in parallel it is the same, but the resistance is different in each branch.

     Branch C

             V_BC = i R_C5

             i = V_BC / R_C5

             i = 5.8819 / 15

             i = 0.39213 A

In this branch we have two resistors in series, let's remember that the current in a series circuit is constant

             V_C = i R_C

              V_C = 0.39213 3

              V_C = 1.176 V

The value of 1.0004 to the power 1 by 2 using Binomial approximation is​
IgorLugansk [536]

Given:

The given value is (1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}.

To find:

The value of the given expression by using the Binomial approximation.

Explanation:

We have,

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}

It can be written as:

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=(1+0.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.0004      [\because (1+x)^n=1+nx]

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+0.0002

(1.0004)^{\frac{1}{2}}=1.0002

Therefore, the approximate value of the given expression is 1.0002.

Imagine an alternate universe where all of the quantum number rules were identical to ours except m_{s} had three allowed values
marishachu [46]

Answer:

so in a given orbital there can be 3 electrons.

Explanation:

The Pauli exclusion principle states that all the quantum numbers of an electron cannot be equal, if the spatial part of the wave function is the same, the spin part of the wave function determines how many electrons fit in each orbital.

In the case of having two values, two electrons change. In the case of three allowed values, one electron fits for each value, so in a given orbital there can be 3 electrons.

2)It is known that the connecting rodS exerts on the crankBCa 2.5-kN force directed down andto the left along the centerline ofA
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

M_c = 100.8 Nm

Explanation:

Given:

F_a = 2.5 KN

Find:

Determine the moment of this force about C for the two cases shown.

Solution:

- Draw horizontal and vertical vectors at point A.

- Take moments about point C as follows:

                        M_c = F_a*( 42 / 150 ) *144

                        M_c = 2.5*( 42 / 150 ) *144

                        M_c = 100.8 Nm

- We see that the vertical component of force at point A passes through C.

Hence, its moment about C is zero.

In the Copper Plating Solution lab, you placed copper (Cu) pennies in vinegar. Vinegar is a weak acid with hydrogen ions (H+). W
PolarNik [594]
Bubbles came off from the copper pennies are hydrogen gas. There many free hydrogen ions in an acid like vinegar. And because of the chemical reaction between the copper and the vinegar, many hydrogen ions joined together to form hydrogen gas.
