Answer:

The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V

Explanation:

Capacitor: A capacitor is an electrical device that has the ability to store electrical charges in an electrical circuit. It is expressed in Farad (F)

Resistor: A resistor is an electrical device that oppose the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is expressed in ohms (Ω)

RMS Voltage : RMS voltage  value of an alternating voltage is defined as that value of steady voltage which would dissipate heat at the same rate in a given resistance

Since the it is a series circuit, the total voltage is divided across the resistance and the capacitor.

Vt = V₁ + V₂...........................Equation 1

Where Vt = total Rms voltage = 120 V ,  V₁ = Rms voltage across the Capacitor = 92 V, V₂ = Rms voltage across the resistor.

Making V₂ the subject of the equation in equation 1 above,

V₂ = Vt - V₁  = 120 - 92

V₂ = 28 V.

The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V

Answer:

Their experimental design lacks control group

Explanation:

Based on what I read, the scientists don't have a control group as one of the main groups thus they cannot, in scientific sense, say that the medicine is better or worse. You always need a control group receiving no intervention because then we can compare groups and assess the effectiveness of that intervention (in our case if we had control group vs people who received the medicine, we could see if the people who received the medicine had improved condition etc when compared to participants who did not receive anything)

The greatest height reported for a jump into an airbag is 99.4 m by stuntman Dan Koko. In 1948 he jumped from rest from the top
leva [86]

Answer:

44.1613858478 m/s

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity = 0

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement = 99.4

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s² = a

v^2-u^2=2as\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2as+u^2}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times 99.4+0^2}\\\Rightarrow v=44.1613858478\ m/s

If air resistance was absent Dan Koko would strike the airbag at 44.1613858478 m/s

Basketball player Darrell Griffith is on record as
Gre4nikov [31]

Explanation:

1.

We use the equation

h = \frac{gt^2}{2}, where

h is the height traveled,

g is the acceleration due to gravity and

t is the time taken to reach height h.

We can now calculate t to be

\sqrt{\frac{2*1.2 m}{9.81 m/s^2} }

= 0.495 s

Let v be the initial velocity of the player.

The player deaccelarates from v m/s to 0 m/s in 0.495 s at the rate of 9.81 m/s^2.

v = 9.81 m/s^2 x 0.495 s = 4.85 m/s

2.

The player takes 0.3 s to increase his velocity from 0 m/s to 4.85 m/s. So his average accelaration is

4.85 m/s / 0.3 s = 16.2 m/s^2
