Answer:

Current through each resistor is 2 A.

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of a battery, V = 5 volts

Resistance 1, R = 1.25 ohms

Resistance 2,R' = 1.25 ohms

Both resistors are connected in series. The equivalent resistance is given by :

R" = R + R'

R" = 1.25 + 1.25

R" = 2.5 ohms

The current flowing throughout all resistors is same in series combination of resistors. Current can be calculated using Ohm's law as :

I=\dfrac{V}{R"}

I=\dfrac{5\ V}{2.5}

I = 2 A

So, the current through each resistor is 2 A. Hence, this is the required solution.

Before colliding, the momentum of block A is -100 kg*m/, and block B is -150 kg*m/s. After, block A has a momentum -200 kg*m/s.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

Momentum of block B after collision =-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}

Explanation:

Given

Before collision:

Momentum of block A = p_{A1}= -100\ kg\ ms^{-1}

Momentum of block B = p_{B1}= -150\ kg\ ms^{-1}

After collision:

Momentum of block A = p_{A2}= -200\ kg\ ms^{-1}

Applying law of conservation of momentum to find momentum of block B after collision p_{B2}.

p_{A1}+p_{B1}=p_{A2}+p_{B2}

Plugging in the given values and simplifying.

-100-150=-200+p_{B2}

-250=-200+p_{B2}

Adding 200 to both sides.

200-250=-200+p_{B2}+200

-50=p_{B2}

∴ p_{B2}=-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}

Momentum of block B after collision =-50\ kg\ ms^{-1}

A body of mass 5.0 kg is suspended by a spring which stretches 10 cm when the mass is attached. It is then displaced downward an
Dominik [7]

Answer:

position as a function of time is y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

Explanation:

given data

mass = 5 kg

length = 10 cm = 0.1 m

displaced = 5 cm

to find out

position as a function of time

solution

we will apply here equilibrium that is

mass × g = k × length

put here value and find k

k = \frac{5*9.8}{.01}

k = 490 N/m

and ω is

ω = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

ω = \sqrt{\frac{490}{5} }

ω = 9.9

so here position w.r.t  time is

y = 0.05 × cosωt

y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

so position as a function of time is y = 0.05 × cos(9.9)t

Tides occurs in oceans but not in lakes.why?​
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Tides occur in the ocean but nit in lakes because an ocean is a free flowing body of water that can travel a large area of the globe while a lake or pond only covers a small area of the earth so it is not affected by gravity as violently and in turn, prevents the formation of tides.
