"if a 20 and a 40 ohm resistor are wired in parallel to a 20v source, what will be the current in the 40 ohm resistor?"

In parallel, neither resistor knows about the other one, and they have no effect on each other.

Each resistor is connected straight to the battery terminals. If the battery is hefty enough, it supplies current to each resistor as if the other one weren't there.

Current through a resistor = (voltage across it) / (its resistance).

Current = (20 V) / (40 ohms)

Current = 1/2 Ampere.

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

It takes 10.5 minutes to kill all the bacteria.

Only 1 cell would remain after 9 minutes.

Explanation:

It will take 1.5 minutes to kill 90% of the cells. So, after 1.5 minutes, only 10% would remain. After 3 minutes, only 1% remain. So, to figure out how long it would take to kill a million cells, we have to multiply 1 million by 0.1 repeatedly until the final value is less than 1 that is because when the value is less than 1, it means there are no more bacteria.

So:  

10^6 \times (0.1)^7 = 0.1  

So, you need 10.5 minutes of killing to kill one million cells.

Time taken=  7 x 1.5 minutes = 10.5 minutes.  

After 9 minutes you would have:  

10^{6} \times (0.1)^{6} = 1 cell left

If a ball is rolling at a velocity of 1.5 meters per second and has a momentum of 10.0 kg meters per second what is the mas6of t
g100num [7]

The mass of the ball is 6.67 kg

Explanation:

The momentum of an object is given by:

p=mv

where

p is the momentum

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

It must be noted that momentum is a vector quantity, so it has both magnitude and direction (but here only the magnitude is given).

For the ball in this problem, we have:

v = 1.5 m/s is its velocity

p = 10.0 kg m/s is its momentum

Solving the formula for m, we find the mass of the ball:

m=\frac{p}{v}=\frac{10}{1.5}=6.67 kg

Work:
W= \int\limits^b_a {F.} \, ds

F: force
ds: displacement

Assuming the work is constant:

W= \int\limits^b_a {F.} \, ds =  F . d = F * cos\theta * d

Answer:

84.05

Explanation:

  • F=mg×0.25
  • F=20x9.81×0.25
  • f=49.05N
  • F=35N

F=f+F

F=49.05+35
