You take the inverse of the total resistances of each branch and add them up. So if you have 5ohm, 7 ohm, and 10ohm, you would add 1/5 + 1/7 + 1/10 = 31/70 Then flip it back by either using the <span>x<span>−1</span></span><span> (inverse) key on your calculator or simply dividing 70 by 31 to get a total of 2.26ohms</span>

A hydrogen discharge lamp emits light with two prominent wavelengths: 656 nm (red) and 486 nm (blue). The light enters a flint-g

mezya [45]

Answer:

The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Explanation:

Given that,

Wavelength of red = 656 nm

Wavelength of blue = 486 nm

Angle = 37°

Suppose we need to find the angle between the red and blue light as it leaves the prism

$n_{r}=1.572$

$n_{b}=1.587$

We need to calculate the angle for red wavelength

Using Snell's law,

$n_{r}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.572\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{r}$

$\theta_{r}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.572\sin37}{1})$

$\theta_{r}=71.0^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle for blue wavelength

Using Snell's law,

$n_{b}\sin\theta_{i}=n_{a}\sin\theta_{b}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.587\sin37=1\times\sin\theta_{b}$

$\theta_{b}=\sin^{-1}(\dfrac{1.587\sin37}{1})$

$\theta_{b}=72.7^{\circ}$

We need to calculate the angle between the red and blue light

Using formula of angle

$\Delta \theta=\theta_{b}-\theta_{r}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta \theta=72.7-71.0$

$\Delta \theta=1.7^{\circ}$

Hence, The angle between the red and blue light is 1.7°.

Drupady [299]

Answer:

$u_K=0.862$

Explanation:

The force of friction between the quails feet and the ground is:

$F=m*a$

$F_K=m*a$

$F_K=u_k*m*g$

$u_K*m*g=m*a_c$

$u_K*g=a$

$u_K=\frac{a_c}{g}$

$a_c=\frac{v^2}{r}$

So the coefficient of static is solve

$u_K=\frac{\frac{v^2}{r}}{g}$

$u_K=\frac{v^2}{r*g}=\frac{(2.6m/s)^2}{0.80m*9.8m/s^2}$

$u_K=0.862$

A filing cabinet weighing 556 N rests on the floor. The coefficient of static friction between it and the floor is 0.68, and the

zvonat [6]

Explanation:

"Static friction is a force that keeps an object at rest. It must be overcome to start moving the object."

(556 x 0.68) = static friction of 378.08N. before movement occurs.

The forces (a) and (b) will not move it.

Each will incur a frictional force preventing movement equal to itself, = 222N. and 334N. respectively.

Forces (c) and (d) will move it, and accelerate it.

Forces (c) and (d) will both encounter friction of (556 x 0.56) = 311.36N. when the cabinet is moving.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

1.2 amps :)

Explanation:

A heater has a resistance of 10.0 Ω. It operates on a 12.0 V. What is the current through the resistor?

Known:

R = 10.0 Ω

V = 12.0 V

Unknown:

I = ???

I = V/R

= 12.0 V / 10.0 Ω

= 1.2 amps

juin [17]

Answer:

Following are the solution to this question:

Explanation:

Law:

$\to \theta= 180^{\circ}- 50^{\circ}- 25^{\circ}$

$= 180^{\circ}- 75^{\circ}\\\\= 105^{\circ}$

$\to \frac{T_{L}}{\sin (90+50)}= \frac{T_{R}}{\sin (25+90)}=\frac{1400}{\sin (105)}$

$\to T_L=931.65 \ pounds \\\\ \to T_R=1313.59 \ pounds \\\\$
