Two resistors, of R1 = 3.11 Ω and R2 = 6.15 Ω, are connected in series to a battery with an EMF of 24.0 V and negligible interna

l resistance. Find the current I1 through the first resistor and the potential difference ΔV2 between the ends of the second resistor.

Part (a):
1- Since the resistors are in series, therefore, the total resistance is the summation of the two resistors.
Therefore:
Rtotal = R1 + R2 = 3.11 + 6.15 = 9.26 ohm

2- Since the two resistors are in series, therefore, the current flowing in both is the same. We will use ohm's law to get the current as follows:
V = I*R
V is the voltage of the battery = 24 v
I is the current we want to get
R is the total resistance = 9.26 ohm
Therefore:
24 = 9.26*I
I = 24 / 9.26
I = 2.59 ampere

Part (b):
To get the voltage across the second resistor, we will again use Ohm's law as follows:
V = I*R
V is the voltage we want to get
I is the current in the second resistor = 2.59 ampere
R is the value of the second resistor = 6.15 ohm
Therefore:
V = I*R
V = 2.59 * 6.15
V = 15.9285 volts

Hope this helps :)

In a high school swim competition, a student takes 1.6 s to complete 1.5 somersaults. Determine the average angular speed of the
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

The  angular speed is w = 5.89 \ rad/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The time taken is  t = 1.6 s

    The number of somersaults  is n  =  1.5

The total angular displacement during the somersault is mathematically represented as

         \theta  =  n *  2 *  \pi

substituting values

        \theta  =  1.5 *  2 *  3.142

       \theta  = 9.426 \ rad

 The angular speed is mathematically represented as

         w =  \frac{\theta }{t}

substituting values

         w =  \frac{9.426}{1.6}

          w = 5.89 \ rad/s

How much voltage is required to run 0.64 A of current through a 240 resistor? Use V= IR.
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
B. If you press that into a calculator it comes up with 153.6. You then shift the decimal point 2 times forward and you end up getting 1.5 x 10^2 V.

A 38.5kg man is in an elevator accelerating downward. A normal force of 343n pushes up on him. what is his acceleration?
alexira [117]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.91 m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{343}{38.5}  =  \frac{98}{11}  \\  = 8.909090...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.91 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

Earth's gravitational force just got three times stronger! What happens to your weight?
kicyunya [14]

Your "weight" is the name you give to that gravitational force.
So your question actually says:

           "Your weight just got three times stronger !
             What happens to your weight ?"
