A complete circuit contains two parallel-connected devices and a generator for providing the electromotive force. The resistance

of the first device is 12 ohms, the resistance of the second device is 4 ohms, and the voltage developed by the generator is 40 V. What is the magnitude of the current flowing through the first device?

Parallel circuits are circuits when placed in a parallel position. Meaning that for each device, they have their own branch. The voltage that is received in the circuit is equal to the individual devices. The total current is equal to the current of each device. The resistance is the reciprocal of the resistances of each device combined.  

Given:
Device 1 = 12 ohms
Device 2 = 4 ohms
Voltage total = 40V  

Required:
Current at 12 ohms  

Solution:
40V = V1 =V2  

Since V =IR
I1 = V1/R1
I1 = (40V)/(12 ohms)
<span><u>I1 = 3.334 A(Amperes)</u></span>

Consider this scenario between Josh and Julie Josh met Julie in line at a taco truck near campus and noticed she ordered extra h
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The right matching of the scenario in the question are as follows:

1. OBSERVATION: Josh noticed that Julie ordered extra hot peppers and added hot sauce to her food  

2. QUESTION: Josh wondered how to cook spicy Mexican food.

3.  HYPOTHESIS: Josh decided jalapenos would be a good ingredient to add spice to the recipe.

4.  EXPERIMENT: After chopping the jalapenos, he slowly added some to the enchilada filling, tasting as he went until he thought it was spicy enough.  

5. RESULTS: Julie thought the enchiladas were delicious and exactly the right level of spice.  

6. CONCLUSION: Josh determined that since Julie liked the meal, adding jalapenos to the recipe was a good way to make it spicy.

Explanation:

Scientific method is an organized steps of procedures that scientists used to study and gather knowledge about different phenomenons. The systematic steps of scientific method start with observation, the observed phenomenon usually make a scientist to ask questions that he doesn't have an answer to. This will prompt him to formulate an hypothesis and set up an experiment to see if his hypothesis is true or not. The result he obtains from the experiment will determine the type of conclusion he will make about his earlier observation. By following these steps, scientists usually obtain useful  information that bring progress and advancement to humanity.

Why are sex linked disorders most often seen in males
ladessa [460]
A male with a mutation in a gene on the X chromosome is typically affected with the condition. Because females have two copies of the X chromosome and males have only one X chromosome, X-linked recessive diseases are more common among males than females.
