We make a graphic of this problem to define the angle.

The angle we can calculate through triangle relation, that is,

sin\theta = \frac{c}{QP}\\sin\theta = \frac{c}{R}\\\theta=sin^{-1}\frac{c}{R}

With this function we should only calculate the derivate in function of c

\frac{d\theta}{dc} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{1-\frac{c^2}{R^2}}}(\frac{c}{R})'\\\frac{d\theta}{dc} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2-c^2}}

That is the rate of change of \theta.

b) At this point we need only make a substitution of 0 for c in the equation previously found.

\frac{d\theta}{dc}\big|_{c=0} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{R^2-0}}\\\frac{d\theta}{dc}\big|_{c=0} = \frac{1}{R}

Hence we have finally the rate of change when c=0.

Resistors 1 and 2− R1 = 50 Ω , R2 = 90 Ω − are connected in series to a 6.0-V battery. Part APart complete What is the potential
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Part A: The voltage across resistor R1 is approximately \rm 2.1 \; V.

Part B: When the value of resistor R1 decreases, the current in this circuit will increase.

Part C: When the value of resistor R1 decreases, the voltage across resistor R1 will decrease.

Explanation:

<h3>Part A</h3>

Resistor R1 and and R2 are connected in series. That's equivalent to a single resistor of R_1 + R_2 = 50 + 90 = 140\; \Omega. The voltage across the two resistor, combined, is equal to \rm 6\; V. Hence by Ohm's Law, the current through the circuit will be equal to \rm \dfrac{6\; V}{140\; \Omega} = \dfrac{3}{70}\; A.

These two resistors are connected in series. The voltage across each of them might differ. However, the current through each of them should both be equal to the current through the circuit. In this case, the current through both R1 and R2 should be equal to \rm \dfrac{3}{70}\; A. Apply Ohm's Law (again) to find the voltage across R1:

V = I \cdot R = \dfrac{3}{70} \times 50 \approx \rm 2.1\; V.

<h3>Part B</h3>

Since the equivalent resistance is equal to R_1 + R_2, when the value of R_1 decreases, the equivalent resistance will also decrease. By Ohm's Law, I = \dfrac{V}{R}. When the value of the denominator ( decreases, the value of the quotient, I the current through the circuit, will increase.

<h3>Part C</h3>

Keep in mind that if two resistors are connected in series,

I(R_1) = I(\text{Circuit}) = I(R_2).

The resistance of R1 decreases, while the current through it increases. Applying Ohm's Law on R1 won't give much useful information. However, since the resistance of R2 stays the same, the voltage across it will increase when its current increases (again by Ohm's Law.)

Again, since the two resistors are connected in series,

V(R_1) + V(R_2) = V(\text{Circuit}) = \rm 6 \; V,

when the voltage across R2 increases, the voltage across R1 will decrease.

A wave travels at a constant speed. How does the frequency change if the wavelength increases by a factor of 2?
NARA [144]

Answer : The frequency decreases by a factor of 2.

Explanation :

Given that the wave travels at a constant speed. The speed of the wave is given as :

v=\nu\times \lambda

Where

υ is the frequency of the wave

and λ is the wavelength of the wave.

In this case, the speed is constant. So, the relation between the frequency and the wavelength is inverse.

\nu\propto \dfrac{1}{\lambda}

If the wavelength increases by a factor of 2, its frequency will decrease by a factor of 2.

Hence, the correct option is (A) " The frequency decreases by a factor of 2 ".

Which of the four fundamental forces is responsible for holding together the molecules of the pizza dough as it is spinning in t
defon

Answer:

None.

Explanation:

Molecules are formed by an element's need or excess of electrons. For example, in nature oxygen generally exists as 02. Other molecules are formed via chemical reaction. The example here is the burning of gasoline. Gasoline's two main byproducts are water and carbon dioxide.

Hydrogen as an atom has one electron making it unstable. Put a second hydrogen atom next to the first and the two atoms will share electrons to fill the first energy level the atom needs to be stable.
