Answer:

120 volts

Explanation:

Since the two resistances are connected in parallel across the voltage source, the effective resistance of the circuit can be obtained by using the formula.

\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{R_{1}}+ \frac{1}{R_{2}}

given that R_{1} and R_{2}  are 50 and 75 ohms respectively, we have the equivalent resistance as:

\frac{1}{R_{eq}}=\frac{1}{50}+ \frac{1}{75}=\frac{1}{30}

hence,

R_{eq}= 30\Omega

From Ohm's law, voltage = current X resistance.

given that the current through the 75 ohm resistor is 1.6 A

V= I\times R

V= 1.6 \times 75\Omega

voltage = 120 Volts.

Because the resistors are connected in parallel, it means that they are connected to the same voltage source.

Hence, the voltage source for the 75 Ohm resistance = 120 volts. This is same for the 50 Ohm resistor.

Answer:

The voltage source required to provide 1.6 A of current through the 75 ohm resistance is 120 V.

Explanation:

Given;

Resistance, R₁ = 50Ω

Resistance, R₂ = 75Ω

Total resistance, R = (R₁R₂)/(R₁ + R₂)

Total resistance, R = (50 x 75)/(125)

Total resistance, R = 30 Ω

According to ohms law, sum of current in a parallel circuit is given as

I = I₁ + I₂

I = \frac{V}{R_1} + \frac{V}{R_2}

Voltage across each resistor is the same

1.6 = \frac{V}{R_2}  

V = 1.6 x R₂

V = 1.6 x 75

V = 120 V

Therefore, the voltage source required to provide 1.6 A of current through the 75 ohm resistance is 120 V.

This voltage is also the same for 50 ohms resistance but the current will be 2.4 A.

A ball A is thrown vertically upward from the top of a 30-m-high building with an initial velocity of 5 m>s. At the same inst
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

s= 20.4 m  

Explanation:

First lets write down equations for each ball:  

s=so+vo*t+1/2a_c*t^2

for ball A:

s_a=30+5*t+1/2*9.81*t^2

for ball B:  

s_b=20*t-1/2*9.81*t^2

to find time deeded to pass we just put that

s_a = s_b  

30+5*t-4.91*t^2=20*t-4.9*t^2

t=2 s  

now we just have to put that time in any of those equations an get distance from the ground:  

s = 30 + 5*2 -1/2*9.81 *2^2  

s= 20.4 m

Suppose the working pressure for a boiler is 10 psig, then what is the corresponding absolute pressure?
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

The corresponding absolute pressure of the boiler is 24.696 pounds per square inch.

Explanation:

From Fluid Mechanics, we remember that absolute pressure (p_{abs}), measured in pounds per square inch, is the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the working pressure (gauge pressure). That is:

p_{abs} = p_{atm}+p_{g} (1)

Where:

p_{atm} - Atmospheric pressure, measured in pounds per square inch.

p_{g} - Working pressured of the boiler (gauge pressure), measured in pounds per square inch.

If we suppose that p_{atm} = 14.696\,psi and p_{g} = 10\,psi, then the absolute pressure is:

p_{abs} = 14.696\,psi+10\,psi

p_{abs} = 24.696\,psi

The corresponding absolute pressure of the boiler is 24.696 pounds per square inch.
