Ahat [919]3 years ago

A parallel circuit is sometimes called a current divider because current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit. In addition, the current through the branches is inversely proportional to the resistance of the branch. If the resistance in each branch is kept constant but the voltage is decreased, the current will decrease.

A car travels 2155.0m in 195.9s. What is the car's average speed?
inna [77]

Average speed of the car is 11 m/s

Explanation:

  • Speed is calculated by the rate of change of displacement.
  • It is given by the formula, Speed = Distance/Time
  • Here, distance = 2155 m and time = 195.9 s

Speed of the car = 2155/195.9 = 11 m/s

A carbon fiber car bumper is hit by another car with the stress of 106,483 Pa. If carbon fiber has a Young's modulus of 228 x 10
hoa [83]

Answer:

Stress = 4.67 * 10^-7 N/m²

Explanation:

Young's modulus of the material = Stress/Strain

Given

Young's modulus  = 228 x 10^9 Pa

Stress =  106,483 Pa

Required

Strain

From the formula;

Strain = Stress/Young modulus

Strain =  106,483 /228 x 10^9

Stress = 4.67 * 10^-7 N/m²

A 74 kg firefighter slides, from rest, 4.9 m down a vertical pole. (a) If the firefighter holds onto the pole lightly, so that t
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Her speed is 9.8 meter per second

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that acceleration (a) is related with force (F) by:

\sum\overrightarrow{F}=m\overrightarrow{a} (1)

Here the only force acting on the firefighter is the weight F=mg so (1) is:

mg=ma

Solving for a:

a=g

Now with the acceleration we can use the Galileo's kinematic equation:

Vf^{2}=Vo^{2}+2a\varDelta x (2)

With Vf the final velocity, Vo the initial velocity and Δx the displacement, because the firefighter stars from rest Vo=0 so (2) is:

Vf^{2}=2a\varDelta x

Solving for Vf

Vf=\sqrt{2g\varDelta x}=\sqrt{2(9.81)(4.9)}

Vf=9.8\frac{m}{s}

What is the surface area to volume ratio of this cube
tamaranim1 [39]

I can't see that cube from here.

But if the length of the side of the cube is ' K ' units,
then the surface area of the cube is  6K² units², and
the volume of the cube is  K³ units³.

The ratio of the surface area to the volume is

               (6K² units²) / (K³ units³)  =  (6) / (K units) .

So for example, if the side of the cube is 2 inches, then
the ratio of surface area to volume is  "3 per inch".

That's the answer.  I did the whole thing in order to earn
the points, but I don't expect you to understand much of it,
because I see from your username that you suck at math.
I'm sorry you decided that.  Now that you've put up the
brick wall, it'll be even harder for any math to find its way
in there, and you'll miss out on a lot of the fun.
