Answer:

P'=\dfrac{P_1P_2}{P_1+P_2}

Explanation:

Lets take

Resistance of bulb 1 =R₁

Resistance of bulb 2 =R₂

As we know that power P

P= ΔV²/R

Given that voltage difference is same for both bulbs

So

P₁R₁= ΔV²       --------1

P₂R₂= ΔV²   -----------2

When these resistance are connected in series then equivalent resistance R

R=R₁+ R₂

The new power P'

P'=ΔV²/R

P'R=ΔV²   ------3

From equation 1 ,2 and 3

P'(R₁+ R₂) = ΔV²

P'\left(\dfrac{\Delta V^2}{P_1}+\dfrac{\Delta V^2}{P_2}\right)=\Delta V^2

P'=\dfrac{P_1P_2}{P_1+P_2}

The earth has a vertical electric field at the surface, pointing down, that averages 100 N/C. This field is maintained by variou
zlopas [31]

Answer:

q = 3.6 10⁵  C

Explanation:

To solve this exercise, let's use one of the consequences of Gauss's law, that all the charge on a body can be considered at its center, therefore we calculate the electric field on the surface of a sphere with the radius of the Earth

          r = 6 , 37 106 m

          E = k q / r²

          q = E r² / k

          q = \frac{100 \ (6.37 \ 10^6)^2}{9 \ 10^9}

          q = 4.5 10⁵ C

Now let's calculate the charge on the planet with E = 222 N / c and radius

           r = 0.6 r_ Earth

           r = 0.6 6.37 10⁶ = 3.822 10⁶ m

           E = k q / r²

            q = E r² / k

            q = \frac{222 (3.822 \ 10^6)^2}{ 9 \ 10^9}

            q = 3.6 10⁵  C

A certain corner of a room is selected as the origin of a rectangular coordinate system. If a fly is crawling on an adjacent wal
Helga [31]

Answer:

2.59 m

Explanation:

Coordinates of origin = (0, 0)

Coordinates of Point p where the fly reach = (2.3 m, 1.2 m)

Use the distance formula of coordinates to find the distance between the origin and the point P.

d=\sqrt{\left ( x_{2}-x_{1} \right )^{2}+\left ( y_{2}-y_{1} \right )^{2}}

d=\sqrt{\left ( 2.3- 0 \right )^{2}+\left ( 1.2-0 \right )^{2}}

d = 2.59 m

Thus, the distance between the origin and the point P is 2.59 m.

in a 4 kilometer race, a runner completes the first kilometer in 5.9 minutes, the second kilometer in 6.2 minutes, the third kil
ohaa [14]
To find the average of data collected, add all of the measurements: 5.9+6.2+6.3+6= 12.2

Then, divide the total amount by the number of data collected which is 4: 12.2/4= 3.05

The average speed of the runner of the race is approximately 3.05 km/min

Feel free to ask me any other questions you might have :)
