Answer:

0.25 A

Resistance= 40 ohms

Explanation:

The first, and perhaps most important, the relationship between current, voltage, and resistance is called Ohm's Law, discovered by Georg Simon Ohm and published in his 1827 paper. Ohm's law states that the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points. Introducing the constant of proportionality, the resistance, one arrives at the usual V=IR. Any Electrical device or component that obeys “Ohms Law” that is, the current flowing through it is proportional to the voltage across it ( I α V ), such as resistors or cables, are said to be “Ohmic” in nature.

Since we are not in a laboratory, we can not experimentally measure the current but it can be calculated from ohm's law.

Given that the four resistors are connected in series and

Req= R1 + R2 + R3 + R4

Since all are four ohm resistors

Req= 10 + 10+10+10 = 40ohms

Then;

V= 10 V

R= 40ohms

I= ???

From;

V=IR

I= 10/40

I= 0.25 A

Answer:

See the attachment for circuit and position of ammeter in the circuit to measure the current.

40ohms

Explanation:

Ammeter in always connected in series with other elements in the circuit.

Measured current= 0.25A

According to ohm's law

V=IR

10= (0.25) R

R= 40 ohms

How can you justify that force is transferred to lift and throw soil using shovel?<br>​
Natali [406]

Forces are needed to lift, turn, move, open, close, push, pull, and so on. When you throw a ball, you are using force to make the ball move through the air. More than one force can act on an object at the same time.

Diferencie energia cinética de energia potencial gravitacional.
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Featured snippet from the web

The atoms and molecules in it are in constant motion. The kinetic energy of such a body is the measure of its temperature. Potential energy is classified depending on the applicable restoring force. Gravitational potential energy – potential energy of an object which is associated with gravitational force

. One long wire carries a current of 30 A along the entire x axis. A second-long wire carries a current of 40 A perpendicular to
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

magnitude of net magnetic field at given point is

B = 5 \times 10^{-6} T

Explanation:

As we know that magnetic field due to a long current carrying wire is given as

B = \frac{\mu_o i}{2\pi r}

here we we will find the magnetic field due to wire which is along x axis is given as

i = 30 A

r = 2 m

now we have

B_1 = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} (30)}{2\pi (2m)}

B_1 = 3\times 10^{-6} T into the plane

Now similarly magnetic field due to another wire which is perpendicular to xy plane is given as

i = 40 A

r = 2 m

now we have

B_2 = \frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7} (40)}{2\pi (2m)}

B_2 = 4\times 10^{-6} T along + x direction

Since the two magnetic field is perpendicular to each other

So here net magnetic field is given as

B = \sqrt{B_1^2 + B_2^2}

B = 5 \times 10^{-6} T
