In a given circuit, the supplied voltage is 1.5 volts. One resistor is 3 ohms and the other is 2 ohms. Use Ohm's law to determin

ozzi

You haven't said whether the two resistors are connected
in series or in parallel. It makes a difference.

-- If they are in series, then their combined effective resistance is

(3 + 2) = 5 ohms.

Current in the circuit is (voltage)/(resistance) = 1.5/5 = 0.3 Amp.

-- If they are in parallel, then their combined effective resistance is

(3 x 2) / (3 + 2) = (6/5) = 1.2 ohms.

Current in the circuit is (voltage)/(resistance) = 1.5/1.2 = 1.25 Amp.

)If a force of 5.00 N is needed to open a 90.0 cm wide door when applied at the edge opposite the hinges, what force must be app

masha68 [24]

Answer:

A force of 12.857 newtons must be applied to open the door.

Explanation:

In this case, a force is exerted on the door, a moment is performed and the door is opened. If moment remains constant, the force is inversely proportional to distance respect to axis of rotation passing through hinges. That is:

$F \propto \frac{1}{r}$

$F = \frac{k}{r}$ (Eq. 1)

Where:

$F$ - Force, measured in newtons.

$k$ - Proportionality ratio, measured in newton-meters.

$r$ - Distance respect to axis of rotation passing through hinges, measured in meters.

From (Eq. 1) we get the following relationship and clear the final force within:

$F_{A}\cdot r_{A} = F_{B}\cdot r_{B}$

$F_{B}=\left(\frac{r_{A}}{r_{B}} \right)\cdot F_{A}$ (Eq. 2)

Where:

$F_{A}$ , $F_{B}$ - Initial and final forces, measured in newtons.

$r_{A}$ , $r_{B}$ - Initial and final distances, measured in meters.

If we know that $F_{A} = 5\,N$ , $r_{A} = 0.9\,m$ and $r_{B} = 0.35\,m$ , then final force is:

$F_{B}= \left(\frac{0.9\,m}{0.35\,m} \right)\cdot (5\,N)$

$F_{B} = 12.857\,N$

A force of 12.857 newtons must be applied to open the door.

A car travels at a constant speed up a ramp making an angle of 28 degrees with the horizontal component of velocity is 40 kmh^-1

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Vx = 35.31 [km/h]

Vy = 18.77 [km/h]

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we must decompose the velocity component by means of the angle of 28° using the cosine function of the angle.

$v_{x} = 40*cos(28)\\V_{x} = 35.31 [km/h]$

In order to find the vertical component, we must use the sine function of the angle.

$V_{y}=40*sin(28)\\V_{y} = 18.77 [km/h]$

Starting from a pillar, you run 200 m east (the + x-direction) at an average speed of 5.0 m/s and then run 280 m west at an aver

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Total time taken=110 seconds

Total distance traveled=480m

Explanation:

First of all, we find the total time taken:

For that, we use the formula : Distance/Speed= Time

Time for part 1 : 200/5=40 seconds

Time for part 2 : 280/4=70seconds

Total time taken=110 seconds

Total distance traveled=480m

Average Speed= 480/110=4.36 m/s

Total displacement=200-280=-80m (Since this is displacement, we need to find the distance between the initial and final point. Also, I've taken east direction as positive and west as negative)

Average Velocity=-80/110=-0.72 m/s

OR 0.72m/s towards west.

During the last shot of the game, the basketball goes from rest to 15 m/s and reaches the backboard in 0.41 s. What was the acce

Anna [14]

Answer: a= 37m

Explanation: V= 15 m/s (Velocity) t= 0.41s (time) formula: a= v/t

15 m/s / 0.41 (15 divided by 0.41) = 36.583m

There are 2 significant digits, 36, you look at the third digit, either round up or down in this case up to 36. a= 37m
