Answer:

V=IR

since the circuit is parallel both resistor have same voltage and different current value according to OHMs law.

total resistance in parallel=

1/R=1/R1+1/R2+...+1/Rn

since we have two resistor in parallel

Rt=R1R2/R1+R2

2*4/2+4=4/3 ohms

I=V/R

12/4/3=36/4=9Amp

OR

I=12/2=6amp

I=12/4=3amp

total current

I=6+3

9amp

Difference between derived quantity and physical quantity​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

<h2>Derived quantities are based on fundamental quantities, and they can be given in terms of fundamental quantities.</h2>

<h3>Fundamental quantities are the base quantities of a unit system, and they are defined independent of the other quantities. </h3>

An ice boat is coasting along a frozen lake. Friction between the ice and the boat is negligible, and so is air resistance. Noth
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

(A) No

(B) Speed decreases

Explanation:

(A) since there is nothing propelling the boat and the friction between the ice and the boat and also air resistance is negligible the net force of the system in the horizontal direction is zero and hence there is no change in the horizontal momentum of the boat.

(B) Since the person had not velocity in the horizontal direction before landing on the boat but now has one after landing on the boat, the speed of the boat will decrease because the momentum has to be conserved (remember there is no change in it).
