For the circuit shown, calculate

RSB [31]

For the circuit shown

a.the total resistance = R = 35.9 Ω

b. when total current = 2 A, then total voltage = V = 71.8 V

c.the current through resistor of resistance 56Ω = I₁ = 1.28 A

the current through resistor of resistance 100Ω = I₂ = 0.72 A

Explanation:

Resistors can be connected in series or in parallel. For series combination Resultant resistance of the circuit is given by

R = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ +...........+Rₙ

But is our case as shown in the picture, Both the resistors are connected in parallel and for parallel combination resultant, resultant resistance of the circuit is given by

(1 / R) = (1 / R₁) + (1 / R₂) + (1 / R₃) +.......+ (1 / Rₙ)

1 / R = (1 / R₁) + (1 / R₂)

Let

R₁ = 56Ω and R₂ = 100Ω

1 / R = 1/56 + 1/100

1 / R = 39 / 1400

R = 1400 / 39

R = 35.9 Ω

Part b can be solved by Ohm's Law Which is stated as "The current flowing through a circuit is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends provided the physical state such as temperature of the conductor (circuit) does not change."

Mathematically

V ∝ I

V = IR

Where V is the potential difference across the ends of the conductor and I is the Current flowing through the circuit. R is the resistance of the circuit.

Given data:

Total current = I = 2 A

Resistance = R = 35.9 Ω

Voltage = ?

By Ohm's Law

V = IR

V = 2*35.9

V = 71.8 V

To solve current through each resistor, We can use current division formula which is given as

I₁ = I[ R₂ / (R₁ + R₂) ]

I₂ = I[ R₁ / (R₁ + R₂) ]

Also we can take Voltage across each resistor equal to V = 71.8 V because Potential difference across each resistors connected in parallel remain same . And by using Ohm's law divide the value of potential difference with the value of respective resistor to find the current through each resistors.

By Ohm's Law

V = IR

I = V / R

I₁ = 71.8 / 56

I₁ = 1.28 A

I₂ = V / R

I₂ = 71.8 / 100

I₂ = 0.72 A

Why do you think football players are usually large in size?

kiruha [24]

Football players in the NFL are large in size due to their eating habits since as players they have to work out constantly to stay and shape and eat to gain weight and be strong, so its important for them to be strong against their opponents in gameplay. Football players sometimes take steroids which make their muscles stronger and harder, and also gives them a growth spurt but the effects are worse and makes them sicker, high blood pressure, and even more.

An object propelled upwards with an acceleration of 2.0 m / s ^ 2 is launched from rest. After 6 seconds the fuel runs out. Dete

dezoksy [38]

Answer:43.34 m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration(a) $=2 m/s^2$

Initial Velocity(u)=0 m/s

After 6 s fuel runs out

Velocity after 6 s

v=u+at

$v=0+2\times 6=12 m/s$

After this object will start moving under gravity

height reached in first 6 s

$s=ut+\frac{at^2}{2}$

$s=0+\frac{2\times 6^2}{2}$

s=36 m

After fuel run out distance traveled in upward direction is

$v^2-u^2=2as_0$

here v=0

u=12 m/s

$a=9.8 m/s^2$

$0-12^2=2(-9.8)(s)$

$s_0=\frac{144}{2\times 9.8}=7.34 m$

$s+s_0=36+7.34=43.34 m$

Influenced by the gravitational pull of a distant star, the velocity of an asteroid changes from from +19.3 km/s to −18.8 km/s o

muminat

As per above given data

initial velocity = 19.3 km/s

final velocity = - 18.8 km/s

now in order to find the change in velocity

$\Delta v = v_f - v_i$

$\Delta v = -18.8 - 19.3$

$\Delta v = -38.1 km/s$

$\Delta v = -3.81 * 10^4 m/s$

Part b)

Now we need to find acceleration

acceleration is given by formula

$a = \frac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}$

given that

$\Delta v =- 3.81 * 10^4 m/s$

$\Delta t = 2.07 years = 6.53 * 10^7 s$

now the acceleration is given as

$a = \frac{-3.81 * 10^4}{6.53 * 10^7}$

$a = - 5.84 * 10^{-4}m/s^2$

so above is the acceleration

What are the two kinds of nucleons?

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

The main types of nucleons are protons and neutrons. A proton, as its name suggests, has a positive electric charge, and a neutron has a neutral electric charge (meaning that it has no charge). The two in the nucleus of the atom make a positive charge, since the neutron has no charge at all.
