In a series circuit the total current is the same throughout resistors and so:
The voltage is distributed throughout the resistors and so:
and the total resistance can be calculated by adding up the resistors resistance:
First thing is to calculate the total resistance and so:
And by Omh's law V=IR we have:
And so the total current of the circuit is 1.2 amps i.e. 1.2 A.
Answer:
D) the second at the doorknob
Explanation:
The torque exerted by a force is given by:
where
F is the magnitude of the force
d is the distance between the point of application of the force and the centre of rotation
is the angle between the direction of the force and d
In this problem, we have:
- Two forces of equal magnitude F
- Both forces are perpendicular to the door, so
- The first force is exerted at the midpoint of the door, while the 2nd force is applied at the doorknob. This means that d is the larger for the 2nd force
--> therefore, the 2nd force exerts a greater torque
