Compare the current in the 8-ohm resistors to the current in the 4-ohm resistors.
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

a)   i₈ = 0.5 i₄,  b)   i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃,    i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

Explanation:

For this exercise we use ohm's law

       V = i R

        i = V / R

we assume that the applied voltage is the same in all cases

let's find the current for each resistance

         

R = 4 Ω

         i₄ = V / 4

R = 8 Ω

         i₈ = V / 8

we look for the relationship between these two currents

         i₈ /i₄ = 4/8 = ½

         i₈ = 0.5 i₄

R = 3 Ω

        i₃ = V3

R = 10 Ω

         

        i₁₀ = V / 10

   

we look for relationships

       i₁₀ / 1₃ = 3/10

       i₁₀ = 0.3 i₃

       i₁₀ / 1₈ = 8/10

       i₁₀ = 0.8 i₈

Scientific evidence documents the pattern of evolution. The evidence exists in a variety of categories. What are these categorie
Sauron [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientific evidence takes note of the pattern of evolution. The evidence exists in a variety of categories, including direct observation of evolutionary change, the fossil record, homology, and biogeography.

Examples of the categories with their respective examples are:

Direct observation of evolutionary change: Development of drug resistant bacteria

Fossil record: Discovery of transitional forms of horses, Discovery of shells of extinct species

Homology: Similarities in mammalian forelimbs, Same genetic code in fireflies and tobacco plants, Vestigial pelvis in right whales

Biogeography: Similarity of endemic island species to nearby mainland species, The high concentration of marsupial species in Australia

3. A model rocket takes 0.05 seconds to speed up from rest to its maximum velocity of 80 m/s.
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Explanation:

Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity divided by the time it took to produce such change. The formula then reads:

a = \frac{change-in-velocity}{time} = \frac{Vf-Vi}{t}

Where Vf is the final velocity of the object, (in our case 80 m/s)

Vi is the initial velocity of the object (in our case 0 m/s because the object was at rest)

and t is the time it took to change from the Vi to the Vf (in our case 0.05 seconds.

Therefore we have:

a = \frac{80 m/s - 0 m/s}{0.05 sec} = 1600 \frac{m}{s^2}

Notice that the units of acceleration in the SI system are \frac{m}{s^2} (meters divided square seconds)

A bicyclist is initially traveling at 3 m/s. The bicyclist accelerates at 1 m/s2 for 5 seconds.
leonid [27]
The change in velocity is 5m/s which added to the initial 3m/s makes the final velocity 8m/s

Distance = (3*5) + (1/2*1*5^2)= 15+12.5= 27.5m

Please help Math Phys
Lorico [155]

Answer:

269 m

45 m/s

-58.6 m/s

Explanation:

Part 1

First, find the time it takes for the package to land.  Take the upward direction to be positive.

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = -175 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: t

Δy = v₀ t + ½ at²

(-175 m) = (0 m/s) t + ½ (-9.8 m/s²) t²

t = 5.98 s

Next, find the horizontal distance traveled in that time:

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 45 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 5.98 s

Find: Δx

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

Δx = (45 m/s) (5.98 s) + ½ (0 m/s²) (5.98 s)²

Δx = 269 m

Part 2

Given (in the x direction):

v₀ = 45 m/s

a = 0 m/s²

t = 5.98 s

Find: v

v = at + v₀

v = (0 m/s²) (5.98 s) + (45 m/s

v = 45 m/s

Part 3

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = -175 m

v₀ = 0 m/s

a = -9.8 m/s²

Find: v

v² = v₀² + 2aΔy

v² = (0 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) (-175 m)

v = -58.6 m/s
