A parallel network consist of three resistors 4 ohm, 8 ohm and 16 ohm .If the current in 8 ohm resistor is 3 A then what are the

currents in other resistors
Physics
1 answer:
Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

If the resistors are in parallel they must all experience the same voltage drop.

R * I = V

8 * 3 = 24 V    (if i is 3 amps)

24V / 4 ohm = 6 amps

24V / 16 ohm = 1.5 amps

A girl and a boy are riding on a merry go round that is turning at a constant rate. The girl is near the outer edge, and the boy
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

The girl has greater tangential acceleration

Explanation:

The angular acceleration (\alpha) of the merry go round is equal to the rate of the change of the angular velocity, \omega:

\alpha = \frac{d\omega}{dt}

Since all the points of the merry go round complete 1 circle in the same time, the angular velocity of each point of the merry go round is the same, and so all the points also have the same angular acceleration.

The tangential acceleration instead is given by

a_t = \alpha r

where

\alpha is the angular acceleration

r is the distance from the centre of the merry go round

Since the girl is near the outer edge and the boy is closer to the centre, the value of r for the girl is larger than for the boy, so the girl has greater tangential acceleration.

A bucket of mass m is hanging from the free end of a rope whose other end is wrapped around a drum (radius R, mass M) that can r
mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let T be the tension .

Applying newton's second law on the downward movement of the bucket

mg - T = ma

On the drum , a torque of TR will be acting which will create an angular acceleration of α in it . If I be the moment of inertia of the drum

TR = Iα

TR = Ia/ R

T =  Ia/ R²

Replacing this value of T in the other equation

mg - T = ma

mg - Ia/ R²  = ma

mg =  Ia/ R² +ma

a ( I/ R² +m)= mg

a = mg / ( I/ R² +m)

mg - T = ma

mg - ma  = T

mg - m x mg / ( I/ R² +m) = T

mg - m²g / ( I/ R² +m ) = T

mg - mg / ( 1 + I / m R² ) = T

b ) T =  Ia/ R²

I = TR² / a

c ) Moment of inertia of hollow cylinder

I = 1/2  M ( R² - R² / 4 )

= 3/4 x 1/2 MR²

= 3/8 MR²

I / R² = 3/8 M

a = mg / ( I/ R² +m)

a = mg / ( 3/8 M + m )

T =  Ia/ R²

= 3/8 MR² x mg / ( 3/8 M + m ) x 1 /R²

= \frac{3mMg}{(3M +8m)}

What is the intensity of 60dB sound?​
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

The intensity of the sound in W/m² is 1 x 10⁻⁶ W/m².

Explanation:

Given;

intensity of the sound level, dB = 60 dB

The intensity of the sound in W/m² is calculated as;

dB = 10 Log[\frac{I}{I_o} ]\\\\

where;

I₀ is threshold of hearing = 1 x 10⁻¹² W/m²

I is intensity of the sound in W/m²

Substitute the given values and for I;

dB = 10 Log[\frac{I}{I_o} ]\\\\60 = 10 Log[\frac{I}{I_o} ]\\\\6 =  Log[\frac{I}{I_o} ]\\\\10^6 = \frac{I}{I_o} \\\\I = 10^6 \ \times \ I_o\\\\I = 10^6 \ \times \ 1^{-12} \ W/m^2 \\\\I = 1\ \times \ 10^{-6} \ W/m^2

Therefore, the intensity of the sound in W/m² is 1 x 10⁻⁶ W/m².
