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

What happens to the gravitational potential energy between two particles if the distance between them is halved? (a) It does not

mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The gravitational potential energy between two particles, if the distance between them is halved, is multiplied by 4 (option c).

Explanation:

The gravitational force is the force of mutual attraction that two objects with mass experience.

The Law of Universal Gravitation enunciated by Newton says that every material particle attracts any other material particle with a force directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them. Mathematically this is expressed as:

$F=G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }$

where m1 and m2 are the masses of the objects, r the distance between them and G a universal constant that receives the name of constant of gravitation.

If the distance between two particles is reduced by half, then, where F' is the new value of the gravitational force:

$F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{(\frac{r}{2} )^{2} }$

$F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{2^{2} } }$

$F'=G*\frac{m1*m2}{\frac{(r )^{2} }{4} }$

$F'=4*G*\frac{m1*m2}{r^{2} }$

F'=4*F

What is the mechanical advantage of a pulley system

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Pulleys accomplish 2 separate operations throughout the computer controlled additional benefit technologies listed elsewhere here.

Explanation:

If indeed the pulley would be connected to that same attachment point, these are named a corrected pendulum or perhaps a change in direction. Its job should be to reverse the trajectory of that same rope pull.
Unless the pulley would be connected to that same load, this same pulley seems to be a detachable as well as a mechanical additional benefit.
