Answer:

2volts

Explanation:

Let us assume the resistor are in series

Equivalent resistance = R + 2R + 3R

Equivalent resistance = 6R

Since different voltage flows through the resistors

V = IR

Given V = 12V

I = 2A

Assume R = 1ohms

V = IR

V = 2 * 1

V = 2volts

Hence the potential difference across the resister with resistance R is 2volts

By what factor is the self-inductance of an air solenoid changed if its length and number of coil turns are both tripled

fredd [130]

Answer:

The new self inductance is 3 times of the initial self inductance.

Explanation:

The self inductance of a solenoid is given by :

$L=\dfrac{\mu_oN^2 A}{L}$

Where

N is number of turns per unit length

A is area of cross section

l is length of solenoid

If length and number of coil turns are both tripled,

l' = 3l and N' = 3N

New self inductance is given by :

$L'=\dfrac{\mu_oN'^2 A}{L'}\\\\=\dfrac{\mu_o(3N)^2 A}{3L}\\\\=3\dfrac{\mu_oN^2 A}{L}\\\\=3L$

So, the new self inductance is 3 times of the initial self inductance.

When a roller coaster gets to the bottom of a descent, describe the energy transfers and changes to energy stores that happen if

Feliz [49]

Answer:

its B

Explanation:

It's B & A at the same time because A. a roller coaster uses brakes to slow down and stop. B is the most reasonable answer. Because all roller coasters go up and over a second time over the hill, but they also slow down. But go with B.

A 15 kg bucket of water is suspended by a very light ropewrapped around a solid uniform cylinder 0.300 m in diamter withmass 12.

matrenka [14]

Answer:

Part a)

$T = 42 N$

Part b)

$v_f = 11.8 m/s$

Part c)

$t = 1.7 s$

Part d)

$F = 159.7 N$

Explanation:

Part a)

While bucket is falling downwards we have force equation of the bucket given as

$mg - T = ma$

for uniform cylinder we will have

$TR = I\alpha$

so we have

$T = \frac{1}{2}MR^2(\frac{a}{R^2})$

$T = \frac{1}{2}Ma$

now we have

$mg = (\frac{M}{2} + m)a$

$a = \frac{mg}{(\frac{M}{2} + m)}$

$a = \frac{15 \times 9.81}{(6 + 15)}$

$a = 7 m/s^2$

now we have

$T = \frac{12 \times 7}{2}$

$T = 42 N$

Part b)

speed of the bucket can be found using kinematics

so we have

$v_f^2 - v_i^2 = 2 a d$

$v_f^2 - 0 = 2(7)(10)$

$v_f = 11.8 m/s$

Part c)

now in order to find the time of fall we can use another equation

$v_f - v_i = at$

$11.8 - 0 = 7 t$

$t = 1.7 s$

Part d)

as we know that cylinder is at rest and not moving downwards

so here we can use force balance

$F = T + Mg$

$F = 42 + (12 \times 9.81)$

$F = 159.7 N$
