What's the voltage drop running through the parallel portion of the circuit?
Leni [432]
R 3/4 = (R3 * R4) / (R3 + R 4) = ( 9 * 18 ) /(9 + 18 ) = 162 / 27 = 6 Ohms
R e = R 1 + R 2 + R 3/4 + R 5 = 3 + 6 + 6 + 15 = 30 Ohms
I = U / Re = 90 V / 30 Ohms = 3 A
Finally for the voltage U 3/4 ( the parallel portion of the circuit ):
U 3/4 = 6 Ohms * 3 A = 18 V
Answer: 18 V

A group of hikers hear an echo 2.6 s after they shout. The temperature is 20 ◦C. How far away is the mountain that reflected the
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

x = 445.9\,m

Explanation:

The velocity of sound in air at 20 °C is 343 meters per second. The distance of mountain can be derived by the following expression:

2\cdot x = v_{air}\cdot \Delta t

x = \frac{v_{air}\cdot \Delta t}{2}

x = \frac{(343\,\frac{m}{s} )\cdot (2.6\,s)}{2}

x = 445.9\,m

Which of the following would double the amount of current flowing through a piece of metal wire?
adelina 88 [10]
Considering the answers.
1. Halve the voltage across it
2. Quarter the voltage across it
3. Double the voltage across it
4. Quadruple the voltage across

The appropriate answer would be 3. Double the voltage. According to ohms law the current through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two points at a constant resistance. Therefore a increase in voltage causes a corresponding increase in the current.

An airplane flying parallel to the ground undergoes two consecutive dis- placements. The first is 75 km 30.0° west of north, and
torisob [31]

Answer: displacement of airplane is 172 km in direction 34.2 degrees East of North

Explanation:

In constructing the two displacements it is noticed that the angle between the 75 km vector and the 155 km vector is a right angle (90 degrees).

 

Hence if the plane starts out at A, it travels to B, 75 km away, then turns 90 degrees to the right (clockwise) and travels to C, 155 km away from B. Angle ABC is 90 degrees, hence we can use Pythagoras theorem to solve for AC

 

AC2 = AB2 + BC2 ; AC^2 = 752 + 1552  ; from this we get AC = 172 km (3 significant figures)

 

Angle BAC = Tan-1(155/75) ; giving angle BAC = 64.2 degrees

 

Hence AC is in a direction (64.2 - 30) = 34.2 degrees East of North

 

Therefore the displacement of the airplane is 172 km in a direction 34.2 degrees East of North
