(1 point) Unknown resistor in voltage divider Suppose that a power supply is connected across two resistors R1 and R2 that are c

onnected in series. The power supply voltage E, the voltage across the second resistor V2, and the first resistance R1 are all known, but R2 is not known. Find an expression for R2 in terms of E,R1,andV2

Answer:

R₂ = V₂R₁/(E + V₂)

Explanation:

By voltage divider, V₂ = ER₂/(R₁ + R₂)

So, cross-multiplying, we have

V₂(R₁ + R₂) = ER₂

expanding the bracket, we have

V₂R₁ + V₂R₂ = ER₂

collecting like terms, we have

V₂R₁ = ER₂ + V₂R₂

factorizing, we have

V₂R₁ = (E + V₂)R₂

dividing through by (E + V₂), we have

R₂ = V₂R₁/(E + V₂)

Use the passage to answer the question.
Studentka2010 [4]

This is not something that waves do because they need a medium to travel through, while particles do not.

<h3>How light travels in space?</h3>

A light travels without any medium while on the other hand, a medium is required for sound waves to move from oe place to another. Sound is a mechanical wave that cannot travel through a vacuum.

So we can conclude that electromagnetic waves like light do not require medium for its propagation.

Why do planets not travel in a straight path?
Elis [28]

Answer:

Because the gravitational attraction of the Sun hold them in motion around it

Explanation:

For an object travelling in a straight path at constant velocity, the net force acting on the object must be zero.

The planets in the Solar System, however, do not experience a zero net force: in fact, the Sun exerts a gravitational attraction on them, whose magnitude is given by

F=G\frac{Mm}{r^2}

where

G is the gravitational constant

M is the mass of the Sun

m is the mass of the planet

r is the average distance between the Sun and the planet

Due to the presence of this force, the Sun makes the planets 'deviating' from their straight path, forcing them to following an elliptical path around the Sun.

What happens to the ray of light when it travels from glass to water?
vodomira [7]

Glass and water are thicker and heavier than air. They are said to be 'denser' than air. What happens is that light slows down when it passes from the less dense air into the denser glass or water. This slowing down of the ray of light also causes the ray of light to change direction.
