(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)

A block lies on a horizontal frictionless surface. A horizontal force of 100 N is applied to the block giving rise to an acceler
KIM [24]

Answer:

(a) m = 33.3 kg

(b) d = 150 m

(c) vf = 30 m/s

Explanation:

Newton's second law to the block:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

Data

F= 100 N

a= 3.0 m/s²

(a) Calculating of the  mass of the block:

We replace dta in the formula (1)

F = m*a

100 =  m*3

m = 100 / 3

m = 33.3 kg

Kinematic analysis

Because the block  moves with uniformly accelerated movement we apply the following formulas:

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t² Formula (2)

vf= v₀+a*t   Formula (3)

Where:  

d:displacement in meters (m)  

t : time interval in seconds (s)

v₀: initial speed in m/s  

vf: final speed in m/s  

a: acceleration in m/s²

Data

a= 3.0 m/s²

v₀= 0

t = 10 s

(b) Distance the block will travel if the force is applied for 10 s

We replace dta in the formula (2):

d= v₀t+ (1/2)*a*t²

d = 0+ (1/2)*(3)*(10)²

d =150 m

(c) Calculate the speed of the block after the force has been applied for 10 s

We replace dta in the formula (3):

vf= v₀+a*t

vf= 0+(3*(10)

vf= 30 m/s

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?
butalik [34]
Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are <em>distinct</em>, and typically there's some idea of a <em>next </em>and a <em>previous </em>value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with <em>continuous </em>values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no <em />"next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured <em>quantitatively</em>, not <em>qualitatively</em>. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.

A child (approximately 4 years old) takes her metal “slinky Toy” (a flexible coiled metal spring) and does various tests to dete
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

248

Explanation:

L = Inductance of the slinky = 130 μH = 130 x 10⁻⁶ H

l = length of the slinky = 3 m

N = number of turns in the slinky

r = radius of slinky = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Area of slinky is given as

A = πr²

A = (3.14) (0.04)²

A = 0.005024 m²

Inductance is given as

L = \frac{\mu _{o}N^{2}A}{l}

130\times 10^{-6} = \frac{(12.56\times 10^{-7})N^{2}(0.005024)}{3}

N = 248

Wood has chemical energy, which can be used to generate thermal and radiant energy when burned in a fireplace. Which best explai
Marianna [84]

Answer:In the case of burning wood, stored potential energy (in the form of chemical energy) in the log is released due to heating by other excited atoms. This chemical reaction is called combustion and requires oxygen. Combustion changes the potential chemical energy into kinetic energy in the form of heat.
