Answer:

 R_eq = 6 Ω

Explanation:

In a series circuit the current is constant throughout the circuit and the resistance is the sum of all the resistances in it.

         R_eq = ∑

in this case we have

         R_eq = R₁1 + 3 R₂

where R₁ is the resistance of the fan and R₂ the resistance of each light, we must clarify that we will assume that the resistance of the lights does not change with temperature

let's calculate

          R_eq = 3 + 3 1

           R_eq = 6 Ω

A particular form of electromagnetic radiation has a frequency of 5.42x10^15 Hz. What is the wavelength is nanometers? meters?
zubka84 [21]
Electromagnetic radiation are represented in waves. Each type of wave has a certain shape and length. The distance between two peaks in a wave is called the wavelength. This value is equal to the speed of light divided by the frequency.
Wavelength = c/f
Wavelength = 3x10^8 / <span>5.42x10^15
</span><span>Wavelength = 5.54 x 10^-8 m = 55.35 nm</span>

Consider a spherical capacitor with radius of the inner conducting sphere a and the outer shell b. The outer shell is grounded (
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The application of Gauss's law is used in the derivation as shown with detailed step by step in the attached file.

The potential difference on this spherical capacitor is ΔV = Va - Vb = kQ/a - kQ/b = kQ(1/a - 1/b)

Question #5: Explain how a reflecting telescope is different from a refracting telescope. List the two different types of reflec
Anni [7]

The main component in a reflecting telescope is a mirror where the light will bounce off and is then focused into a smaller area. In contrast, a refracting telescope uses lenses that focus the light as it travels towards the other end.

Two different types of reflecting telescopes are:

1.Cassegrain reflector

2.Newtonian telescope

Explanation:

  • The distinction between the two is in how they manipulate the incoming light in order to magnify the image. The main component in a reflecting telescope is a mirror where the light will bounce off and is then focused into a smaller area.
  • Key advantage of reflecting telescopes is how big you can make them. With lenses, the maximum size is limited to about one meter, largely because of the problems stated above as well as the skyrocketing costs.
  • The Newtonian telescope, also called the Newtonian reflector, is a type of reflecting telescope invented Sir Isaac Newton, using a concave primary mirror and a flat diagonal secondary mirror. The Newtonian telescope's simple design has made it very popular with amateur telescope makers.
  • The Cassegrain reflector is a combination of a primary concave mirror and a secondary convex mirror, often used in optical telescopes and radio antennas, the main characteristic being that the optical path folds back onto itself, relative to the optical system's primary mirror entrance aperture.
