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

Please help. I don’t understand this
skad [1K]

The short answer is that the displacement is equal tothe area under the curve in the velocity-time graph. The region under the curve in the first 4.0 s is a triangle with height 10.0 m/s and length 4.0 s, so its area - and hence the displacement - is

1/2 • (10.0 m/s) • (4.0 s) = 20.00 m

Another way to derive this: since velocity is linear over the first 4.0 s, that means acceleration is constant. Recall that average velocity is defined as

<em>v</em> (ave) = ∆<em>x</em> / ∆<em>t</em>

and under constant acceleration,

<em>v</em> (ave) = (<em>v</em> (final) + <em>v</em> (initial)) / 2

According to the plot, with ∆<em>t</em> = 4.0 s, we have <em>v</em> (initial) = 0 and <em>v</em> (final) = 10.0 m/s, so

∆<em>x</em> / (4.0 s) = (10.0 m/s) / 2

∆<em>x</em> = ((4.0 s) • (10.0 m/s)) / 2

∆<em>x</em> = 20.00 m

A racquetball strikes a wall with a speed of 30 m/s and rebounds in the opposite direction with a speed of 26 m/s. The collision
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the ball during the collision with the wall is a=2,800m/s^{2}

Explanation:

<u>Known Data</u>

We will asume initial speed has a negative direction, v_{i}=-30m/s, final speed has a positive direction, v_{f}=26m/s, \Delta t=20ms=0.020s and mass m_{b}.

<u>Initial momentum</u>

p_{i}=mv_{i}=(-30m/s)(m_{b})=-30m_{b}\ m/s

<u>final momentum</u>

p_{f}=mv_{f}=(26m/s)(m_{b})=26m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Impulse</u>

I=\Delta p=p_{f}-p_{i}=26m_{b}\ m/s-(-30m_{b}\ m/s)=56m_{b}\ m/s

<u>Average Force</u>

F=\frac{\Delta p}{\Delta t} =\frac{56m_{b}\ m/s}{0.020s} =2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}

<u>Average acceleration</u>

F=ma, so a=\frac{F}{m_{b}}.

Therefore, a=\frac{2800m_{b} \ m/s^{2}}{m_{b}} =2800m/s^{2}

If Fg=mg solve for g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:Fg = mg however newtons second law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to it's mass times it's acceleration so what allows us to say that Fg = mg because certainly not for every single situation the net force is going to equal to the force of gravity please explain... what allows us to say Fg = mg
