In aviation, it is helpful for pilots to know the cloud celling, which is the distance between the ground and lowest cloud. The

simplest way to measure this is by using a spotlight to shine a beam of light up at the clouds and measuring the angle between the ground ad where the beam hits the clouds. If the spotlight on the ground is 0.75 kg from the hangar door as shown in the image below, what is the cloud ceiling?

A 10Ω and a 15Ω resistor are connected in series across a 110V potential difference. (Can you find them) please help
Serggg [28]

Answer:

(A) The total resistance of the circuit is 25 Ω

(B) The current through each resistor is 4.4 A

(C) For 10Ω: Potential drop = 44 V

     For 15Ω: Potential drop = 66 V

Explanation:

Given;

potential difference, V = 110V

resistors in series, = 10Ω and a 15Ω

(A) The total resistance of the circuit is calculated as follows;

Rt = 10Ω + 15Ω = 25Ω

(B) The current through each resistor;

Same current will flow through the two resistors since they are in series.

I = V/Rt

I = 110 / 25

I = 4.4 A

(C) The voltage drop across each resistor;

For 10Ω: Potential drop = IR₁ = 4.4 x 10 = 44 V

For 15Ω: Potential drop = IR₂ = 4.4 x 15 = 66 V

A 1,800kg rollercoaster is going down a hill with a kinetic energy of 25,000J. What is the velocity of the rollercoaster going d
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

K. E = (mv^2)/2

Explanation:

  1. 25000= (1800× v^2)/2
  2. 25000×2= (1800× v^2)
  3. 50000=1800×v^2
  4. 50000/1800= v^2
  5. 27.77777777= V^2
  6. 5.27038=V

Velocity (V) = 5.270 m/sec

Please mark branliest if you are satisfied with the answer. Thanking you in anticipation.
