Answer:

350N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the man = 125kg

Mass of the watermelon = 6kg

Mass of cantaloupe  = 3kg

Mass of potatoes  = 6kg

Acceleration  = 2.5m/s²  

Unknown:

Force required to get home  = ?

Solution:

To find this force we use;

    Force  = mass x acceleration

mass  = 125 + 6 + 3 + 6  = 140kg

 So;

      Net force = 140 x 2.5  = 350N

Which of the following circuits can be used to measure the resistance of the heating element, shown as a resistor in the diagram
Wewaii [24]

In order to measure the resistance in the circuit, we need to know the voltage V and the current I in the circuit, this way we can calculate the resistance using the formula:

R=\frac{V}{I}

In order to calculate the current, we can use an amperemeter that must be in series with the circuit, this way it will not affect the circuit.

And in order to calculate the voltage, we can use a voltmeter that must be in parallel with the resistance, this way it will not affect the circuit.

The correct option that shows an amperemeter in series and a voltmeter in parallel is the fourth option.
