Does the sun sun traces shortest path across local sky on june solstice

viktelen [127]

The June solstice in the Northern hemisphere is the summer solstice. The June Solstice in the Southern hemisphere is the winter solstice. The summer solstice is equivalent to the longest day while the winter solstice is equivalent to the shortest day. Therefore on the local sky, when is the June solstice we have have the longest day (longest path of sun in the sky) in the Northern hemisphere and the shortest day (shortest path of sun in the sky) in the Southern hemisphere.

A 15.0 Ohms resistor is connected in series to a 120V generator and two 10.0 Ohms resistors that are connected in parallel to ea

Nostrana [21]

Hi there! :)

Reference the diagram below for clarification.

1.

We must begin by knowing the following rules for resistors in series and parallel.

In series:
$R_T = R_1 + R_2 + ... + R_n$

In parallel:
$\frac{1}{R_T} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + ... + \frac{1}{R_n}$

We can begin solving for the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel using the parallel rules.

$\frac{1}{R_{T, parallel}} = \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{10}\\\\\frac{1}{R_{T, parallel}} = \frac{2}{10} = \frac{1}{5}\\\\R_{T, parallel} = 5\Omega$

Now that we have reduced the parallel resistors to a 'single' resistor, we can add their equivalent resistance with the other resistor in parallel (15 Ohm) using series rules:
$R_T = 15 + 5\\\\\boxed{R_T = 20 \Omega}$

2.

We can use Ohm's law to solve for the current in the circuit.

$i = \frac{V}{R_T}\\\\i = \frac{120}{20} = \boxed{6 A}$

3.

For resistors in series, both resistors receive the SAME current.

Therefore, the 15Ω resistor receives 6A, and the parallel COMBO (not each individual resistor, but the 5Ω equivalent when combined) receives 6A.

In this instance, since both of the resistors in parallel are equal, the current is SPLIT EQUALLY between the two. (Current in parallel ADDS UP). Therefore, an even split between 2 resistors of 6 A is <u>3A for each 10Ω resistor</u>.

4.

Since the 15.0 Ω resistor receives 6A, we can use Ohm's Law to solve for voltage.

$V = iR\\\\V = (6)(15) = \boxed{90 V}$

Pick an activity you enjoy, such as running or riding a scooter, and describe how newton's laws apply to that activity.

I like playing basketball. So I'm the object in motion. Until an unbalanced force comes and hits me I fall and stay at rest.

honor physics The velocity of a 200 kg object is changed from 5 m/s to 25 m/s in 50 seconds by an applied constant force. a. Wha

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

(a) 4000 kgm/s.

(b) 80 N

Explanation:

(a) Change in momentum: This can be defined as the product of the mass of a body and its change in velocity. The S.I unit of impulse is Ns or kgm/s

Mathematically, Change in momentum is expressed as

ΔM = mΔv ..................................... Equation 1

Where ΔM = change in momentum, m = mass of the object, Δv = change in velocity = v₂ - v₁

Given: m = 200 kg, Δv = v₂ - v₁ = 25-5 = 20 m/s.

Substituting into equation 1

ΔM = 200(20)

ΔM = 4000 kgm/s.

Hence the change in momentum = 4000 kgm/s

(b)

Force: This can be defined as the ratio of the change in momentum of a body to the time required for the change.

F = ΔM/t.............................. Equation 2

Where F = force, ΔM = change in momentum, t = time.

Given: ΔM = 4000 kgm/s, t = 50 second.

Substituting into equation 2

F = 4000/50

F = 80 N.

Hence the force = 80 N
