Series,effective resistance =R₁+R₂+R₃...
parallel,effective resistance 1/R=1/R₁ +1/R₂ +1/R₃...

Here,effective resistance 1/R =1/7 +1/5+ 1/4+1/2
=1.092
R = 1/1.092 =0.915Ω
voltage V=9 V
current I=V/R
I=9 / 0.915
=9.83 A

Parallel resistance = <u /> $\frac{1}{7}$ + $\frac{1}{5}$ + $\frac{1}{4}$ + $\frac{1}{2}$
= $\frac{140}{153}$

now , V= 9V
V = IR
I = $\frac{V}{R}$
I = $\frac{9}{140}$ x 153
I = 9.835714 A

A wire with a linear mass density of 1.17 g/cm moves at a constant speed on a horizontal surface and the coefficient of kinetic

stira [4]

Answer:

The value is $B = 0.2312 \ T$

The direction is into the surface

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass density is $\mu =\frac{m}{L} = 1.17 \ g/cm =0.117 kg/m$

The coefficient of kinetic friction is $\mu_k = 0.250$

The current the wire carries is $I = 1.24 \ A$

Generally the magnetic force acting on the wire is mathematically represented as

$F_F = F_B$

Here $F_F$ is the frictional force which is mathematically represented as

$F_F = \mu_k * m * g$

While $F_B$ is the magnetic force which is mathematically represented as

$F_B = BILsin(\theta )$

Here $\theta =90^o$ is the angle between the direction of the force and that of the current

So

$F_B = BIL$

So

$BIL = \mu_k * m * g$

=> $B = \mu_k * \frac{m}{L} * [\frac{g}{I} ]$

=> $B = 0.25 * 0.117 * [\frac{9.8}{1.24} ]$

=> $B = 0.2312 \ T$

Apply the right hand curling rule , the thumb pointing towards that direction of the current we see that the direction of the magnetic field is into the surface as shown on the first uploaded image

A segment is divided into two parts having lengths in the ratio of 5:3. If the difference between the length of the parts is 6",

Triss [41]

Answer:

15"

Explanation:

Let x be the length of the longer part, then the length of the shorter part is 3x/5, or also x - 6

therefore we have the following equation:

3x/5 = x - 6

We can multiply both sides by 5

3x = 5x - 6*5

2x = 30

x = 30/2 = 15"

So the length of the longer part is 15"

A cheetah and a gazelle are grazing in the savannah. The gazelle is 275 meters away from the gazelle safe zone and the cheetah i

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1) Yes, the gazelle gets to safety

2) The speed with which the gazelle needs to run, to beat the cheater by 2 seconds is approximately 29.79 m/s

Explanation:

1) The distance of the gazelle, from the gazelle safe zone = 275 m

The distance of the cheetah from the gazelle = 455 m

The speed of the gazelle = 25 m/s

The speed of the cheetah = 65 m/s

Therefore, we have;

Let the time the gazelle reaches the safe zone = t, which gives;

t = 275 m/(25 m/s) = 11

t = 11 seconds

Let the time the cheetah reaches the gazelle = t₁, we have;

455 + 25 × t₁ = 65 × t₁

t₁ = 455/40 = 11.375

t₁ = 11.375 seconds

The gazelle reaches the gazelle safe zone before the cheetah reaches the gazelle

Therefore, the gazelle gets to safety

2) In order for the gazelle to beat the gazelle by 2 seconds, we have;

The time for the cheetah to reach the safe zone = (275 + 455)/65 = 11.23 seconds

Therefore, we have;

In order for the gazelle to beat the gazelle by 2 seconds the time the cheetah reaches the safe zone = 11.23 - 2 = 9.23 s

The speed of the gazelle is then 275/9.23 ≈ 29.79 m/s
