Answer:

R = 4Ω

Explanation:

If we have two resistors with resistances R1 and R2 in series the total resistance is R = R1 + R2

If the resistances are in parallel, the total resistance is given by:

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2.

First, we have a resistor with R1 = 1.5Ω

This resistor is connected in series with a parallel part (let's find the resistance of this parallel part), in one branch we have two resistors in series with resistances:

R2 = 8Ω and R3 = 4Ω

Because these are in series, the resistance of that branch is:

R = 8Ω + 4Ω = 12Ω

In the other branch, we have a single resistor of R4 = 4Ω

The resistance of the parallel part is:

1/R = 1/12Ω + 1/4Ω = 1/12Ω + 3/12Ω = 4/12Ω = 1/3Ω

1/R = 1/3Ω

R = 3Ω

Then we have a resistor (the first one, R1 = 1.5Ω) in series with a resistor of 3Ω.

Then the total resistance is:

R = 1Ω + 3Ω = 4Ω

A pilot heads his jet due east. The jet has a speed of 425 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed

Alja [10]

Answer:

(a)Velocity of wind = 35 j

(b)Velocity of jet relative to air = 425 i

(c)True velocity of jet = 425 i + 35 j

(d)True speed of jet = $\sqrt{425^{2}+35^{2}}$ = 426.88 mi/h

Direction of jet is, ∅ = $tan^{-1} \frac{40}{425}$ = 5.38°

Explanation:

We can represent east direction by i and north direction by j.

The jet has a relative speed of 425 mi/h relative to the air.

The wind is blowing due north with a speed of 35 mi/h = 35 j

425 mi/h is the relative speed with respect to wind that is

Velocity of jet wrt wind= $V_{jw}$ = $V_{j}-V_{w}$

425 i = $V_{j}$ - 35 j

$V_{j}$ = 425 i + 35 j

(a)Velocity of wind = 35 j

(b)Velocity of jet relative to air = 425 i

(c)True velocity of jet = 425 i + 35 j

(d)True speed of jet = $\sqrt{425^{2}+35^{2}}$ = 426.88 mi/h

Direction of jet is,

∅ = $tan^{-1} \frac{40}{425}$ = 5.38°

Why do scientists not use US customary units when reporting their data?

Marianna [84]

From britaññica it said time and money. They didn’t have either to switch over from the industrial period and never did. Also from my own person reasoning i think most of the world uses not US customary, so to make stuff more accessible. hope this helps!

What is the most likely reason that Mendeleev placed tellurium before iodine?

Ilya [14]

Mendeleev watched that tellurium has compound properties like different components in its gathering, and he didn't realize that neutrons cause the more noteworthy nuclear mass. Mendeleev expressed that he anticipated that tellurium would have a lower nuclear mass than iodine.
