Three resistors of 10.0 W, 20.0 W, and 25.0 W are connected in parallel across a 100-V battery. What is the equivalent resistanc

In a parallel connection, the equivalent resistance is the summation of the inverse of each individual resistances. It is mathematically expressed as 1/ Req = 1/10 +1/20 + 1/25 = 5.263 ohms. Also, the voltage across each resistor is equal to the input voltage, therefore I = 100 / 10 = 10 Amps. I hope this helped you.

In an experiment, a shearwater (a seabird) was taken from its nest, flown a distance 5220 km away, and released. It found its wa
Korolek [52]

Answer:

4.6834625323 m/s

0 m/s

Explanation:

s = Displacement

t = Time

Velocity is given by

v=\dfrac{s}{t}\\\Rightarrow v=\dfrac{5220000}{12.9\times 24\times 60\times 60}\\\Rightarrow v=4.6834625323\ m/s

The bird's average velocity for the return flight is 4.6834625323 m/s

In the whole episode the bird went 5220 km away from its nest and came back. This means the displacement is zero.

Hence, the average velocity for the whole episode is 0 m/s

An airplane is flying from Dallas, Texas to Pensacola, Florida. Flying at maximum velocity, it encounters strong winds moving at
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

G. It will take twice as long.

Explanation:

Let's call v the original speed of the plane and d the distance between Dallas and Pensacola. The time the plane originally takes to complete the flight is

t=\frac{d}{v}

In this problem, we are told that the plane encounters wind moving at half of its speed: \frac{v}{2}, in the opposite direction. This means that the new speed of the plane is

v'=v-\frac{v}{2}=\frac{v}{2}

And so, the time the plane takes now to complete the flight is

t'=\frac{d}{v/2}=2\frac{d}{v}=2t

So, the plane takes twice the time as before.

If you measure the amount of work accomplished in a particular time interval, u have measured-
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The power

Explanation:

We know that the work definition is given by the following expression:

W = F * d

where:

F = force [Newtons] [N]

d = distance [meters] [m]

W = work [Joules]

And the expression that defines the work done by unit of time is called - <u>Power</u>, therefore:

P = W/t

where:

P = power [watts] [w]

W = work [Joules] [J]

t = time [seconds] [s]

An electron in a television tube is accelerated uniformly from rest to a speed of 8.4\times 10^7~\text{m/s}8.4×10 ​7 ​​ m/s over
stich3 [128]

Answer:

P=3.42×10^-6 J/s

Explanation:

From the kinematics of motion with constant acceleration we know that :  

vf^2=vi^2+2*a(xf-xi)

Where :

• vf , vi, are the the final and the initial velocity of the electron  

• a is the acceleration of the electron  

• xf , xi are the final and the initial position of the electron .

Strategy for solving the problem : at first from the given information we calculate the acceleration of the electron.  

Givens: vf = 8.4 x 10^7 m/s , vi, = 0 m/s , xf = 0.025 m and xi = 0 m  

vf^2 =vi^2+2*a(xf-xi)

vf^2-vi^2=2*a(xf-xi)

2*a(xf-xi)= vf^2-vi^2

          a = (vf^2-vi^2)/2(xf-xi)

Pluging known information to get :

a = (vf^2-vi^2)/2(xf-xi)

  = 1.411 × 10^17

From the acceleration and the previous Eq. we can calculate the final velocity of the electron but a new position xf = 0.01 m  

so,

vf^2 =vi^2+2*a(xf-xi)

vf^2 =5.312× 10^7

From the following Eq. we can calculate the time elapsed in this motion .  

xf =xi+vi*t+1/2*a*t

xf =xi+vi*t+1/2*a*t

  t=√2(xf-xi)/a

 t=3.765×10^-10 s

now we can use the power P Eq.  

 P=W/Δt => ΔK/Δt  

Where: the work done W change the kinetic energy K of the electron ,

ΔK=Kf-Ki=>1/2*m*vf^2-1/2*m*vi^2

P=1/2*m*vf^2-1/2*m*vi^2/Δt

P=3.42×10^-6 J/s
