Answer:
1.99 parsecs.
Explanation:
We have been given that the most recently discovered system close to Earth is a pair of brown dwarfs known as Luhman 16. It has a distance of 6.5 light-years.
We know that one light year equals to 0.306601 parsecs. To convert 6.5 light-years to parsecs, we will multiply 0.306601 by 6.5.



Therefore, Luhman 16 is approximately 1.99 parsecs away from the Earth.

1. All the relevant resistors are in series, so the total (or equivalent) resistance is the sum of the resistances of the resistors: 20 Ω + 80 Ω + 50 Ω = 150 Ω [choice A].
2. The ammeter will read the current flowing through this circuit. We can find the ammeter reading using Ohm's law in terms of the electromotive force provided by the battery: I = ℰ/R = (30 V)(150 Ω) = 0.20 A [choice C].
3. The voltmeter will measure the potential drop across the 50 Ω resistor, i.e., the voltage at that resistor. We know from question 2 that the current flowing through the resistor is 0.20 A. So, from Ohm's law, V = IR = (0.20 A)(50 Ω) = 10. V, which will be the voltmeter reading [choice F].
4. Trick question? If the circuit becomes open, then no current will flow. Moreover, even if the voltmeter were kept as element of the circuit, voltmeters generally have a very high resistance (an ideal voltmeter has infinite resistance), so the current moving through the circuit will be negligible if not nil. In any case, the ammeter reading would be 0 A [choice B].

Where:
is the final velocity of the projectile
is the initial velocity of the projectile
is the time
Solving:
This is the acceleration of the projectile
Explanation:
The moment of inertia of each disk is:
Idisk = 1/2 MR²
Using parallel axis theorem, the moment of inertia of each rod is:
Irod = 1/2 mr² + m (R − r)²
The total moment of inertia is:
I = 2Idisk + 5Irod
I = 2 (1/2 MR²) + 5 [1/2 mr² + m (R − r)²]
I = MR² + 5/2 mr² + 5m (R − r)²
Plugging in values:
I = (125 g) (5 cm)² + 5/2 (250 g) (1 cm)² + 5 (250 g) (5 cm − 1 cm)²
I = 23,750 g cm²
