Answer:

Current in circuit = 2 amp

Explanation:

Given:

Voltage of battery = 10 V

First Resistance R1 = 1 ohm

Second Resistance R2 = 4 ohm

Resistor connected in series

Find:

Current in circuit

Computation;

Resistor connected in series

So,

Total resistance R = First Resistance R1 + Second Resistance R2

Total resistance R = 1 ohm + 4 ohm

Total resistance R = 5 ohm

Current in circuit = V / R

Current in circuit = 10 / 5

Current in circuit = 2 amp

A roller coaster is released from the top of a track that is 57 m high. Find the roller coaster speed when it reaches ground lev

Art [367]

Hi there!

Assuming the track is frictionless:

$E_i = E_f\\\\PE = KE\\\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Cancel out the masses and rearrange to solve for velocity:

$gh = \frac{1}{2}v^{2}\\\\v = \sqrt{2gh}\\\\$

Plug in the given height and let g = 9.8 m/s²:

$v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(57)} = \boxed{33.42 m/s}$

describe the relationship between the direction of the velocity vector and the direction of the acceleration for a body moving i

Xelga [282]

Answer:

a = v²/r

Explanation:

The acceleration of a body moving in a circular path is known as the centripetal acceleration. This is the acceleration of a body that keeps the body within the circular path. It is written in terms of the linear velocity v and the radius of the circle of rotation as shown;

a = v²/r where

v is the linear velocity

r is the radius

a is the centripetal acceleration

What are two things that the amount of gravitational force between two object depends on

Amiraneli [1.4K]

1). the product of the two masses being gravitationally attracted to each other

2). the distance between their centers of mass

And that's IT. The gravitational force between them depends on
only those two things, nothing else.
