Find the equivalent resistance of this parallel circuit with two strands.
svlad2 [7]
In a parallel circuit, the total resistance calculated from the individual resistances is computed from the formula: 1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2. substituting R1 and R2, then 
1/Rt = 1/7 + 1/49 
1/Rt = 1/6.125 = 1/ 49/8
Rt = 49/8 <span>Ω

The total resistance hence is </span>49/8 Ω

A child pushes a 100 kg refrigerator with a force of 50 N, but the refrigerator does not move. Suppose the coefficient of static
faust18 [17]

Answer:

50 N

Explanation:

Since the refrigerator doesn’t move, that means the force of friction equals the amount of force the child exerts on the fridge. If the friction force were greater than the force by the child, the fridge would start accelerating towards the child. If it were less than the force the child exerted, the fridge would start accelerating away from the child. Therefore, the net force must be 0, in this case, the friction force is equal to the force the child exerted, for it to stay at rest (as Newton’s First Law stated).

I hope this helps! :)

How do scientists use the Doppler effect to understand the universe?
professor190 [17]
There's a very subtle thing going on here, one that could blow your mind.

Wherever we look in the universe, no matter what direction we look,
we see the light from distant galaxies arriving at our telescopes with
longer wavelengths than the light SHOULD have.

The only way we know of right now that can cause light waves to get
longer after they leave the source is motion of the source away from
the observer. The lengthening of the waves on account of that motion
is called the Doppler effect.  (The answer to the question is choice-c.)

But that may not be the only way that light waves can get stretched.  It's
the only way we know of so far, and so we say that the distant galaxies
are all moving away from us. 

From that, we say the whole universe is expanding, and that right there is
one of the strongest observations that we explain with the Big Bang theory
of creation.

Now:  If ... say tomorrow ... a competent Physicist discovers another way
for light waves to get stretched after they leave the source, then the whole
"expanding universe" idea is out the window, and probably the Big Bang
theory along with it !


Now that our mind has been blown, come back down to Earth with me,
and I'll give you something else to think about:

It's true that when we look at distant galaxies, we do see their light
arriving in our telescopes with longer wavelengths than it should have.
And then we use the Doppler effect to calculate how fast that galaxy
is moving away from us.  That's all true.  Astronomers are doing it
every day.                                   I mean every night.

So here's the question for you to think about ... maybe even READ about:

When the light from a distant galaxy pours into our telescope, and we
look at it, and we measure its wavelength, and we find that the wavelength
is longer than it should be ... how do we know what it should be ? ? ?

What is the force holding you down?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

The force holding you down is gravity.

Explanation:

Gravity is a force between two objects with mass. It pulls things together. You have mass, and the Earth has mass, so gravity tries to pull you and the Earth together. The gravitational force is much bigger for more massive objects.

The structural diversity of carbon-based molecules is determined by which properties?
Leokris [45]

Explanation:

The structural diversity of carbon-based molecules is determined by following properties:

1. the ability of those bonds to rotate freely,

2.the ability of carbon to form four covalent bonds,

3.the orientation of those bonds in the form of a tetrahedron.
