Answer:

Explanation:

a) series resistors carry the same current

A = V/Re = 6/(16 + 6) = 0.2727272... ≈ 27 mA

b) V = V₀(R/Re) = 6(16/(16 + 6)) = 4.363636 ≈ 4.4 V

c) V = V₀(R/Re) = 6(6/(16 + 6)) = 1.636363 ≈ 1.6 V

or V = 6 - 4.4 = 1.6 V

Answer:

(a) 0.273 A

(b) 4.368 V

(c) 1.638 V

Explanation:

From the question,

(a) Applying ohm's law

V = IR'...................... Equation 1

Where V = Voltage of the battery, I = Current in each of the resistor, R' = Total resistance of the combined resistors

Since the Two resisstors are connected in series,

(i) The same current flows through both resistors

(ii) The total resistor (R') = R₁+R₂

Therefore,

V = (R₁+R₂)I

Make I the subject of the equation

I = V/(R₁+R₂)................. Equation 2

Given: V = 6 V, R₁ = 16 Ω, R₂ = 6 Ω

Substitute into equation 2

I = 6/(16+6)

I = 6/22

I = 0.273 A

(b) The potential difference across the first resisto

V₁ = IR₁...................... Equation 3

Given: I = 0.273 A, R₁ = 16 Ω

Substitute these values into equation 3

V₁ = 0.273(16)

V₁ = 4.368 V

V₂ = IR₂.................... Equation 4

V₂ = 0.273×6

V₂ = 1.638 V

Answer:

The right answer is:

(a) 63.83 kg

(b) 0.725 m/s

Explanation:

The given query seems to be incomplete. Below is the attachment of the full question is attached.

The given values are:

T = 3 sec

k = 280 N/m

(a)

The mass of the string will be:

⇒ $T=2 \pi\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

or,

⇒ $m=\frac{k T^2}{4 \pi^2}$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\frac{280\times (3)^2}{4 \pi^2}$

⇒ $=\frac{280\times 9}{4\times (3.14)^2}$

⇒ $=68.83 \ kg$

(b)

The speed of the string will be:

⇒ $\frac{1}{2}k(0.4)^2=\frac{1}{2}k(0.2)^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

then,

⇒ $v=\sqrt{\frac{k((0.4)^2-(0.2)^2)}{m} }$

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ $=\sqrt{\frac{280\times ((0.4)^2-(0.2)^2)}{63.83} }$

⇒ $=\sqrt{\frac{280(0.16-0.04)}{63.83} }$

⇒ $=\sqrt{\frac{280\times 0.12}{63.83} }$

⇒ $=0.725 \ m/s$
