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

(c) The Potential difference across the second resistor is

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

V₂ = 0.273×6

V₂ = 1.638 V

If 34.7 g of O2 reacts with iron to form 79.34 g of iron oxide, how much iron was used in the reaction?
zhuklara [117]

Answer: B. 44.64 g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Mass of reactants = mass of iron + mass of oxygen = mass of iron + 34.7 g

Mass of product = mass of iron oxide = 79.34 g

As Mass of reactants = Mass of product

mass of iron + 34.7 g = 79.34 g

mass of iron = 44.64 g

Thus 44.64 g of iron was used in the reaction

A 12.0-g bullet is fired horizontally into a 109-g wooden block that is initially at rest on a frictionless horizontal surface a
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

v₀ = 280.6 m / s

Explanation:

we have the shock between the bullet and the block that we can work with at the moment and another part where the assembly (bullet + block) compresses a spring, which we can work with mechanical energy,

We write the mechanical energy when the shock has passed the bodies

   Em₀ = K = ½ (m + M) v²

We write the mechanical energy when the spring is in maximum compression

Em_{f} = K_{e} \\= \frac{1}{2} kx^2\\    Em_0 = Em_{f}

½ (m + M) v² = ½ k x²

Let's calculate the system speed

   v = √ [k x² / (m + M)]

   v = √[152 ×0.78² / (0.012 +0.109) ]

   v = 27.65 m / s

This is the speed of the bullet + Block system

Now let's use the moment to solve the shock

Before the crash

   p₀ = m v₀

After the crash

p_{f} = (m + M) v

The system is formed by the bullet and block assembly, so the forces during the crash are internal and the moment is preserved

 p_0 =  p_{f}

  m v₀ = (m + M) v

  v₀ = v (m + M) / m

let's calculate

v₀ = 27.83 (0.012 +0.109) /0.012

  v₀ = 280.6 m / s

Trava [24]

Answer:

rotates faster

Explanation:

A huge rotating cloud of particles in space gravitate together to form an increasingly dense ball As it shrinks in size, the cloud rotates faster. Because Angular momentum is conserved, so when it shrinks the moment of inertia decreases, then angular speed must increase. So it rotates fast.
