Anettt [7]
<h2>Question:</h2>

In this circuit the resistance R1 is 3Ω, R2 is 7Ω, and R3 is 7Ω. If this combination of resistors were to be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance, what should that resistance be?

Answer:

9.1Ω

Explanation:

The circuit diagram has been attached to this response.

(i) From the diagram, resistors R1 and R2 are connected in parallel to each other. The reciprocal of their equivalent resistance, say Rₓ, is the sum of the reciprocals of the resistances of each of them. i.e

\frac{1}{R_X} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2}

=> R_{X} = \frac{R_1 * R_2}{R_1 + R_2}             ------------(i)

From the question;

R1 = 3Ω,

R2 = 7Ω

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

R_{X} = \frac{3 * 7}{3 + 7}

R_{X} = \frac{21}{10}

R_{X} = 2.1Ω

(ii) Now, since we have found the equivalent resistance (Rₓ) of R1 and R2, this resistance (Rₓ) is in series with the third resistor. i.e Rₓ and R3 are connected in series. This is shown in the second image attached to this response.

Because these resistors are connected in series, they can be replaced by a single resistor with an equivalent resistance R. Where R is the sum of the resistances of the two resistors: Rₓ and R3. i.e

R = Rₓ + R3

Rₓ = 2.1Ω

R3 = 7Ω

=> R = 2.1Ω + 7Ω = 9.1Ω

Therefore, the combination of the resistors R1, R2 and R3 can be replaced with a single resistor with an equivalent resistance of 9.1Ω

Dan is gliding on his skateboard at 2.00 m/s . He suddenly jumps backward off the skateboard, kicking the skateboard forward at
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The velocity of Dan is 1.13 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial velocity of skateboard and Dan = 2.00 m/s

Velocity of skateboard = 7.00 m/s

Mass of Dan m= 40.0 kg

Mass of skateboard M= 7.00 Kg

Suppose How fast is Dan going as his feet hit the ground?

We need to calculate the initial velocity of Dan

Using conservation of momentum

(m+M)v_{i}=mv_{f}+Mv_{f}

Put the value into the formula

(40.0+7.00)\times2.00=40.0\times v_{i}+7.00\times7.00

v_{i}=\dfrac{(40.0+7.00)\times2.00-7.00\times7.00}{40.0}

v_{i}=1.13\ m/s

Hence, The velocity of Dan is 1.13 m/s.

A vertical spring (spring constant =160 N/m) is mounted on the floor. A 0.340-kg block is placed on top of the spring and pushed
AleksandrR [38]

(a) 3.5 Hz

The angular frequency in a spring-mass system is given by

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where

k is the spring constant

m is the mass

Here in this problem we have

k = 160 N/m

m = 0.340 kg

So the angular frequency is

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{160 N/m}{0.340 kg}}=21.7 rad/s

And the frequency of the motion instead is given by:

f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}=\frac{21.7 rad/s}{2\pi}=3.5 Hz

(b) 0.021 m

The block is oscillating up and down together with the upper end of the spring. The block will lose contact with the spring when the direction of motion of the spring changes: this occurs when the spring is at maximum displacement, so at

x = A

where A is the amplitude of the motion.

The maximum displacement is given by Hook's law:

F=kA

where

F is the force applied initially to the spring, so it is equal to the weight of the block:

F=mg=(0.340 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=3.34 N

k = 160 N/m is the spring constant

Solving for A, we find

A=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{3.34 N}{160 N/m}=0.021 m
