Answer:
16.8ohms
Explanation:
According to ohm's law which states that the current passing through a metallic conductor at constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across its ends.
Mathematically, V = IRt where;
V is the voltage across the circuit
I is the current
R is the effective resistance
For a series connected circuit, same current but different voltage flows through the resistors.
If the initial current in a circuit is 19.3A,
V = 19.3R... (1)
When additional resistance of 7.4-Ω is added and current drops to 13.4A, our voltage in the circuit becomes;
V = 13.4(7.4+R)... (2)
Note that the initial resistance is added to the additional resistance because they are connected in series.
Equating the two value of the voltages i.e equation 1 and 2 to get the resistance in the original circuit we will have;
19.3R = 13.4(7.4+R)
19.3R = 99.16+13.4R
19.3R-13.4R = 99.16
5.9R = 99.16
R= 99.16/5.9
R = 16.8ohms
The resistance in the original circuit will be 16.8ohms
Answer:
The velocity of the motorboat after 6s is 24 m/s.
Explanation:
Given;
acceleration of the motorboat, a = 4.0 m/s²
initial velocity of the motorboat, u = 0
time of motion of the motorboat = 6s
Apply the following kinematic equation to determine the velocity of the motorboat after 6 ;
v = u + at
v = 0 + (4 x 6)
v = 24 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the motorboat after 6s is 24 m/s.
Answer: B. development of female sex
Development of female sex characteristic is not associated with the amount of cortisol in the body.
Explanation:
Cortisol is a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal gland. It facilitates stress response, regulates blood sugar level and helps fight infections. High cortisol level leads to Cushing syndrome and low cortisol level leads to Addison disease.
Obesity is a symptom of Cushing syndrome while weight loss is a symptom of Addison disease. Thus levels of cortisol can affect body weight as well. When in a stressful situation, our body pumps excess cortisol.
Cortisol level in our body is generally high in the mornings and low in the midnight.
The answer is B community based sports program
