Answer:

Bi. Current in 15.4 Ω (R₁) is 7.14 A.

Bii. Current in 21.9 Ω (R₂) is 5.02 A.

Biii. Current in 11.7 Ω (R₃) is 9.40 A.

C. Total current in the circuit is 21.56 A.

Explanation:

Bi. Determination of the current in 15.4 Ω (R₁)

Voltage (V) = 110 V

Resistance (R₁) = 15.4 Ω

Current (I₁) =?

V = I₁R₁

110 = I₁ × 15.4

Divide both side by 15.4

I₁ = 110 / 15.4

I₁ = 7.14 A

Therefore, the current in 15.4 Ω (R₁) is 7.14 A.

Bii. Determination of the current in 21.9 Ω (R₂)

Voltage (V) = 110 V

Resistance (R₂) = 21.9 Ω

Current (I₂) =?

V = I₂R₂

110 = I₂ × 21.9

Divide both side by 21.9

I₂ = 110 / 21.9

I₂ = 5.02 A

Therefore, the current in 21.9 Ω (R₂) is 5.02 A

Biii. Determination of the current in 11.7 Ω (R₃)

Voltage (V) = 110 V

Resistance (R₃) = 11.7 Ω

Current (I₃) =?

V = I₃R₃

110 = I₃ × 11.7

Divide both side by 11.7

I₃ = 110 / 11.7

I₃ = 9.40 A

Therefore, the current in 11.7 Ω (R₃) is 9.40 A.

C. Determination of the total current.

Current 1 (I₁) = 7.14 A

Current 2 (I₂) = 5.02 A

Current 3 (I₃) = 9.40 A

Total current (Iₜ) =?

Iₜ = I₁ + I₂ + I₃

Iₜ = 7.14 + 5.02 + 9.40

Iₜ = 21.56 A

Therefore, the total current in the circuit is 21.56 A

The mass of the sun is 2*10^30 kg and its radius is

Marta_Voda [28]

Explanation:

Distance d=1.5×108 km=1.5×1011 m

Mass of the sun, m=2×1030 kg

Mass of the earth, M=6×1024 kg

Force of gravitation, F=G×d2m×M

F=6.7×10−11×(1.5×1011)22×1030×6×1024=3.57×1022 N

Kepler deduced this law of motion from observations of Mars. What information confirms his conclusion that the orbit of Mars is

Leno4ka [110]

Kepler noticed an imaginary line drawn from a planet to the Sun and this line swept out an equal area of space in equal times, If we then draw a triangle out from the Sun to a planet’s position at one point in time, it is notice that the area doesn't change even after the planet has left the original position say like after 2 to 3days or 2hours. So to have same area of triangle means that the the planet move faster when that are closer to the sun and slowly when they are far from the sun.

This led to Kepler's law of orbital motion.

First Law: Planetary orbits are elliptical with the sun at a focus.

Second Law: The radius vector from the sun to a planet sweeps equal areas in equal times.

Third Law: The ratio of the square of the period of revolution and the cube of the ellipse semi-major axis is the same for all planets.

It is this Kepler's law that makes Newton to come up with his own laws on how planet moves the way they do.

An observer moving toward Earth with a speed of 0.84 c notices that it takes 5.1 min for a person to fill her car with gas. Supp

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

t₂=6.35min

Explanation:

t₁ = first observed time (=5.1 min)

t₂ = unknown; this is the quantity we want to find

V₁ = observer's initial speed (=0.84c)

V₂ = observer's final speed (=0.90c)

Lorentz factors for V₁ and V₂:

γ₁ = 1/√(1−(V₁/c)²)

γ₂ = 1/√(1−(V₂/c)²)

The "proper time" (the time measured by the person filling her car) is:

t′ = t₁/γ₁

The proper time is stated to be the same for both observations, so we also have:

t′ = t₂/γ₂

Combine those two equations and solve for t₂

t₂ = t₁(γ₂/γ₁)

t₂= t₁√((1−(V₁/c)²)/(1−(V₂/c)²))

$t_{2}=5.1\sqrt{\frac{1-(0.84)^{2} }{1-(0.9)^{2} } }\\\\t_{2}=6.348min$
