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

anastassius [24]

Answer: 3.48g

Explanation:

here, we will be using conservation of momentum to solve the problem. i.e the total momentum remains unchanged, unless an external force acts on the system. We'll in thus question, there is no external force acting in the system.

Remember, momentum = mass * velocity, then

mass of blood * velocity of blood = combined mass of subject and pallet * velocity of subject and pallet

Velocity of blood = 56.5cm = 0.565m

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54kg * (0.000063/0.160)

mass of blood * 0.565 = 54 * 0.00039375

mass of blood * 0.565 = 0.001969

mass of blood = 0.00348kg

Thus, the mass of blood that leaves the heart is 3.48g

You're carrying a 3.2-m-long, 24kg pole to a construction site when you decide to stop for a rest. You place one end of the pole
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Tension of 132N

Explanation:

We need to apply Summatory of Force to find the tension in the hand.

We define te tensión in the hand as F_2 and the Tension in fence post as F_1, then

\sum F = 24(9.8)

F_1 + F_2= 24(9.8)

We apply summatory of moments then

F_2*1.25 = F_1*1.6

Where the Force 2 is 1.25m from the center of summatory,

We can note that,

1.6 m - 0.35m=1.25m

We have two equation and two incognites, then replacing (1) in (2)

1.6(235.2 -F_2) = 1.25F_2

376.32 = F2(1.6+1.25)

F_2= \frac{376.32}{2.85}

F_2 =132 N

Consider two diffraction gratings. One grating has 3000 lines per cm, and the other one has 6000 lines per cm. Both gratings are
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

<em>The 6000 lines per cm grating, will produces the greater dispersion .</em>

Explanation:

A diffraction grating is an optical component with a periodic (usually one  that has ridges or rulings on their surface rather than dark lines) structure that splits and diffracts light into several beams travelling in different directions.

The directions of the light beam produced from a diffraction grating depend on the spacing of the grating, and also on the wavelength of the light.

For a plane diffraction grating, the angular positions of principle maxima is given by

(a + b) sin ∅n = nλ

where

a+b is the distance between two consecutive slits

n is the order of principal maxima

λ is the wavelength of the light

From the equation, we can see that without sin ∅ exceeding 1, increasing the number of lines per cm will lead to a decrease between the spacing between consecutive slits.

In this case, light of the same wavelength is used. If λ and n is held constant, then we'll see that reducing the distance between two consecutive slits (a + b) will lead to an increase in the angle of dispersion sin ∅. So long as the limit of sin ∅ not greater that one is maintained.

A 0.540-kg bucket rests on a scale. Into this bucket you pour sand at the constant rate of 56.0 g/s. If the sand lands in the bu
romanna [79]

Answer:

a) 12.8212 N

b) 12.642 N

Explanation:

Mass of bucket = m = 0.54 kg

Rate of filling with sand  = 56.0 g/ sec = 0.056 kg/s

Speed of sand = 3.2 m/s

g= 9.8 m/sec2

<u>Condition (a);</u>

Mass of sand = Ms = 0.75 kg

So total mass becomes = bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

== > total weight = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N

Now impact of sand = rate of filling × velocity = 0.056 × 3.2 =  0.1792 kg. m /sec2=0.1792 N

Scale reading is sum of impact of sand and weight force ;

i-e

scale reading = 12.642 N+0.1792 N = 12.8212 N

<u>Codition (b);</u>

bucket mass + sand mass = 0.54 +0.75=1.29 kg

==>weight = mg = 1.29 × 9.8 = 12.642 N (readily calculated above as well)
