Answer:

The first law of thermodynamics is the law of conservation of energy. It states that energy is always conserved. ... To keep a machine moving, the energy applied should stay with the machine without any losses. Because of this fact alone, it is impossible to build perpetual motion machines.

Answer:

R = 9.85 ohm , r = 0.85 ohm

Explanation:

Let the two resistances by r and R.

when they are connected in series:

V = 12 V

i = 1.12 A

The equivalent resistance when they are connected in series is

Rs = r + R

So, By using Ohm's law

V = i Rs

Rs = V / i = 12 / 1.12 = 10.7 ohm

R + r = 10.7 ohm .... (1)

When they are connected in parallel:

V = 12 V

i = 9.39 A

The equivalent resistance when they are connected in parallel

$R_{p}=\frac{R+r}{rR}$

So, By using Ohm's law

V = i Rp

Rp = V / i = 12 / 9.39 = 1.28 ohm

$\frac{R+r}{rR}=1.28$ .... (2)

by substituting the value of R + r from equation (1) in equation (2), we get

r R = 8.36 ..... (3)

$R-r = \sqrt{\left ( R+r \right )^{2}-4rR}$

$R-r = \sqrt{\left ( 10.7 \right )^{2}-4\times 8.36}=9$ ..... (4)

By solvng equation (1) and (4), we get

R = 9.85 ohm , r = 0.85 ohm

Answer:

C) rift valley

Explanation:

A rift valley is a lowland region formed by the interaction of Earth's tectonic plates. This small rift valley has a typical formation—long, narrow, and deep. It was formed by the Thingvellir rift, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are tearing, or rifting, apart over a hotspot on the island of Iceland.
