In series combination, resister are connected end to end and current has a single path through the circuit but the potential difference varies across each resistor. Thus we can write as,
V = V1 + V2 + V3
according to Ohm's law V = IR So,
V1 = I R1, V2 = I R2, V3 = I R3
V = I R1 + I R2 + I R3
V = I(R1+R2+R3)
V =IRe
All the individual resistances become equal to the equivalent resistance.
or Re = R1 + R2 + R3......Rn
In parallel combination, each resistor'sone is connected to the positive terminal while the other end is connected to a negative terminal. The potential difference across each resistance is the same and the current passing through them is different.
V = V1 =V2=V3
I = I1+ I2+I3
Current throught each resistor will be:
I1= V/R1 , I2 = V/R2 = I3 = V/R3
I = V (1/R1+ 1/R2+1/R3)
In case of equivalent resistance I=V/Re
V/Re = V (1/R1+ 1/R2+1/R3)
So the equivalnet resistance is the sum of all resistances
1/Re = 1/R1+ 1/R2+1/R3

A box of mass 20kg is pulled up an inclined plane by a force of 285N. Given that the value of the incline angle is 30 degrees an
docker41 [41]

Given :

Mass of box , m = 250 kg.

Force applied , F = 285 N.

The value of the incline angle is 30°.

the coefficient of dynamic friction is \mu=0.72 .

To Find :

The speed with which the box is moving with, assuming it takes 4 seconds to reach the top of the incline.

Solution :

Net force applied in box is :

F=285 - mgsin\ \theta - \mu mg cos \ \theta\\ \\F=285-mg( sin \ \theta - \mu cos\ \theta)\\\\F=285 - 20\times 10( \dfrac{1}{2}+0.72\times \dfrac{\sqrt{3}}{2})\\\\F=60.29\ N

Acceleration , a=\dfrac{F}{m}=\dfrac{60.29}{20}=3.01\ m/s^2.

By equation of motion :

v=u+at\\\\v=0+3.01\times 4\\\\v=12.04\ m/s

Therefore, the speed of box is 12.04 m/s.

Hence, this is the required solution.

A wire 40cm long and of diameter 0.60mm has a resistance of 1.5 ohm what is the resistivity of the material of which it is made
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

The resistivity of the wire is 1.05\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m

Explanation:

We have,

Length of a wire is 40 cm or 0.4 m

Diameter of a wire is 0.60 mm

Radius is 0.3 mm or 0.0003 m

Resistance of a wire is 1.5 ohm

Now we need to find the resistivity of the material of which it is made. The resistance of a wire in terms of its resistance, length and area is given by :

R=\rho \dfrac{l}{A}

\rho = resistivity

\rho=R \dfrac{\pi r^2}{l}\\\\\rho=1.5\times  \dfrac{3.14\times (0.0003 )^2}{0.4}\\\\\rho=1.05\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m

So, the resistivity of the wire is 1.05\times 10^{-6}\ \Omega-m.

Three people pull simultaneously on a stubborn donkey. Jack pulls directly ahead of the donkey with a force of 63.9 N63.9 N , Ji
Greeley [361]

Answer:

a) F = (137.4 i ^ + 185 j ^) N

b)    F = 230.2 N  ,  θ = 53.5º

Explanation:

In this exercise we ask to find the net force, for which we will define a coordinate system fix the donkey and use trigonometry to decompose the forces

Jack       F₁ₓ = 63.9 N

Jill          F₂ = 79.1 N with direction 45º to the left

              cos (180 -45) = F₂ₓ / F₂

              sin 135 = F_{2y} / F₂

              F₂ₓ = F₂ cos 135

              F_{2y} = F₂ sin 135

              F₂ₓ = 79.1 cos 135 = -55.9 N

              F_{2y} = 79.1 sin 135 = 55.9 N

Jane      F₃ = 183 N direction 45th to the right

             cos 45 = F₃ₓ / F3

             sin 45 = F_{3y} / F3

             F₃ₓ = F₃ cos 45 = 183 cos 45

             F_{₃y} = F₃ sin 45 = 183 sin 45

             F₃ₓ = 129.4 N

             F_{3y} = 129.4 N

we add each component of the force

       Fₓ = F₁ₓ + F₂ₓ + F₃ₓ

       Fₓ = 63.9 + (-55.9) + 129.4

       Fₓ = 137.4 N

       F_{y} = F_{2y} + F_{3y}

       F_{2y} = 55.9 + 129.4

       F_{2y} = 185.3 N

we can give the result of the forms

 

a) F = (137.4 i ^ + 185 j ^) N

b) in the form of module and angle

         F = RA (Fₓ² + F_{y}²)

         F = Ra (137² + 185²)

         F = 230.2 N

         tan θ = F_{y} / Fₓ

         θ = tan⁻¹ F_{y} / Fₓ

        θ = tan⁻¹ (185/137)

        θ = 53.5º

Two loudspeakers emit sound waves along the x-axis. A listener in front of both speakers hears a maximum sound intensity when sp
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

frequency of the sound = f = 1,030.3 Hz

phase difference = Φ = 229.09°

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data:

Xini = 0.540m

Xfin = 0.870m

v = 340m/s

Step 2: frequency of the sound (f)

f = v / λ

λ = Xfin - Xini = 0.870 - 0.540 = 0.33

f = 340 / 0.33

f = 1,030.3 Hz

Step 3: phase difference

phase difference = Φ

Φ = (2π/λ)*(Xini - λ) = (2π/0.33)* (0.540-0.33) = 19.04*0.21 = 3.9984

Φ = 3.9984 rad * (360°/2π rad)

Φ = 229.09°

Hope this helps!
