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

insens350 [35]

<u>Statement</u><u>:</u>

Jane does 5 joules of work when she closes her bedroom window. She applies a force of 6 newtons to do the job.

<u>To </u><u>find </u><u>out:</u>

The displacement of the window when she pulled it.

<u>Solution</u><u>:</u>

  • Work done (W) = 5 J
  • Force (F) = 6 N
  • Let the displacement of the window be s.
  • We know, the formula of work done, i.e., W = Fs
  • Putting the values in the above formula, we get
  • 5 J = 6 N × s
  • or, s = (5 ÷ 6) m
  • or, s = 0.83 m

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

She pulls the window by 0.83 m.

Hope you could understand.

If you have any query, feel free to ask.

Charges that are different each other​
adell [148]

Answer:

Like charges repel each other; unlike charges attract. Thus, two negative charges repel one another, while a positive charge attracts a negative charge. The attraction or repulsion acts along the line between the two charges. The size of the force varies inversely as the square of the distance between the two charges.

An 80-kg quarterback jumps straight up in the air right before throwing a 0.43-kg football horizontally at 15 m/s . how fast wil
Mamont248 [21]
Applying conservation of momentum
Quarterback mass = 80 kg
ball mass = 0.43 kg
Initially both together but horizontal velocity of both 0
initial momentum = 0
Final momentum = 15*0.43 - 80v
initial = final (law of conservation of momentum)
6.45 = 80v
v = 0.08 m/s
