Answer:

a. 0.2 A

Explanation:

Given;

voltage of the battery, V = 12 V

three resistance connected in series, R₁ = 15 Ω, R₂ = 21 Ω,   R₃ = 24Ω

The equivalent resistance for series connection is calculated as;

Rt = R₁ + R₂ +  R₃

Rt = 15Ω  +  21Ω   +   24Ω

Rt = 60 Ω

Apply Ohm's law to calculate the current n the circuit;

V = IRt

I = V/Rt

I = 12/60

I = 0.2 A

Therefore, the current in the circuit is 0.2 A

Calculate the energy (in eV/atom) for vacancy formation in some metal, M, given that the equilibrium number of vacancies at 296o
Schach [20]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       Temperature of metal = 296^{o}C = (296 + 273) K

                                            = 569 K

     Density of the metal = 8.85 g/cm^{3} = 8.85 \times 10^{-6} g/m^{3}      (as 1 cm^{3} = 10^{-6} m^{3})

     Atomic mass = 51.40 g/mol

    Vacancies = 9.19 \times 10^{23} m^{-3}

Formula to calculate the number of atomic sites is as follows.

           n = \frac{\rho \times N_{A}}{\text{atomic weight}}

              = \frac{8.85 \times 10^{-6} \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}}{51.40 g/mol}

              = 1.036 \times 10^{17} atom/m^{3}

Now, we will calculate the energy as follows.

                E = -KT \times ln (\frac{\text{no. of vacancies}}{\text{no. of atomic sites}})

where,    K = 8.62 \times 10^{-5}

         E = -8.62 \times 10^{-5} \times 569 K \times ln (\frac{9.19 \times 10^{23}}{1.036 \times 10^{17} atom/m^{3}})

               = 78.46 eV/atom

Therefore, we can conclude that energy (in eV/atom) for vacancy formation in given metal, M, is 78.46 eV/atom.

Answer:

Temperatures on Earth are ideal for water to exist in solid, liquid, and gaseous forms.

Earth's gravity holds the water vapor in Earth's atmosphere close to its surface.

For the answer to the question above, 
 the distance from i to j is 5 parts 
(2 parts from i to k and 3 parts from k to j) 

The y distance from i to j is 
10 - 2 = 8 

Each part is 8/5 = 1.6 
Therefore the distance between the 2 parts from i to k is 3.2 

From the y coordinate of I which is 2 plus the 3.2 to point k 
2 + 3.2 = 5.2 

Answer y =5.2 

Now just convert that to fraction and that will be the answer
