Answer:

The current is 1 A

Explanation:

Current in a Series Connection

When two or more elements are connected in series, all of them have the same current, and the sum of their individual voltages is the total voltage applied to the circuit.

According to Ohm's law:

V=R.I

Where V is the voltage, R is the resistance and I is the current of a circuit.

We have a voltage of V=1.5 V + 1.5 V = 3 V and a resistance of R=3 ohms.

We can calculate the current by solving for I:

$\displaystyle I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{3}{3}=1\ A$

The current is 1 A

A golf ball is hit horizontally off the edge of a 30 m high cliff and lands a distance of 25 m from the edge of the cliff. What

Ratling [72]

Answer:

V₀y = 0 m/s

t = 2.47 s

V₀ₓ = 61.86 m/s

Vₓ = 61.86 m/s

Explanation:

Since, the ball is hit horizontally, there is no vertical component of velocity at initial point. So, the initial vertical velocity (V₀y) will beL

V₀y = 0 m/s

For the initial vertical velocity of golf ball we consider the vertical motion and apply 2nd equation of motion:

Y = V₀y*t + (0.5)gt²

where,

Y = Height = 30 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = time to hit the ground = ?

Therefore,

30 m = (0 m/s)(t) + (0.5)(9.8 m/s²)t²

t² = 30 m/4.9 m/s²

t = √6.122 s²

t = 2.47 s

For initial vertical velocity we analyze the horizontal motion of the ball. We neglect the frictional effects in horizontal motion thus the speed remains uniform. Hence,

V₀ₓ = Xt

where,

V₀ₓ = Initial vertical Velocity = ?

X = Horizontal Distance = 25 m

Therefore,

V₀ₓ = (25 m)(2.47 s)

V₀ₓ = 61.86 m/s

Due, to uniform motion in horizontal direction:

Final Vertical Velocity = Vₓ = V₀ₓ

Vₓ = 61.86 m/s

A video game includes an asteroid that is programmed to move in a straight line across a 17-inch monitor according to the equati

Ainat [17]

Answer:

The asteroid's acceleration at this point is $2.71\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

The equation that governs the trajectory of asteroid is given by :

$x=6.5t-2.3t^3$

The velocity of asteroid is given by :

$v=\dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\v=\dfrac{d(6.5t-2.3t^3)}{dt}\\\\v=6.5-6.9t^2$

At some point during the trip across the screen, the asteroid is at rest. It means, v = 0

So,

$6.5-6.9t^2=0\\\\t=0.971\ s$

Acceleration,

$a=\dfrac{dv}{dt}\\\\a=\dfrac{d(6.5-6.9t^2)}{dt}\\\\a=-13.8t$

Put t = 0.971 s

$a=-13.8\times 0.197\\\\a=-2.71\ m/s^2$

So, the asteroid's acceleration at this point is $2.71\ m/s^2$ and it is decelerating.

°C = (5/9) · (°F-32)

The "wet" thermometer is the upper one ... you can see the wet cloth wrapped around the bulb at the end. It's reading 70° F.

°C = (5/9) · (38) = 21.1° C

The "dry" thermometer is the lower one. It's reading 80° F.

°C = (5/9) · (48) = 26.7° C

So it looks like choice-A is your answer.
