Three identical resistors are connected in parallel to a battery. If the current of 12. A flows from the battery, how much curre
Doss [256]

Answer:

4 A

Explanation:

We are given that

R_1=R_2=R_3=4\Omega

I=12 A

We have to find the current flowing through each resistor.

We know that in parallel combination current flowing through different resistors are different and potential difference across each resistor is same.

Formula :

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

Using the formula

\frac{1}{R}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{3}{4}

R=\frac{4}{3}\Omega

V=IR

Substitute the values

V=12\times \frac{4}{3}=16 V

I_1=\frac{V}{R_1}=\frac{16}{4}=4 A

I_1=I_2=I_3=4 A

Hence, current flows through any one of the resistors is 4 A.

A diver leaves the end of a 4.0 m high diving board and strikes the water 1.3s later, 3.0m beyond the end of the board. Consider
shutvik [7]

Answer:

4.0 m/s

Explanation:

The motion of the diver is the motion of a projectile: so we need to find the horizontal and the vertical component of the initial velocity.

Let's consider the horizontal motion first. This motion occurs with constant speed, so the distance covered in a time t is

d=v_x t

where here we have

d = 3.0 m is the horizontal distance covered

vx is the horizontal velocity

t = 1.3 s is the duration of the fall

Solving for vx,

v_x = \frac{d}{t}=\frac{3.0 m}{1.3 s}=2.3 m/s

Now let's consider the vertical motion: this is an accelerated motion with constant acceleration g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground. The vertical position at time t is given by

y(t) = h + v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2

where

h = 4.0 m is the initial height

vy is the initial vertical velocity

We know that at t = 1.3 s, the vertical position is zero: y = 0. Substituting these numbers, we can find vy

0=h+v_y t - \frac{1}{2}gt^2\\v_y = \frac{0.5gt^2-h}{t}=\frac{0.5(9.8 m/s^2)(1.3 s)^2-4.0 m}{1.3 s}=3.3 m/s

So now we can find the magnitude of the initial velocity:

v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}=\sqrt{(2.3 m/s)^2+(3.3 m/s)^2}=4.0 m/s
