Answer:

1.5024

Explanation:

Draw a diagram. Put the two cells in series. Now draw 3 resistors. Two of them equal 0.26 ohms each. The third one is the lightbulb which is 12 ohms.

R = 0.26 + 0.26 + 12 = 12.52

The bulb has a voltage of 2.88 volts across it. You can get the current from that.

i = E / R

i = 2.88 / 12 =

i = 0.24 amps.

Now you can get the voltage drop across the two cells.

E = ?

R = 0.26

i = 0.24 amps

E = 0.26 * 0.24

E = 0. 0624

Finally divide the 2.88 by 2 to get 1.44

Each cell has an emf of 1.44 + 0.0624 = 1.5024

I have a question, it concerns hydrostatic buoyancy and Archimedes' law.
saw5 [17]

Answer: the lvl wud remain the same

Explanation: as per Archimedes Principle, the weight of the water displaced by the object is equal to the weight of the object. When the ship initially went into the pool, it wud hv displaced some water. When the anchor is dropped, the level does not change coz the anchor was already in the ship and no extra weight has been added, so the weight of the anchor has already been accounted for in the first place when the ship was first placed in the pool

In a cyclic process, a gas performs 123 J of work on its surroundings per cycle. What amount of heat, if any, transfers into or
Margaret [11]

Answer:

123 J transfer into the gas

Explanation:

Here we know that 123 J work is done by the gas on its surrounding

So here gas is doing work against external forces

Now for cyclic process we know that

\Delta U = 0

so from 1st law of thermodynamics we have

dQ = W + \Delta U

dQ = W

so work done is same as the heat supplied to the system

So correct answer is

123 J transfer into the gas

Which statements describe the relationship between the area and the biodiversity of an ecosystem? Check all that apply. Large ec
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

A large area of a forest will likely have higher biodiversity than a smaller area of the same forest.

A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert.

Explanation:

biodiversity of an ecosystem can be simply explain as the variability that exist in the ecosystem. These are difference that exist between living organism in terms of their habitat, their species and so on. However there exist different relationship between the area of ecosystem and the biodiversity of an ecosystem such that An ecosystem with large area of a forest will likely have higher biodiversity than a smaller area of the same forest.

Another one is that A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert.
