I don't know why the answer is D , because I can't see the list of choices.

The only way to get 8.0 Amps is by making a serious mistake.

The current in the second picture is 4.0 Amps.

If the resistors are identical, then the effective resistance of

two resistors in parallel is 1/2 the resistance of each one.

The resistance in the second picture is 1/2 the resistance

in the first picture.

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

Cutting the resistance in half causes the current to double.

If the current was 2.0 Amps in the first picture, it's 4.0 Amps

in the second picture.

A car travels from point A to point B, moving in the same direction but with a non-constant speed. The first half of the distanc

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

From A to B

distance traveled with velocity $v_1$ in time $t_1$

$\frac{d}{2}=v_1t_1----1$

from B to C

distance traveled is 0.5 d with $v_2$ and $v_3$ velocity for half-half time

$\frac{d}{2}=\frac{v_2t_2}{2}+\frac{v_3t_3}{2}----2$

divide 1 and 2 we get

$\frac{1}{1}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{v_2t_2+v_3t_3}$

$\frac{t_1}{t_2}=\frac{v_2+v_3}{2v_1}$

Now average velocity is given by

$v_{avg}=\frac{d}{t_1+t_2}$

taking $t_1$ common

$v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1t_1}{t_1(1+\frac{t_2}{t_1})}$

$v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1}{1+\frac{2v_1}{v_2+v_3}}$

$v_{avg}=\frac{2v_1(v_2+v_3)}{2v_1+v_2+v_3}$
