Find the equivalent resistance, current, and voltage across each resistor when the specified resistors are connected across a 20

timama [110]

Answer:

Explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

"Find the equivalent resistance, the current supplied by the battery and the current through each resistor when the specified resistors are connected across a 20-V battery. Part (a) uses two resistors with resistance values that can be set with the animation sliders, and you can use the animation to verify your calculation. In part (b), three resistors are specified. (a) Two resistors are connected in series across a 20-V battery. Let R1 = 1 Ω and R2 = 2 Ω. Rea = (b) Add a third resistor to the circuit in series. Let R1 = 1 Ω, R2 = 2 Ω, and R3 = 3 Ω"

Using ohms law formula to solve the problem

E = IRt

E is the supply voltage

I is the total current

Rt is the total equivalent resistant.

a) Given two resistances

R1 = 1ohms and R2 = 2ohms

If the resistors are Connected in series across a 20V supply voltage,

-Equivalent resistance = R1+R2

= 1ohms + 2ohms

= 3ohms

- In a series connected circuit, same current flows through the resistors.

Using the formula E = IRt

I = E/Rt

I = 20/3

I = 6.67A

The current in both resistors is 6.67A

- Different voltage flows across a series connected circuit.

Using the formula V = IR

V is the voltage across each resistor

I is the current in each resistor

For 1ohms resistor,

V = 6.67×1

V = 6.67Volts

For 2ohms resistor

V = 6.67×2

V = 13.34Volts

b) If the resistors are three

R1 = 1ohms, R2 = 2ohms R3 = 3ohms

- Total equivalent resistance = 1+2+3

= 6ohms

- Current in each resistor I = E/Rt

I = 20/6

I = 3.33A

Since the same current flows through the resistors, the current across each of them is 3.33A

- Voltage across them is calculated as shown:

V = IR

For 1ohm resistor

V = 3.33×1

V = 3.33volts

For 2ohms resistor

V = 3.33×2

V = 6.66volts

For 3ohms resistor

V = 3.33×3

V = 9.99volts

Apply the law of conservation of energy and describe the energy transformations that occur as you coast down a long hill on a bi

m_a_m_a [10]

As you coast down a long hill on your bicycle, potential energy from your height is converted to kinetic energy as you and your bike are pulled downward by gravity along the slope of the hill. While there is air resistance and friction slowing you down by a little bit, your speed increases gradually until you apply the brakes, causing enough friction to slow yourself and the bike to a stop at the bottom.

A roller coaster will have higher kinetic energy at the lower hill because it will have already been moving as opposed to the initial hill. But I'm not one hundred percent certain. You can always google this stuff, but I do know for sure that at the first hill, the roller coaster will have higher potential energy.
Hope this helps!

Write equations for both the electric and magnetic fields for an electromagnetic wave in the red part of the visible spectrum th

NeTakaya

Answer:

Explanation:

General equation of the electromagnetic wave:

$E(x, t)= E_0sin[\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}(x-ct)+\phi ]$

where

$\phi =$ Phase angle, 0

c = speed of the electromagnetic wave, 3 × 10⁸

$\lambda =$ wavelength of electromagnetic wave, 698 × 10⁻⁹m

E₀ = 3.5V/m

Electric field equation

$E(x, t)= 3.5sin[\frac{2\pi}{6.98\times10^{-7}}(x-3\times 10^8t)]\\\\E(x, t)= 3.5sin[{9 \times 10^6}(x-3\times 10^8t)]\\\\E(x, t)= 3.5sin[{9 \times 10^6x-2.7\times 10^{15}t)]$

Magnetic field Equation

$B(x, t)= B_0sin[\frac{2\pi}{\lambda}(x-ct)+\phi ]$

Where B₀= E₀/c

$B_0 = \frac{E_0}{c} = \frac{3.5}{3\times10^8}=1.2 \times 10^{-8}T$

$B(x, t)= 1.2\times10^{-8}sin[\frac{2\pi}{6.98\times10^{-7}}(x-3\times 10^8t)]\\\\B(x, t)= 1.2\times10^{-8}sin[{9 \times 10^6}(x-3\times 10^8t)]\\\\B(x, t)= 1.2\times10^{-8}sin[{9 \times 10^6x-2.7\times 10^{15}t)]$
