73.9m/s (1dp)

1) list everything that you are given using suvat, where s is distance, u is initial velocity(speed), v is final velocity(speed), a is acceleration and t is time

s = 430m

u = 27 m/s

v = ? (we need to work out)

a = 5.5m/s^2

t = (we are not given this value)

2) use an equation that doesn't involve the time

${v}^{2} = u {}^{2} + 2as$

3) input the values that we have

${v}^{2} = ( {27})^{2} + 2(5.5)(430)$

$v {}^{2} = 5459$

$v = \sqrt{5459} = 73.9$

so the answer is 73.9m/s to 1dp

In a two-source circuit, one source acting alone produces 10 ma through a given branch. the other source acting alone produces 8

pashok25 [27]

Refer to the figure below.
R = resistance.

Case 1:
The voltage source is V₁ and the current is 10 mA. Therefore
V₁ = (10 mA)R

Case 2:
The voltage source is V₂ and the current is 8 mA. Therefore
V₂ = (8 mA)R

Case 3:
The voltage across the resistance is V₁ - V₂. Therefore the current I is given by
V₁ - V₂ = IR
10R - 8R = (I mA)R
2 = I
The current is 2 mA.

Answer: 2 mA

A plane has a takeoff speed of 88.3 m/s and can accelerate at a rate of 3m/s to reach that speed. How long does the plane take t

Mrrafil [7]

v = $\frac{d}{t}$

and

a = $\frac{v}{t}$

We have acceleration and velocity so:

3 = $\frac{v}{t}$

88.3 = $\frac{d}{t}$

In the acceleration equation we can isolate for v and then plug it back into the other equation to solve...

So...

$3t = v$

$88.3 = 3t$

Divide by three and

t = 29.4 s

From laboratory measurements, we know that a particular spectral line formed by hydrogen appears at a wavelength of 486.1 nanome

aksik [14]

Answer:

The star is moving toward us

Explanation:

The wavelength of a distant object changes due to the change in the distance between the observer and the object. This is known as the Doppler effect.

If the wavelength decreases this means that the wavelength in going towards blue which is shorter wavelength. This is known as blue shift. If blue shift occurs then it means that the object is coming closer to the observer.

Hence, the star described here has blue shifted and is moving closer to us.

1) Let's start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the three resistors in parallel, $R_2, R_3, R_4$ :
$\frac{1}{R_{234}}= \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}+ \frac{1}{R_4}= \frac{1}{4.5 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{1.3 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{6.3 \Omega}=1.15 \Omega^{-1}$
From which we find
$R_{234}= \frac{1}{1.15 \Omega^{-1}}=0.9 \Omega$

Now all the resistors are in series, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is the sum of all the resistances:
$R_{eq}=R_1 + R_{234} = 5 \Omega + 0.9 \Omega = 5.9 \Omega$
So, the correct answer is D)

2) Let's start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel:
$\frac{1}{R_{23}} = \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}= \frac{1}{5 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{5 \Omega}= \frac{2}{5 \Omega}$
From which we find
$R_{23} = 2.5 \Omega$

And these are connected in series with a resistor of $10 \Omega$ , so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is
$R_{eq}=10 \Omega + 2.5 \Omega = 12.5 \Omega$

And by using Ohm's law we find the current in the circuit:
$I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}= \frac{9 V}{12.5 \Omega}=0.72 A$
So, the correct answer is C).

3) Let' start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel:
$\frac{1}{R_{23}} = \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}= \frac{1}{5 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{5 \Omega}= \frac{2}{5 \Omega}$
From which we find
$R_{23} = 2.5 \Omega$
Then these are in series with all the other resistors, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is
$R_{eq}=R_1 + R_{23}+R_4 = 5 \Omega + 2.5 \Omega + 5 \Omega =12.5 \Omega$

And by using Ohm's law we find the current flowing in the circuit:
$I= \frac{V}{R_{eq}}= \frac{12 V}{12.5 \Omega}=0.96 A$

And so the voltage read by the voltmeter V1 is the voltage drop across the resistor 2-3:
$V= I R_{23} = (0.96 A)(2.5 \Omega)=2.4 V$
So, the correct answer is D).

4) Again, let's start by calculating the equivalent resistance of the two resistors in parallel:
$\frac{1}{R_{23}} = \frac{1}{R_2}+ \frac{1}{R_3}= \frac{1}{13 \Omega}+ \frac{1}{18 \Omega}=0.13 \Omega^{-1}$
From which we find
$R_{23} = 7.55 \Omega$

Now all the resistors are in series, so the equivalent resistance of the circuit is:
$R_{eq}= R_1 + R_{23}+R_4=8.5 \Omega+7.55 \Omega + 3.2 \Omega = 19.25 \Omega$

The current in the circuit is given by Ohm's law
$I= \frac{V}{R_{Eq}}= \frac{15 V}{19.25 \Omega}=0.78 A$

Now we can compare the voltage drops across the resistors. Resistor 1:
$V_1 = I R_1 = (0.78 A)(8.5 \Omega)=6.63 V$
Resistor 2 and resistor 3 are in parallel, so they have the same voltage drop:
$V_2 = V_3 = V_{23} = I R_{23} = (0.78 A)(7.55 \Omega)=5.89 V$
Resistor 4:
$V_4 = I R_4 = (0.78 A)(3.2 \Omega)=2.50 V$

So, the greatest voltage drop is on resistor 1, so the correct answer is D).

5) the figure shows a circuit with a resistor R and a capacitor C, so it is an example of RC circuit. Therefore, the correct answer is D).

6) The circuit is the same as part 4), so the calculations are exactly the same. Therefore, the power dissipated on resistor 3 is
$P_3 = I_3^2 R_3 = \frac{V_3^2}{R_3}= \frac{(5.89 V)^2}{18 \Omega}=2.0 W$
So, correct answer is B).

7) The circuit is the same as part 4), so we can use exactly the same calculation, and we immediately see that the resistor with lowest voltage drop was R4 (2.50 V), so the correct answer is B) R4.
