-- First, we have to decide how to handle the two resistors.
The effective resistance of resistors in series is the sum
of their individual resistances. That is, they act like a single
resistor, whose resistance is the sum of all of them.
So in this question, the 4.0 ohms and the 7.5 ohms act like a
single resistor of 11.5 ohms.
-- The current in the circuit is
(the supply voltage) / (the total resistance)
= (9.0 volts) / (11.5 ohms)
= 0.783... Ampere (rounded)
Air resistance, also called drag, acts upon a falling body by slowing the body down to thr point where it stops accelerating, and it falls at a constant speed, known as the terminal volocity of a falling object. Air resistance depends on the cross sectional area of the object, which is why the effect of air resistance on a large flat surfaced object is much greater than on a small, streamlined object.
Answer: they could get a piece of the coral and run tests on it
Explanation:
By definition of average acceleration,
<em>a</em> = (20 m/s - 33.1 m/s) / (4.7 s) ≈ -2.78 m/s²
Vertically, the car is in equilibrium, so the net force is equal to the friction force in the direction opposite the car's motion:
∑ <em>F</em> = (1502.7 kg) (-2.78 m/s²) ≈ -4188.38 N ≈ -4200 N
If you just want the magnitude, drop the negative sign.
Drop "moves" from the list for a moment.
You can also drop "stops moving", because that's included in "changes speed"
(from something to zero).
When an object changes speed or changes direction, that's called "acceleration".
I dropped the first one from the list, because an object can be moving,
and as long as it's speed is constant and it's moving in a straight line,
there's no acceleration.
I think you meant to say "starts moving". That's a change of speed (from zero
to something), so it's also acceleration.
