Answer:

28.6 ohm

Explanation:

there is a 3rd resistor in series. voltage drop across the resistors will be equal to 60v

7*.2+7*.2 +.2x = 60

2.8+.2x = 60

.2x = 57.2

x = 28.6

How are all paths that have a displacement of zero similar?

igomit [66]

<span>Displacement is identified as the net movement of a thing with detail to its initial location. One may journey out of his city and come back. Notwithstanding having enclosed many miles, he will have a displacement of 0. This is true for all trails that have zero displacement that they all go back to their initial position.</span>

A 160-N child sits on a light swing and is pulled back and held with a horizontal force of 100 N. The magnitude of the tension f

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

T = 190 N

Explanation:

When child is sitting on the swing then the weight of the child is vertically downwards

So it is

$F_g = 160 N$

now a force of 100 N is acting on the swing in horizontal direction

so it is given as

$F_x = 100 N$

now the net force is resultant force due to gravity and horizontal force

so it is given as

$T = \sqrt{F_x^2 + F_g^2}$

$T = \sqrt{100^2 + 160^2}$

$T = 190 N$

You just calculated that the heat of fusion for chloromethane is 6400 J/mol. The heat of fusion for hydrogen is 120 J/mol. Which

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Chloromethane experiences dipole-dipole interactions.

Chloromethane has a higher molar mass than hydrogen.

Explanation:

The molar mass is directly proportional to the heat of fusion, since the heavier the molecules the more energy they need to separate. Intermolecular forces are also directly proportional to the heat of fusion, because the greater the interaction they experience, the more energy they require to separate. The dipole-dipole interactions experienced by chloromethane are stronger than the interactions that take place in hydrogen.

When a battery, a resistor, a switch, and an inductor form a circuit and the switch is closed, the inductor acts to oppose the c

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:Time constant gets doubled

Explanation:

Given

L-R circuit is given and suppose R and L is the resistance and inductance of the circuit then current is given by

$i=i_0\left [ 1-e^{-\frac{t}{\tau }}\right ]$

where $i_0$ is maximum current

i=current at any time

$\tau =\frac{L}{R}=time\ constant$

$\tau '=\frac{2L}{R}=2\tau$

thus if inductance is doubled then time constant also gets doubled or twice to its original value.
