Three resistors of resistances, R1=10Ω, R2=5Ω, R3=20Ω are connected in a circuit in such way that same amount of current flows t

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer

Explanation:

As the three resistors are connected in series, the expression to be used for the

calculation of RT equivalent resistance

is:

RT = R1 + R2 + R3

We replace the data of the statement in the previous expression and it remains:

5 10 15 RT + R1 + R2 + R3 + +

We perform the mathematical operations that lead us to the result we are looking for:

RT - 30Ω

A spring stretches 0.2 cm per newton of applied force. An object is suspended from the spring and a deflection of 3 cm is observ

siniylev [52]

Answer:

$m=1.53kg$

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Hooke's Law:

$F=k*\Delta x$ (1)

F is the Force needed to expand or compress the spring by a distance Δx.

The spring stretches 0.2cm per Newton, in other words:

1N=k*0.2cm ⇒ k=1N/0.2cm=5N/cm

The force applied is due to the weight

$F=mg$

We replace in (1):

$mg=k*\Delta x$

We solve the equation for m:

$m=k*\Delta x/g=5*3/9.81=1.53kg$

A ball is shot at an angle of 45 degrees into the air with initial velocity of 46 ft/sec. Assuming no air resistance, how high d

mestny [16]

Answer:

5.02 m

Explanation:

Applying the formula of maximum height of a projectile,

H = U²sin²Ф/2g...................... Equation 1

Where H = maximum height, U = initial velocity, Ф = angle, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: U = 46 ft/sec = 14.021 m/s, Ф = 45°

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute these values into equation 1

H = (14.021)²sin²45/(2×9.8)

H = 196.5884×0.5/19.6

H = 5.02 m.

Hence the ball goes 5.02 m high

Two cylindrical resistors are made from the same material. The shorter one has length L, diameter D, and resistance R1. The long

nordsb [41]

Answer:

the resistance of the longer one is twice as big as the resistance of the shorter one.

Explanation:

Given that :

For the shorter cylindrical resistor

Length = L

Diameter = D

Resistance = R1

For the longer cylindrical resistor

Length = 8L

Diameter = 4D

Resistance = R2

So;

We all know that the resistance of a given material can be determined by using the formula :

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{A}$

where;

A = πr²

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi r ^2}$

For the shorter cylindrical resistor ; we have:

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi r ^2}$

since 2 r = D

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi (\frac{2}{2 \ r}) ^2}$

$R = \dfrac{ 4 \rho L }{\pi \ D ^2}$

For the longer cylindrical resistor ; we have:

$R = \dfrac{\rho L }{\pi r ^2}$

since 2 r = D

$R = \dfrac{ \rho (8 ) L }{\pi (\frac{2}{2 \ r}) ^2}$

$R = \dfrac{32\rho L }{\pi \ (4 D) ^2}$

$R = \dfrac{2\rho L }{\pi \ (D) ^2}$

Sp;we can equate the shorter cylindrical resistor to the longer cylindrical resistor as shown below :

$\dfrac{R_s}{R_L} = \dfrac{ \dfrac{ 4 \rho L }{\pi \ D ^2}}{ \dfrac{2\rho L }{\pi \ (D) ^2}}$

$\dfrac{R_s}{R_L} ={ \dfrac{ 4 \rho L }{\pi \ D ^2}}* { \dfrac {\pi \ (D) ^2} {2\rho L}}$

$\dfrac{R_s}{R_L} =2$

${R_s}=2{R_L}$

Thus; the resistance of the longer one is twice as big as the resistance of the shorter one.
