Hi there!

Voltage in a series can be expressed by the following:

V_T = V_1 + V_2

In words, the total voltage is equal to the sum of the individual voltage drops in a SERIES circuit.

We can solve for the total voltage:

V_T = 10 + 10 = \boxed{\text{ D. 20 V}}

A spring with a mass of 5 Kg has natural length 0.5m. A force of 35.6 N is required to maintain it stretched to a length of 0.5m
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

force constant of spring  k = force / extension

= 35.6 / 0.5

k = 71.2 N / m

angular frequency ω of oscillation by spring mass system

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }

where m is mass of the body attached with spring

Putting the values

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{71.2}{5} }

ω = 3.77 radian / s

The oscillation of the mass will be like SHM having amplitude of 0.5 m and angular frequency of 3.77 radian /s . Initial phase will be π / 2

so the equation for displacement from equilibrium position that is middle point can be given as follows

x = .5 sin ( ω t + π / 2 )

= 0.5 cos ω t

= 0.5 cos 3.77 t .

x = 0.5 cos 3.77 t .

The uniform 100-kg beam is freely hinged about its upper end A and is initially at rest in the vertical position with theta = 0.
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

ac = 2.86 m / s²

Explanation:

Image can detail the system to determine the force in the FA to understand the system into the applicated force

m = 100 kg ,  L = 3 m

∑ F = 0 ⇒ Ay - 100 kg + P * cos (45) = 0

Ay = 768.86 N

∑ Mₐ = α * I ₐ

I ₐ = m * L² / 3  ⇒  I ₐ = 100 kg * 4² m / 3

Replacing

P * sin (45) * 3 = α * 100 kg * 4² m / 3  

α = 1.193 rad / s²

ac = α *2    ⇒  ac = 1.193 rad / s²  * 2

ac = 2.86 m / s²

The inner and outer surfaces of a cell membrane carry a negative and positive charge, respectively. Because of these charges, a
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

E = 8.5 * 10^6 V/m

Explanation:

In general we have the following relation between the Electric Field and the Elecric Potential:

\int\limits^2_1 {\vec{E} \cdot\vec{dl}} = V_{2} -V_{1}

Due to the vector nature of the electric filed, we can only know the mean Electric field E across the membrane, and take it out from the integral, that is:

E = (ΔV)/L

Where L is the thickness of the membrane and ΔV is the potential difference.

Therefore:

E = 8.53933*10^6 V/m

rounding to the first tenth:

E = 8.5 * 10^6 V/m

Why is it important to study electromagnetic waves?
labwork [276]
The study of EM is essential to understanding the properties of light, its propagation through tissue, scattering and absorption effects, and changes in the state of polarization. ... Since light travels much faster than sound, detection of the reflected EM radiation is performed with interferometry.
