Hello!

Recall for resistors in parallel:
\frac{1}{R_t} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + ... + \frac{1}{R_n}

We can begin by calculating the total resistance:
\frac{1}{R_t} = \frac{1}{10} +  \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{10}}\\\\\frac{1}{R_t} = \frac{3}{10}\\\\R_t = \frac{10}{3} = \boxed{3.333 \Omega}

Now, we can calculate the current using Ohm's Law:
V = iR\\\\i = \frac{V}{R}

V = Voltage of battery (V)
i = Current (A)

R = Resistance (Ω)

Plug in the given voltage and the total resistance we solved for.

i = \frac{15}{3.33} = \boxed{4.5 A}

Answer:

1)  ΔE = -800 J, 2) ΔE = 200 J, 3)  ΔE = -200 J, 4) ΔE = 800 J

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use the first law of thermodynamics

             

          ΔE = Q + W

Where we will apply this expression to several cases

1) output Q = 500 J and does work of W = 300 J.

The two processes involve an energy output

         ΔE = - 500 - 300

         ΔE = -800 J

Therefore, the internal energy of the gas decreases by this amount,

2) enter Q = 500J and do work of W = 300 J

         Positive heat is added and does negative work

         ΔE = 500 - 300

         ΔE = 200 J

3) they leave Q = 500 J and do (work on the gas) W = 300J

negative heat and positive work come out

          ΔE = -500 + 300

          ΔE = -200 J

4) heat enters Q = 500 J, work on gas W = 300 J

both positive

         ΔE = 500 + 300

         ΔE = 800 J

____________ was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the u.S. Devoted to the goal of landing a man on the moon
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

The Apollo program or Project Apollo was a series of human spaceflight missions undertaken by the u.S. Devoted to the goal of landing a man on the moon and returning him to earth safely.

Explanation:

Project Apollo or Apollo program was the spaceflight program carried out by the United States of America during the years 1961-1972 using the Apollo spacecraft. This project's main goal was to land a man on the Moon and to safely return him to Earth. This goal was accomplished with the Apollo 11 moon-landing mission on July 20, 1969, when an Apollo Lunar Module (LM) landed on the Moon's surface and the astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin walked on the lunar surface while Michael Collins stayed in the command and service module (CSM) in the lunar orbit. On July 24, all three astronauts landed safely on Earth.

This project included three unmanned test flights (Apollo 4 through Apollo 6) and eleven manned flights (Apollo 7 through Apollo 17). All these spaceflight missions were carried out by NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) and all were launched from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida.
