Because of the definition of gravity, point-mass, and centre of mass, the centre of mass will always be the point at which gravitational forces of the surrounding mass on any opposite sides are exactly equal

A diagram of a closed circuit with a power source on the left labeled 120 V. There are 3 resistors in parallel, separate paths,
Zina [86]

1) The equivalent resistance is 2.73\Omega

2) The voltage in the circuit is 120 V

3) The total current in the circuit is 44.0 A

Explanation:

1)

Resistors are said to be in parallel when they have the same potential difference at their terminals.

The formula to calculate the equivalent resistance for three resistors in parallel is:

\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{R_1}+\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}

where R_1, R_2, R_3 are the resistances of the three resistors.

In this problem, the resistance of each resistor is:

R_1 = 5.0 \Omega

R_2 = 10.0 \Omega

R_3 = 15.0 \Omega

Substituting,

\frac{1}{R_T}=\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{10}+\frac{1}{15}=\frac{11}{30}

So the equivalent resistance is

R_T = \frac{30}{11}=2.73 \Omega

2)

In this problem we are told that the three resistors are connected in parallel. This means that their terminals are connected to the same point of the circuit: therefore, this means that they also have the same potential difference across them.

Therefore, the voltage in each branch containing each resistor is the same, and it is equal to the voltage of the battery, which is

V=120 V

So, the voltage in the circuit is 120 V.

3)

The total current in the circuit can be found by using Ohm's law:

V=RI

where

V is the voltage

R is the equivalent resistance of the circuit

I is the current

In this circuit, we have:

V = 120 V

R=2.73\Omega

Re-arranging the equation for I, we find the current:

I=\frac{V}{R}=\frac{120}{2.73}=44.0 A

A car start from rest and move 6km due east and 8km due south. Calculate the distance covered
Kruka [31]

for this you use the pythagoreom theorem

6^2 + 8^2

36 + 64 = 100

the square root of 100 is 10

10 is the answer

Beats are the difference in (a) Frequency (b) Amplitude (c) Intensity (d) None
sasho [114]

Answer:

Beats are the difference in frequency.

(a) is correct option.

Explanation:

Beat :

Beat is the difference of the frequency of two waves.

The difference in frequency is equal to the number of beat per second.

Amplitude :

Amplitude of the wave is the maximum displacement.

Frequency :

Frequency is the number oscillations of wave in per second.

Intensity :

Intensity is the power per unit area.

Hence, Beats are the difference in frequency.
