What are two different ways that resistors can be connected together in a circuit? Explain the difference between the two in terms of calculating equivalent resistance.

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

Resistors in circuits can either be connected in series or in parallel.

For a series connected resistors, the same current flows through the resistors while different voltages is passed across them. The formula for calculating effective resistances in a circuit is expressed as

[tex]R_T = R_1+R_2+R_3...+R_n[/tex] where R1, R2, R3 etc. are the resistances connected in series.

The effective resistances for series connected resistors is the sum of the individual resistors

For a parallel connected resistors, different current flows through the resistors while same voltage is passed across them. The formula for calculating effective resistances in a circuit is expressed as:

[tex]\frac{1}{R_T} = \frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2} +\frac{1}{R_3} +...\frac{1}{R_n}[/tex]

The effective resistances for parallel connected resistors is the sum of the reciprocal of the individual resistors

When a car's starter is in use, it draws a large current. The car's lights draw much less current. As a certain car is starting, the current through the battery is 64.2 A and the potential difference across the battery terminals is 9.36 V. When only the car's lights are used, the current through the battery is 1.96 A and the terminal potential difference is 11.3 V.
A. Find the battery's EMF.
B. What is its internal resistance?

Answers

Answer:

EMF = 11.35 V

R = 0.031Ω

Explanation:

To find the battery's EMF and the internal resistance we need to use Ohm's law:

[tex] V = IR [/tex]

Where:

V: is the voltage

I: is the current

R is the resistance

We have:

The current through the battery is 64.2 A and the potential difference across the battery terminals is 9.36 V:

[tex] \epsilon = V + IR [/tex]      

[tex] \epsilon = 9.36 V + 64.2A*R [/tex]   (1)

When only the car's lights are used, the current through the battery is 1.96 A and the terminal potential difference is 11.3 V:

[tex] \epsilon = 11.3 V + 1.96A*R [/tex]   (2)

By solving equation (1) and (2) for R we have:

[tex] 9.36 V + 64.2A*R = 11.3 V + 1.96A*R [/tex]

[tex]R = \frac{1.94 V}{62.24A} = 0.031 \Omega[/tex]

Hence, the internal resistance is 0.031 Ω.

Now, by entering R into equation (1) we can find the battery's EMF:

[tex]\epsilon = 9.36 V + 64.2A*0.031 \Omega[/tex]

[tex] \epsilon = 11.35 V [/tex]

Therefore, the battery's EMF is 11.35 V.

A cart with an unknown mass is at rest on one side of a track. A student must find the mass of the cart by using Newton’s second law. The student attaches a force probe to the cart and pulls it while keeping the force constant. A motion detector rests on the opposite end of the track to record the acceleration of the cart as it is pulled. The student uses the measured force and acceleration values and determines that the cart’s mass is 0.4kg . When placed on a balance, the cart’s mass is found to be 0.5kg . Which of the following could explain the difference in mass?

Answer choices:

A) The track was not level and was tilted slightly downward.

B) The student did not pull the cart with a force parallel to the track.

C) The wheels contain bearings that were rough and caused a significant amount of friction.

D) The motion sensor setting was incorrect. The student set it up so that motion away from the sensor would be the negative direction.

Answers

Answer: The correct answer is A) The track was not level and was tilted slightly downward.

Explanation: This is because of the two values: 0.4 kg and 0.5 kg. I won't go into much detail but due to this difference of mass, we know that the track was not level.

"The track was not level and was tilted slightly downward" could explain the difference in the mass.

Mostly because the university student or learners calculates a mass of just over the spring quantity, the vehicle speed seems to have been higher than there would have had to be.Option B, as well as Option C, are wrong because the acceleration would've been smaller in each of these 2 circumstances, so that computed mass would've been larger.

Thus Option A is appropriate.

What is the direction of the magnetic field if an electron moving in the positive x direction experiences a magnetic force in the positive z direction

Answers

Given :

An electron moving in the positive x direction experiences a magnetic force in the positive z direction.

To Find :

The direction of the magnetic field.

Solution :

We know, force is given by :

[tex]\vec{F}=q(\vec{v}\times \vec{B)}[/tex]

Here, q = -e.

[tex]\vec{F}=(-e)(\vec{v}\times \vec{B)}\\\\\hat{k}=(-e)(\hat{i}\times \vec{B})[/tex]

Now, for above condition to satisfy :

Hence, this is the required solution.

An 10.2-kg stone at the end of a steel (Young's modulus 2.0 x 10^11 N/m2) wire is being whirled in a circle at a constant tangential
speed of 11.6 m/s. The stone is moving on the surface of a frictionless horizontal table. The wire is 3.62 m long and has a radius of
4.10 x 10^-3m. Find the strain in the wire.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

m = Mass of stone = 10.2 kg

v = Tangential velocity = 11.6 m/s

l = Length of wire = 3.62 m

r = Radius of wire = [tex]4.1\times 10^{-3}\ \text{m}[/tex]

A = Area of wire = [tex]\pi r^2[/tex]

Y = Young's modulus of steel = [tex]2\times 10^{11}\ \text{N/m}^2[/tex]

[tex]\varepsillon[/tex] = Strain

The force acting on the stone will be centripetal

[tex]F=\dfrac{mv^2}{l}\\\Rightarrow F=\dfrac{10.2\times 11.6^2}{3.62}\\\Rightarrow F=379.15\ \text{N}[/tex]

Stress is given by

Answer:

Explanation:

There are external forces on the sphere, so momentum is not conserved, but energy is conserved.

Initial KE + Initial RE = Final PE

½ Mv² + ½ Iω² = Mgh

½ Mv² + ½ (⅖ MR²) ω² = Mgh

½ Mv² + ⅕ MR²ω² = Mgh

5v² + 2R²ω² = 10gh

For rolling without slipping, ωR = v.

5v² + 2v² = 10gh

7v² = 10gh

h = 0.7 v² / g

h = 0.7 (3.90 m/s)² / (10 m/s²)

h = 1.0647 m

Use trig to find the distance along the ramp:

sin 19.0° = h / d

d = h / sin 19.0°

d = 3.27 m

The clay sticks to the turntable, so this is an inelastic collision.  Kinetic energy is not conserved, but angular momentum is conserved.

L₀ = L

I₀ ω₀ = I ω

(½ MR²) ω₀ = (½ MR² + mr²) ω

MR²ω₀ = (MR² + 2mr²) ω

ω = MR²ω₀ / (MR² + 2mr²)

ω = (0.190) (0.200)² (4.00) / (0.190 (0.200)² + 2 (0.040) (0.150)²)

ω = 3.23 rad/s

It takes 525 J of work to compress a spring 25 cm. What is the force constant of the spring (in kN/m)?

Answers

Answer:

1.680kN/m

Explanation:

Work done by the spring is expressed as shown:

[tex]W = \frac{1}{2}ke^2[/tex] where:

k is the spring constant

e is the extension

Given

W = 525Joules

extension = 25cm = 0.25m

Substitute into the formula:

[tex]525 = \frac{1}{2}k(0.25)^{2} \\525 = \frac{0.0625k}{2}\\ 525 = 0.03125k\\k = \frac{525}{0.3125}\\k = 1680N/m\\k = 1.680kN/m[/tex]

Hence the force constant of the spring is 1.680kN/m

F1 + F2 + F3 = 0

What is the angle of the third vector with respect to the +x-axis?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]200.38^0[/tex]

Explanation:

Given the forces:

F1 = 8.92 i + 17.37 j

F2 = 8.31 i - 10.97 j

If a third vector is added to them such that they add up to to the null vector as F1 + F2 + F3 = 0

then to get F3:

F3 = -F2-F1

F3 = -(8.31 i - 10.97 j)-(8.92 i + 17.37 j )

F3 = -8.31 i + 10.97 j-8.92 i - 17.37 j

F3 = -8.31i-8.92i+10.97j-17.37j

F3 = -17.23i-6.4j

from the vector:

x = -17.23 and y = -6.4

angle of the third vector with respect to the +x-axis is expressed as:

[tex]\theta = tan^{-1}\frac{y}{x}\\ \theta = tan^{-1}\frac{-6.4}{-17.23}\\\theta = tan^{-1}0.3715\\\theta = 20.38^0[/tex]

Hence the angle the vector makes with the x axis will be [tex]\theta = 180+20.38 = 200.38^0[/tex]

what is the force produced on a body of 30kg mass when a body moving with the velocity of 26km/hr is acceleted to gain the velocity of 54 km/hr in 4 sec​

Answers

Answer:

F = 58.35 [N]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use Newton's second law, which tells us that force is equal to the product of mass by acceleration. But first we must use the following equation of kinematics.

We have to convert speeds from kilometers per hour to meters per second

[tex]\frac{26km}{hr}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}=\frac{7.22m}{s} \\\frac{54km}{hr}*\frac{1000m}{1km}*\frac{1hr}{3600s}=15\frac{m}{s}[/tex]

[tex]v_{f}=v_{o}+(a*t) \\[/tex]

where:

Vf = final velocity = 15 [m/s]

Vi = initial velocity = 7.22 [m/s]

a = acceleration [m/s^2]

t = time = 4 [s]

Note: the positive sign of the above equation is because the car increases its speed

15 = 7.22 + (a*4)

a = 1.945 [m/s^2]

Now we can use the Newton's second law:

F = m*a

F = 30*1.945

F = 58.35 [N]

The Jovian planets formed beyond the Frostline while the terrestrial planets formed in the Frostline in the solar nebular

Explanation:

The Jovian planets are the large planets namely Saturn, Jupiter, Uranus, and Neptune. The terrestrial planets include the Earth, Mercury, Mars, and Venus. According to the nebular theory of solar system formation, the terrestrial planets were formed from silicates and metals. They also had high boiling points which made it possible for them to be located very close to the sun.

The Jovian planets formed beyond the Frostline. This is an area that can support the planets that were made up of icy elements. The large size of the Jovian planets is as a result of the fact that the icy elements were more in number than the metal components of the terrestrial planets.

he peaks are the natural frequencies that coincide with the excitation frequencies and in the second case they are the natural frequencies that make up the wave.

Explanation:

In a resonance experiment, the amplitude of the system is plotted as a function of the frequency, finding maximums for the values ​​where some natural frequency of the system coincides with the excitation frequency.

In a Fourier transform spectrum, the amplitude of the frequencies present is the signal, whereby each peak corresponds to a natural frequency of the system.

From this explanation we can see that in the first case the peaks are the natural frequencies that coincide with the excitation frequencies and in the second case they are the natural frequencies that make up the wave.

An LED lamp powered by a USB-based portable battery has an effective resistance of 500 Ohm. If the battery is rated for 10,000 mAh, then how long can the lamp be powered and what is the total power consumed by the lamp? The operating voltage of a USB powered device is 5V. Assume that the battery is also rated at 5V.

Answers

Answer:

Time = 1000 h

Power = 0.05 W = 50 mW

Explanation:

First we will find the current consumed by the lamp. For this purpose we can use the Ohm's Law. The equation of Ohm's Law is written as follows:

V = IR

I = V/R

where,

I = Current = ?

V = Voltage = 5 V

R = Resistance = 500 Ω

Therefore,

I = 5 V/500 Ω

I = 0.01 A = 10 mA

Now the time duration of the operation f lamp can be found by:

Time = Rating/Current

Time = 10000 mAh/ 10 mA

Time = 1000 h

The power consumption of lamp is given as follows:

Power = IV

Power = (0.01 A)(5 V)

Power = 0.05 W = 50 mW

A cannon ball is shot horizontally off a 37.0 m cliff and lands a distance of 18.5 m
from the base of the cliff. Whall was the initial horizontal velocity of the cannon ball?

Answers

Answer:

vₓ = 6.73 m/s

Explanation:

Assuming no other external influences than gravity, in the horizontal direction (which we make to coincide with the x- axis) , speed is constant, so, applying the definition of average velocity, we can write the following equation:

       [tex]v_{x} = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} (1)[/tex]

Now, in the vertical direction (coincident with the y- axis) , as both movements are independent each other, initial velocity is zero, so we can write the following equation for the vertical displacement:

       [tex]\Delta h = \frac{1}{2} * g * t^{2} (2)[/tex]

where Δh = -37.0 m , g = -9.8 m/s2Solving (2) for t, we get:

       [tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{2*\Delta h}{g} } =\sqrt{\frac{2*37.0m}{9.8m/s2}} = 2.75 s (3)[/tex]    

Taking t₀ = 0, ⇒ Δt = tReplacing (3) in (1), we get:

       [tex]v_{x} = \frac{\Delta x}{\Delta t} = \frac{x}{t} = \frac{18.5m}{2.75s} = 6.73 m/s[/tex]

As the horizontal velocity is constant, the initial horizontal velocity is just the average one, i.e., 6.73 m/s.
