Answer:b

Explanation:

Given

Woman earn 50% more than her husband

Total sum of their money is $=\$ 2500$

Suppose man earns $\$ P$

so women earns $P+0.5 P=P(1+0.5)=1.5 P$

Sum of their money is

$P+1.5 P=2500$

$P=\$ 1000$

Women earns $=1.5\times 1000=\$ 1500$

Two resistors of resistances R1 and R2, with R2>R1, are connected to a voltage source with voltage V0. When the resistors are

ehidna [41]

Answer

The Value of r = 0.127

Explanation:

The mathematical representation of the two resistors connected in series is

$R_T = R_1 +R_2$

And from Ohm law

$I_s =\frac{ V}{R_T}$

$I_s = \frac{V_0}{R_1 +R_2} ---(1)$

The mathematical representation of the two resistors connected in parallel is

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

$= \frac{R_1 R_2}{R_1 +R_2}$

From the question $I_p =10I_s$

=> $I_p =10I_s = \frac{V_0 }{\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1 +R_2} } = \frac{V_0 (R_1 +R_2)}{R_1 R_2}---(2)$

Dividing equation 2 with equation 1

=> $\frac{10I_s}{I_s} =\frac{\frac{V_0 (R_1 +R_2)}{R_1 R_2}}{\frac{V_0}{R_1 +R_2}}$

$10 = \frac{(R_1+R_2)^2}{R_1 R_2}----(3)$

We are told that $r = \frac{R_1}{R_2} \ \ \ \ \ = > R_1 = rR_2$

From equation 3

$10 = \frac{(1-r)^2}{r}$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 1+r^2 + 2r = 10r$

$=> \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ r^2 -8r+1 = 0$

Using the quadratic formula

$r =\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{(b^2 - 4ac)} }{2a}$

a = 1 b = -8 c =1

$= \frac{8 \pm\sqrt{((-8)^2- (4*1*1))} }{2*1}$

$r= \frac{8+ \sqrt{60} }{2} \ or \ r = \frac{8 - \sqrt{60} }{2}$

$r = \ 7.87\ or \ r \ = \ 0.127$

Now r = 0.127 because it is the least value among the obtained values

How does the sun transfer energy to Earth?

aleksley [76]

Answer:

By electromagnetic waves.

Explanation:

The sun transfers heat to earth via electromagnetic waves in twomajor ways:

$Radiation-$ this is the transfer of energy by invisible electromagnetic ways.

$Convection-$ The radiant sun energy warms the atmosphere and becomes heat energy. This transfer of heat through movement of fluids or usually air is called convection.

A tennis player serves a tennis ball such that it is moving horizontally when it leaves the racquet. When the ball travels a hor

nalin [4]

Answer:

$u_x=38.13\ m/s$

Explanation:

Given that initially ball moves in the horizontal direction ,it means that the velocity in the vertical direction is zero.

Horizontal distance = 13 m

Vertical distance = 57 cm

Lets take time to cover 57 cm distance in vertical direction is t.

We know that g is the constant acceleration in the vertical direction so we can apply the equation of motion in the vertical direction.

$S=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}gt^2$

Here $u_y=0$

S= 57 cm

$0.57=0\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times 9.81\times t^2$

t=0.34 s

Now in the horizontal direction

$x=u_xt$

Here x=13 m

t= 0.34 s

So

$13=u_x\times 0.34$

$u_x=38.13\ m/s$

So the initial speed of ball is 38.13 m/s.
