All scientists try to base their conclusions on ____

A circuit is supplied with 60 VDC and contains two series resistors with values of 100 and 400 . What is the total current in th

scoundrel [369]

When resistors are connected in series, they act like
a single resistor whose resistance is their sum.

100 ohms and 400 ohms, connected in series, look like
a single resistor of 500 ohms.

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

= (60 volts) / (500 ohms) = 0.12 A.
________________________

Current is measured by connecting a meter in series
with an energized component. In other words, a break
is made in the circuit, the meter is connected in the break,
and the current to be measured literally flows through the meter.

A large solar panel on a spacecraft in Earth orbit produces 1.0 kW of power when the panel is turned toward the sun. What power

Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

e*P_s = 11 W

Explanation:

Given:

- e*P = 1.0 KW

- r_s = 9.5*r_e

- e is the efficiency of the panels

Find:

What power would the solar cell produce if the spacecraft were in orbit around Saturn

Solution:

- We use the relation between the intensity I and distance of light:

I_1 / I_2 = ( r_2 / r_1 ) ^2

- The intensity of sun light at Saturn's orbit can be expressed as:

I_s = I_e * ( r_e / r_s ) ^2

I_s = ( 1.0 KW / e*a) * ( 1 / 9.5 )^2

I_s = 11 W / e*a

- We know that P = I*a, hence we have:

P_s = I_s*a

P_s = 11 W / e

Hence, e*P_s = 11 W

If you double the mass of an object while leaving the net force unchanged what is the result

valentinak56 [21]

Answer: If the net force acting on an object doubles, its acceleration is doubled. If the mass is doubled, then acceleration will be halved. If both the net force and the mass are doubled, the acceleration will be unchanged.

A small particle with positive charge q = +4.25 x 10^-4C and mass m = 5.00 x 10^-5 kg is moving in a region of uniform electric

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

a) r = (0.6 i- 2039 j ^ + 0.102 k⁾ m and b) vₓ = 30.0 m / s , v_{y} = 2.04 10⁵ m / s c) v_{z} = 1.02 10⁻¹m / s

Explanation:

a) To find the position of the particle at a given moment we must know the approximation of the body, use Newton's second law to find the acceleration

Fe + Fm = m a

a = (Fe + Fm) / m

the electric force is

Fe = q E k ^

Fe = 4.25 10-4 60 k ^

Fe = 2.55 10-2 k ^

the magnetic force is

Fm = q v x B

Fm = 4.25 10⁻⁴ $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\30&0&0\\0&0&49\end{array}\right]$

fm = 4.25 10⁻⁴ (-j ^ 30 4)

fm 0 = ^ -5,10 10⁻² j

We look for every component of acceleration

X axis

aₓ = 0

there is no force

Axis y

ay = -5.10 10²/5 10⁻⁵ j ^

ay = -1.02 107 j ^ / s2

z axis

az = 2.55 10⁻² / 5 10⁻⁵ k ^

az = 5.1 10² k ^ m / s²

Having the acceleration in each axis we can encocoar the position using kinematics

X axis

the initial velocity is vo = 30 m / s and an initial position xo = 0

x = vo t + ½ aₓ t₂2

x = 30 0.02 + 0

x = 0.6m

Axis y

acceleration is ay = -1.02 10⁷ m / s², a starting position of i = 1m

y = I + go t + ½ ay t²

y = 1 + 0 + ½ (-1.02 10⁷) 0.02²

y = 1 - 2.04 10³

y = -2039 m j ^

z axis

acceleration is aza = 5.1 10² m / s², the position and initial speed are zero

z = zo + v₀ t + ½ az t²

z = 0 + 0 + ½ 5.1 10² 0.02²

z = 1.02 10⁻¹ m k ^

therefore the position of the bodies is

r = (0.6 i- 2039 j ^ + 0.102 k⁾ m

b) x axis

since there is no acceleration the speed remains constant

vₓ = 30.0 m / s

Axis y

let's use the equation v = v₀ + $a_{y}$ t

$v_{y}$ = 0 + -1.02 10⁷ 0.02

v_{y} = 2.04 10⁵ m / s

z axis

v_{z} = vo + az t

v_{z} = 0 + 5.1 10² 0.02

v_{z} = 1.02 10⁻¹m / s

If you find an igneous rock which has 450 radioactive isotopes and 3,150 stable daughter isotopes, how many half-lifes of this i

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

$3t_{1/2}$

Explanation:

To find the half-lifes of the isotope we need to use the following equation:

$N_{t} = N_{0}2^{-\frac{t}{t_{1/2}}}$ (1)

where Nt: is the amount of the isotope that has not yet decayed after a time t, N₀: is the initial amount of the isotope, t: is the time and $t_{1/2}$ : is the half-lifes.
