Answer:

303 Ω

Explanation:

Given

Represent the resistors with R1, R2 and RT

R1 = 633

RT = 205

Required

Determine R2

Since it's a parallel connection, it can be solved using.

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2

Substitute values for R1 and RT

1/205 = 1/633 + 1/R2

Collect Like Terms

1/R2 = 1/205 - 1/633

Take LCM

1/R2 = (633 - 205)/(205 * 633)

1/R2 = 428/129765

Take reciprocal of both sides

R2 = 129765/428

R2 = 303 --- approximated

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

Given that:

mass (m) = 86 kg, distance (L) = 2.75 m, θ = 31°, force (F) = 595 N, initial velocity (v_i) = 2.4 m/s, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

The net work can be gotten from the equation:

W_{net}=Fcos(\theta)L-mgsin(\theta)L\\\\W_{net}=595*cos(31)*2.75-[86*9.81*sin(31)*2.75)\\\\W_{net}=1402.54-1194.92\\\\W_{net}=207.62

From the work-energy theorem equation, we can get her speed at the top of the ramp (v_f)

Hence:

W_{net}=change\ in\ kinetic\ energy\\\\W_{net}=\frac{1}{2}m(v_f^2-v_i^2 )\\\\2W_{net}=m(v_f^2-v_i^2 )\\\\v_i=\sqrt{ v_i^2+\frac{2W_{net}}{m}} \\\\v_f=\sqrt{ 2.4^2+\frac{2*207.62}{86}}}\\\\v_f=3.25\ m/s

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Yes the body will receive a dangerous shock in both cases.

Explanation:

Different parts of the body has different resistance. skin has the high resistance as compared to other organs of the body.

Dry skin has high resistance than wet skin this is because water is relatively good conductor of electricity, it adds parallel path to the current flow and hence reduces skin resistance.

Dry hands body has approximately 500 kΩ resistance and if 120 V electricity supply current received will be:

I = V/R= 120/ 500*10^3

I= 0.24 mA

Even the current seems is much lower than the safe zone but this is the case in case of DC voltage in case of AC voltage the body will receive a shock this is because the skin pass more current when the voltage is changing i.e. AC.

Similarly for wet hands body resistance is 1 kΩ. so the current through the body seems to be:

I = 120 / 1000

I = 12 mA

The current is higher than safe zone so the body will receive a dangerous shock.

Charge: A piece of plastic has a net charge of +2.00 μC. How many more protons than electrons does this piece of plastic have? (
snow_lady [41]

Answer

given,

net charge = +2.00 μC

we know,

1 coulomb charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸electrons

1 micro coulomb  charge =  6.28 x 10¹⁸ x 10⁻⁶ electron

                                         = 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

2.00 μC = 2 x 6.28 x 10¹² electrons

              = 1.256 x 10¹³ electrons

since net charge is positive.

The number of protons should be 1.256 x 10¹³ more than electrons.

hence, +2.00 μC have 1.256 x 10¹³ more protons than electrons.

vodomira [7]

Answer:

A sample of 5.2 mg  decays to .65 mg or to 1/8 of its original amount.

1/8 = 1/2 * 1/2 * 1/2 or 3 half-lives.

3 * 30.07 = 90 yrs for 5.2 mg to decay to .65 mg

You can get these other numbers similarly:

5.2 / .0102 = 510  requires about 9  half-lives which is 30 * 9 = 270 yrs
