A complete circuit contains two parallel-connected devices and a generator for providing the electromotive force. The resistance

of the first device is 12 ohms, the resistance of the second device is 4 ohms, and the voltage developed by the generator is 40 V. What is the magnitude of the current flowing through the first device?

Parallel circuits are circuits when placed in a parallel position. Meaning that for each device, they have their own branch. The voltage that is received in the circuit is equal to the individual devices. The total current is equal to the current of each device. The resistance is the reciprocal of the resistances of each device combined.  

Given:
Device 1 = 12 ohms
Device 2 = 4 ohms
Voltage total = 40V  

Required:
Current at 12 ohms  

Solution:
40V = V1 =V2  

Since V =IR
I1 = V1/R1
I1 = (40V)/(12 ohms)

A botanist has discovered a new plant species and is trying to classify the plant. Its seed has one cotyledon, it has six flower
lana66690 [7]

The best suited group for the mentioned plant is Angiosperms and monocot.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

As mentioned the seed of the plant has one cotyledon and the specific name for these type of plants whose seeds has one cotyledon is called Monocot, Suppose if the seed of the plant has two seeds, It is called dicot.

Hence we can conclude that the mentioned plant comes under monocot and not dicot.  On the other hand, Angiosperms refers to the plants that has flowers with it and gymnosperms usually includes plants without flowers and hence we can classify the plant as Angiosperm and monocot.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

The original water sample contains 830,000 cells per milliliter.

Explanation:

A sample of well water is tested for its bacterial content in a plate count assay. A one-milliliter sample of the water is diluted in a 1:10 dilution series. One milliliter of the fourth dilution tube is plated in a pour plate. After incubation, the plate has 83 colonies, indicating that the original water sample contained 830,000 cells per milliliter.
