-- With two resistors in parallel, the total effective resistance is
the reciprocal of  (1/R₁ + 1/R₂).

1/R₁ + 1/R₂  = 1/15 + 1/40

= 8/120 + 3/120

= 11/120

So the total effective resistance is 120/11 = 10.9 ohms .

Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

= 12 / (120/11)

= (12 · 11) / 120

= 132/120  =  1.1 Amperes

A.Whale communication. Blue whales apparently communicate with each other using sound of frequency 17.0 Hz, which can be heard n
Y_Kistochka [10]

A. 90.1 m

The wavelength of a wave is given by:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is its frequency

For the sound emitted by the whale, v = 1531 m/s and f = 17.0 Hz, so the wavelength is

\lambda=\frac{1531 m/s}{17.0 Hz}=90.1 m

B. 102 kHz

We can re-arrange the same equation used previously to solve for the frequency, f:

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}

where for the dolphin:

v = 1531 m/s is the wave speed

\lambda=1.50 cm=0.015 m is the wavelength

Substituting into the equation,

f=\frac{1531 m/s}{0.015 m}=1.02 \cdot 10^5 Hz=102 kHz

C. 13.6 m

Again, the wavelength is given by:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}

where

v = 340 m/s is the speed of sound in air

f = 25.0 Hz is the frequency of the whistle

Substituting into the equation,

\lambda=\frac{340 m/s}{25.0 Hz}=13.6 m

D. 4.4-8.7 m

Using again the same formula, and using again the speed of sound in air (v=340 m/s), we have:

- Wavelength corresponding to the minimum frequency (f=39.0 Hz):

\lambda=\frac{340 m/s}{39.0 Hz}=8.7 m

- Wavelength corresponding to the maximum frequency (f=78.0 Hz):

\lambda=\frac{340 m/s}{78.0 Hz}=4.4 m

So the range of wavelength is 4.4-8.7 m.

E. 6.2 MHz

In order to have a sharp image, the wavelength of the ultrasound must be 1/4 of the size of the tumor, so

\lambda=\frac{1}{4}(1.00 mm)=0.25 mm=2.5\cdot 10^{-4} m

And since the speed of the sound wave is

v = 1550 m/s

The frequency will be

f=\frac{v}{\lambda}=\frac{1550 m/s}{2.5\cdot 10^{-4} m}=6.2\cdot 10^6 Hz=6.2 MHz

A 50-kg load is suspended from a steel wire of diameter 1.0 mm and length 11.2 m. By what distance will the wire stretch? Young'
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

3.5 cm

Explanation:

mass, m = 50 kg

diameter = 1 mm

radius, r = half of diameter = 0.5 mm = 0.5 x 10^-3 m

L = 11.2 m

Y = 2 x 10^11 Pa

Area of crossection of wire = π r² = 3.14 x 0.5 x 10^-3 x 0.5 x 10^-3  

                                              = 7.85 x 10^-7 m^2

Let the wire is stretch by ΔL.

The formula for Young's modulus is given by

Y =\frac{mgL}{A\Delta L}

\Delta L =\frac{mgL}{A\times Y}

ΔL = 0.035 m = 3.5 cm

Thus, the length of the wire stretch by 3.5 cm.
