A 16-Ω loudspeaker, an 8.0-Ω loudspeaker, and a 4.0-Ω loudspeaker are connected in parallel across the terminals of an amplifier

. Determine the equivalent resistance of the three speakers, assuming that they all behave as resistors.

Answer:

2.286 ohm

Explanation:

R1 = 16 ohm

R2 = 8 ohm

R3 = 4 ohm

They all are connected in parallel combination

Let the equivalent resistance is R.

1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3

1/R = 1/16 + 1/8 + 1/4

1/R = (1 + 2 + 4) / 16

1/R = 7 / 16

R = 16/7 = 2.286 ohm

Consider a vibrating system described by the initial value problem. (A computer algebra system is recommended.) u'' + 1 4 u' + 2

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

Therefore the required solution is

$U(t)=\frac{2(2-\omega^2)^2}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega} cos\omega t +\frac{\frac{1}{2}\omega}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega} sin \omega t$

Explanation:

Given vibrating system is

$u''+\frac{1}{4}u'+2u= 2cos \omega t$

Consider U(t) = A cosωt + B sinωt

Differentiating with respect to t

U'(t)= - A ω sinωt +B ω cos ωt

Again differentiating with respect to t

U''(t) = - A ω² cosωt -B ω² sin ωt

Putting this in given equation

$-A\omega^2cos\omega t-B\omega^2sin \omega t+ \frac{1}{4}(-A\omega sin \omega t+B\omega cos \omega t)+2Acos\omega t+2Bsin\omega t = 2cos\omega t$

$\Rightarrow (-A\omega^2+\frac{1}{4}B\omega +2A)cos \omega t+(-B\omega^2-\frac{1}{4}A\omega+2B)sin \omega t= 2cos \omega t$

Equating the coefficient of sinωt and cos ωt

$\Rightarrow (-A\omega^2+\frac{1}{4}B\omega +2A)= 2$

$\Rightarrow (2-\omega^2)A+\frac{1}{4}B\omega -2=0$ .........(1)

and

$\Rightarrow -B\omega^2-\frac{1}{4}A\omega+2B= 0$

$\Rightarrow -\frac{1}{4}A\omega+(2-\omega^2)B= 0$ ........(2)

Solving equation (1) and (2) by cross multiplication method

$\frac{A}{\frac{1}{4}\omega.0 -(-2)(2-\omega^2)}=\frac{B}{-\frac{1}{4}\omega.(-2)-0.(2-\omega^2)}=\frac{1}{(2-\omega^2)^2-(-\frac{1}{4}\omega)(\frac{1}{4}\omega)}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{A}{2(2-\omega^2)}=\frac{B}{\frac{1}{2}\omega}=\frac{1}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega}$

$\therefore A=\frac{2(2-\omega^2)^2}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega}$ and $B=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\omega}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega}$

Therefore the required solution is

$U(t)=\frac{2(2-\omega^2)^2}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega} cos\omega t +\frac{\frac{1}{2}\omega}{(2-\omega^2)^2+\frac{1}{16}\omega} sin \omega t$

The pencil rotates about an axis perpendicular to the plane of the figure. which of the labeled points is the point that the axi

attashe74 [19]

The labeled points which is Letter B in the given Image is the point that the axis of rotation passes through. This problem is an example of rotational dynamics, formerly an object moves in a straight line then the motion is translational but when an object at inactivity lean towards to continue at inactivity and an object in rotation be possible to continue rotating with continuous angular velocity unless bound by a net external torque to act then is rotational. In a rotational motion, the entity is not treated as a constituent part but is treated in translational motion. It points out with the study of torque that outcomes angular accelerations of the object.

if m represents mass in kg, v represents speed in m/s, and r represents radius in m, show that the force F in the equation F=mv^

Zarrin [17]

This approach is called the dimensional analysis which involves only the units of measurement without their magnitudes. You simply have to do the operations by using variables. Cancel out like items that may appear both in the numerator and denominator side. The solution is as follows:

F = mv²/r = [kg][m/s]²/[m] = [kg][m²⁻¹][1/s²] = [kg·m/s²]

A ray of light passes from air into carbon disulfide (n = 1.63) at an angle of 28.0 degrees to the normal. what is the refracted

Snezhnost [94]

We can solve the problem by using Snell's law, which states
$n_i \sin \theta_i = n_r \sin \theta_r$
where
$n_i$ is the refractive index of the first medium
$\theta_i$ is the angle of incidence
$n_r$ is the refractive index of the second medium
$\theta_r$ is the angle of refraction

In our problem, $n_i=1.00$ (refractive index of air), $\theta_i = 28.0^{\circ}$ and $n_r=1.63$ (refractive index of carbon disulfide), therefore we can re-arrange the previous equation to calculate the angle of refraction:
$\sin \theta_r = \frac{n_i}{n_r} \sin \theta_r = \frac{1.00}{1.63} \sin 28.0^{\circ} = 0.288$
From which we find
$\theta_r = \arcsin (0.288)=16.7^{\circ}$

In a charge-free region of space, a closed container is placed in an electric field. Which of the following is a requirement for

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

D. The requirement does not exist -the total electric flux is zero no matter what.

Explanation:

According to Gauss's law , total electric flux over a closed surface is equal to 1 / ε₀ times charge inside.

If charge inside is zero , total electric flux over a closed surface is equal to

zero . It has nothing to do with whether external field is uniform or not. For any external field , lines entering surface will be equal to flux going out.
