In a series circuit...

-- The overall resistance equals the sum of the individual resistances.

-- The current remains identical throughout the circuit.

The total resistance in this circuit is (3Ω + 6Ω )  =  9Ω

<pThe current at every point measures (V/R) = (12v / 9Ω ) = 1.33 A.

Select choice (a).

A tennis ball bounces on the floor three times. If each time it loses 22.0% of its energy due to heating, how high does it rise
Ostrovityanka [3204]

Answer:

H = 109.14 cm

Explanation:

Given,                                                            

Assume that the total energy equals 1 unit.                                

Energy remaining after the first collision = 0.78 x 1 unit

Balance after the first impact = 0.78 units

Remaining energy after the second impact = 0.78 ^2 units

Balance after the second impact = 0.6084 units

Remaining energy after the third impact = 0.78 ^3 units

Balance after the third impact = 0.475 units

The height reached after the third collision is equivalent to the remaining energy.

Let H denote the height achieved after three bounces.

0.475 (m g h) = m g H                  

H = 0.475 x h                                    

H = 0.475 x 2.3 m                          

H = 1.0914 m                      

H = 109.14 cm

A 5 kg block moves with a constant speed of 10 ms to the right on a smooth surface where frictional forces are considered to be
Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

The work done, W = 19.6 J

Explanation:

It’s provided that

The mass of the block, m = 5 kg

The velocity of the block, v = 10 m/s

The coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and rough surface is 0.2

Distance traveled by the block, d = 2 m

As the block traverses the rough section, it loses energy equal to the work done by the kinetic energy.

W=\mu_kmgd

W=0.2\times 5\times 9.8\times 2

W = 19.6 J

Thus, the change in kinetic energy of the block moving through the rough section is 19.6 J. Consequently, this is the required answer.

Yuliya22 [3333]

Answer:

50.2 cm

Explanation:

We have the following data:

Height, h=3.5 m

Initial horizontal velocity, u_x=15 m/s

Time, t=0.32 s

We need to determine how far the ball is from the ground after 0.32 s.

Initial vertical velocity, u_y=0

s=u_yt+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

Where g=9.8 m/s^

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(0.32)^2

s=0.502 m

s=0.502\times 100=50.2 cm

A particle in the first excited state of a one-dimensional infinite potential energy well (with U = 0 inside the well) has an en
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

The particle's energy in its ground state is E₁=1.5 eV.

Explanation:

For a particle with mass m in the nth energy level of an infinite square well potential of width L , the energy E_{n} is given by:

                                                    E_{n}=\frac{n^{2}h^{2}}{8mL^{2}}

In the ground state (n=1) and in the first excited state (n=2), where the energy is noted as E₂= 6.0 eV. Substituting into the above equation yields:

                                                    E_{1}=\frac{h^{2}}{8mL^{2}}            

                                                    E_{2}=\frac{h^{2}}{2mL^{2}}

Thus, we can express the ground state's energy as:

                                                   E_{1}=\frac{1}{4}(\frac{h^{2}}{2mL^{2}})

                                                      E_{1}=\frac{1}{4} E_{2}

                                                   E_{1}=\frac{1}{4} ( 6.0\ eV)

Ultimately

                                                    E_{1}=1.5\ eV

An 80.0-kg object is falling and experiences a drag force due to air resistance. The magnitude of this drag force depends on its
Softa [3030]
The terminal velocity of the object is 12.58 m/s. Explanation: Terminal velocity occurs when the drag force equals the weight of the object. The gravitational force is calculated as mg = 80 * 9.8 = 784 N. The drag force can then be equated to solve for the terminal velocity, resulting in v = 12.58 m/s or v = -15.58 m/s (which is unfeasible). Thus, the terminal velocity of the falling object is 12.58 m/s.
