If a 6 volt battery is connected in series to resistances of 2 ohms, 8 ohms, and 14 ohms, what is the amount of the current that is flowing?

I = 0.25 [amp]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use ohm's law which tells us that the voltage is equal to the product of the current by the resistance.

V = I*R

where:

V = voltage [Volt]

I = amperage or current [amp]

R = resistance [ohm]

Since all resistors are connected in series, the total resistance will be equal to the arithmetic sum of all resistors.

Rt = 2 + 8 + 14

Rt = 24 [ohm]

Now clearing I for amperage

I = V/Rt

I = 6/24

I = 0.25 [amp]

the answer is false

explanation:

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s

given:

acceleration = 0.6

time = 4.5 s

to find:

velocity = ?

formula used:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

solution:

from 1st kinematic equation we get,

v = u + at

u = initial speed of train = 0 m/s

v = final speed of the train

a = acceleration of the train

t = time

v = 0 + (0.6 × 4.5)

v = 2.7 m/s

the minimum constant speed at which she can catch the train is 2.7 m/s
