NASA is giving serious consideration to the concept of solar sailing. A solar sailcraft uses a large, low mass sail and the energy and momentum of sunlight for propulsion. (a) Should the sail be absorbing or reflective
Answer:
Reflective
Explanation:
The radiation pressure of the wave that totally absorbed is given by;
[tex]P_{abs}= \frac{I}{C}[/tex]
and While the radiation pressure of the wave totally reflected is given by;
[tex]P_{ref}= \frac{2I}{C}[/tex]
Now compare the two-equation you can clearly see that the pressure due to reflection is larger than absorption therefore the sail should be reflective.
A truck moves 70 m east, then moves 120 m west, and finally moves east again a distance of 90 m. If east is chosen as the positive direction, what is the truck's resultant displacement
Answer:
140m east
Explanation:
If East is positive then lets rephrase the problem into integers
A truck moves +70 m, then moves -120m, and finally moves +90m.
So totally Displacement = +70-120+90= +140m
Since east is positive, the trucks resultant displacement is 140 m east of origin

A uniformly dense solid disk with a mass of 4 kg and a radius of 4 m is free to rotate around an axis that passes through the center of the disk and perpendicular to the plane of the disk. The rotational kinetic energy of the disk is increasing at 21 J/s. If the disk starts from rest through what angular displacement (in rad) will it have rotated after 3.3 s?
Answer:
3.44 rad
Explanation:
The rotational kinetic energy change of the disk is given by ΔK = 1/2I(ω² - ω₀²) where I = rotational inertia of solid sphere = MR²/2 where m = mass of solid disk = 4 kg and R = radius of solid disk = 4 m, ω₀ = initial angular speed of disk = 0 rad/s (since it starts from rest) and ω = final angular speed of disk
Since the kinetic energy is increasing at a rate of 21 J/s, the increase in kinetic energy in 3.3 s is ΔK = 21 J/s × 3.3 s = 69.3 J
So, ΔK = 1/2I(ω² - ω₀²)
Since ω₀ = 0 rad/s
ΔK = 1/2I(ω² - 0)
ΔK = 1/2Iω²
ΔK = 1/2(MR²/2)ω²
ΔK = MR²ω²/4
ω² = (4ΔK/MR²)
ω = √(4ΔK/MR²)
ω = 2√(ΔK/MR²)
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
ω = 2√(ΔK/MR²)
ω = 2√(69.3 J/( 4 kg × (4 m)²))
ω = 2√(69.3 J/[ 4 kg × 16 m²])
ω = 2√(69.3 J/64 kgm²)
ω = 2√(1.083 J/kgm²)
ω = 2 × 1.041 rad/s
ω = 2.082 rad/s
The angular displacement θ is gotten from
θ = ω₀t + 1/2αt² where ω₀ = initial angular speed = 0 rad/s (since it starts from rest), t = time of rotation = 3.3 s and α = angular acceleration = (ω - ω₀)/t = (2.082 rad/s - 0 rad/s)/3.3 s = 2.082 rad/s ÷ 3.3 s = 0.631 rad/s²
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
θ = ω₀t + 1/2αt²
θ = 0 rad/s × 3.3 s + 1/2 × 0.631 rad/s² (3.3 s)²
θ = 0 rad + 1/2 × 0.631 rad/s² × 10.89 s²
θ = 1/2 × 6.87159 rad
θ = 3.436 rad
θ ≅ 3.44 rad

The working substance of a certain Carnot engine is 1.90 of an ideal
monatomic gas. During the isothermal expansion portion of this engine's
cycle, the volume of the gas doubles, while during the adiabatic expansion
the volume increases by a factor of 5.7. The work output of the engine is
930 in each cycle.
Compute the temperatures of the two reservoirs between which this engine
operates.
Answer:
Explanation:
The energy for an isothermal expansion can be computed as:
[tex]\mathsf{Q_H =nRTIn (\dfrac{V_b}{V_a})}[/tex] --- (1)
However, we are being told that the volume of the gas is twice itself when undergoing adiabatic expansion. This implies that:
[tex]V_b = 2V_a[/tex]
Equation (1) can be written as:
[tex]\mathtt{Q_H = nRT_H In (2)}[/tex]
Also, in a Carnot engine, the efficiency can be computed as:
[tex]\mathtt{e = 1 - \dfrac{T_L}{T_H}}[/tex]
[tex]e = \dfrac{T_H-T_L}{T_H}[/tex]
In addition to that, for any heat engine, the efficiency e =[tex]\dfrac{W}{Q_H}[/tex]
relating the above two equations together, we have:
[tex]\dfrac{T_H-T_L}{T_H} = \dfrac{W}{Q_H}[/tex]
Making the work done (W) the subject:
[tex]W = Q_H \Big(\dfrac{T_H-T_L}{T_H} \Big)[/tex]
From equation (1):
[tex]\mathsf{W = nRT_HIn(2) \Big(\dfrac{T_H-T_L}{T_H} \Big)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{W = nRIn(2) \Big(T_H-T_L} \Big)}[/tex]
If we consider the adiabatic expansion as well:
[tex]PV^y[/tex] = constant
i.e.
[tex]P_bV_b^y = P_cV_c^y[/tex]
From ideal gas PV = nRT
we can have:
[tex]\dfrac{nRT_H}{V_b}(V_b^y)= \dfrac{nRT_L}{V_c}(V_c^y)[/tex]
[tex]T_H = T_L \Big(\dfrac{V_c}{V_b}\Big)^{y-1}[/tex]
From the question, let us recall aw we are being informed that:
If the volumes changes by a factor = 5.7
Then, it implies that:
[tex]\Big(\dfrac{V_c}{V_b}\Big) = 5.7[/tex]
∴
[tex]T_H = T_L (5.7)^{y-1}[/tex]
In an ideal monoatomic gas [tex]\gamma = 1.6[/tex]
As such:
[tex]T_H = T_L (5.7)^{1.6-1}[/tex]
[tex]T_H = T_L (5.7)^{0.67}[/tex]
Replacing the value of [tex]T_H = T_L (5.7)^{0.67}[/tex] into equation [tex]\mathsf{W = nRIn(2) \Big(T_H-T_L} \Big)}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{W = nRT_L In(2) (5.7 ^{0.67 }-1}})[/tex]
From in the question:
W = 930 J and the moles = 1.90
using 8.314 as constant
Then:
[tex]\mathsf{930 = (1.90)(8.314)T_L In(2) (5.7 ^{0.67 }-1}})[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{930 = 15.7966\times 1.5315 (T_L )})[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{T_L= \dfrac{930 }{15.7966\times 1.5315}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{T_L \simeq = 39 \ K}[/tex]
From [tex]T_H = T_L (5.7)^{0.67}[/tex]
[tex]\mathsf{T_H = 39 (5.7)^{0.67}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{T_H \simeq 125K}[/tex]
now suppose that we have attached not just two springs in series, but N springs. Write an equation that expresses the effective spring constant of the combination using the spring constant of the original spring k and the number of springs N
Answer:
[tex]k_{eq} = \frac{k}{N}[/tex]
Explanation:
For this exercise let's use hooke's law
F = - k x
where x is the displacement from the equilibrium position.
x = [tex]- \frac{F}{k}[/tex]
if we have several springs in series, the total displacement is the sum of the displacement for each spring, F the external force applied to the springs
x_ {total} = ∑ x_i
we substitute
x_ {total} = ∑ -F / ki
F / k_ {eq} = -F [tex]\sum \frac{1}{k_i}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{k_{eq}} = \frac{1}{k_i}[/tex] 1 / k_ {eq} = ∑ 1 / k_i
if all the springs are the same
k_i = k
[tex]\frac{1}{k_{eq}} = \frac{1}{k} \sum 1 \\[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{k_{eq} } = \frac{N}{k}[/tex]
[tex]k_{eq} = \frac{k}{N}[/tex]
A horse gallops a distance of 10 kilometers in a time of 30 minutes its average speed is?
Answer:
20 km/hr
Explanation:
Distance = 10km
Time = 30 minutes = 1/2 hour
Average Speed = Total distance / Total Time Taken
= 10 ÷ 1/2
= 10 x 2
= 20 km/hr
Average speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Average speed = (10 km) / (30 minutes)
Average speed = 1/3 km/min
Most people would probably want to see it in a more convenient, more familiar unit, such as km/hour or m/second.
(10 km / 30 min) x (60 min / hour) = (10 x 60 / 30) (km-min / min-hour)
Average speed = 20 km/hour
AvgSpd = (10 km / 30 min) x (1,000 m / km) x (min / 60 sec)
AvgSpd = (10x1,000 / 30x60) (km-m-min / min-km-sec)
Averge Speed = 5.56 m/s
The relation of mass m, angular velocity o and radius of the circular path r of an object with the centripetal force is-
a. F = m²wr
b. F = mwr²
c. F = mw²r
d. F = mwr.
Answer:
Correct option not indicated
Explanation:
There are few mistakes in the question. The angular velocity ought to have been denoted with "ω" and not "o" (as also suggested in the options).
The formula to calculate a centripetal force (F) is
F = mv²/r
Where m is mass, v is velocity and r is radius
where
While the formula to calculate a centrifugal force (F) is
F = mω²r
where m is mass, ω is angular velocity and r is radius of the circular path.
From the above, it can be denoted that the relationship been referred to in the question is that of a centrifugal force and not centripetal force, thus the correct option should be C.
NOTE: Centripetal force is the force required to keep an object moving in a circular path/motion and acts inward towards the centre of rotation while centrifugal force is the force felt by an object in circular motion which acts outward away from the centre of rotation.
A piston-cylinder device contains 5 kg of refrigerant-134a at 0.7 MPa and 60°C. The refrigerant is now cooled at constant pressure until it exists as a liquid at 24°C. If the surroundings are at 100 kPa and-24°C, determine:
(a) the exergy of the refrigerant at the initial and the final states and
(b) the exergy destroyed during this process.
Answer:
Yes sure, keep it going, and never give up because your dreams are so important
A) The exergy of the refrigerant at the initial and final states are :
Initial state = - 135.5285 kJ Final state = -51.96 kJB) The exergy destroyed during this process is : - 1048.4397 kJ
Given data :
Mass ( M ) = 5 kg
P1 = 0.7 Mpa = P2
T1 = 60°C = 333 k
To = 24°C = 297 k
P2 = 100 kPa
A) Determine the exergy at initial and final states
At initial state :
U = 274.01 kJ/Kg , V = 0.034875 m³/kg , S = 1.0256 KJ/kg.k
exergy ( Ф ) at initial state = M ( U + P₂V - T₀S )
= 5 ( 274.01 + 100* 10³ * 0.034875 - 297 * 1.0256)
≈ - 135.5285 kJ
At final state :
U = 84.44 kJ / kg , V = 0.0008261 m³/kg, S = 0.31958 kJ/kg.k
exergy ( ( Ф ) at final state = M ( U + P₂V - T₀S )
= -51.96 kJ
B) Determine the exergy destroyed
exergy destroyed = To * M ( S2 - S1 )
= 297 * 5 ( 0.31958 - 1.0256 )
= - 1048.4397 KJ
Hence we can conclude that A) The exergy of the refrigerant at the initial and final states are : Initial state = - 135.5285 kJ, Final state = -51.96 kJ and The exergy destroyed during this process is : - 1048.4397 kJ

and at an angle of 80° to the ground.
a. Determine the vertical velocity of the ball
when it is at the level of the net. You
should get two answers.
Please show ALL steps
Answer:
7.84 m/s
Explanation:
Height, h = 2 m
Initial velocity, u = 10 m/s
Angle, A = 80°
(a) Let the time taken to go to the net is t.
Use second equation of motion
[tex]h = u t + 0.5 at^2\\\\- 2 = - 10 sin 80 t - 4.9 t^2\\\\4.9 t^2 + 9.8 t - 2 = 0 \\\\t= \frac{- 9.8\pm\sqrt{9.8^2 + 4\times 4.9\times 2}}{9.8}\\\\t = \frac{- 9.8 \pm 11.6}{9.8}\\\\t = - 2.2 s , 0.2 s[/tex]
Time cannot be negative.
So, t = 0.2 s
The vertical velocity at t = 0.2 s is
v = u + at
v = 10 sin 80 - 9.8 x0.2
v = 9.8 - 1.96 = 7.84 m/s

The earth's radius is about 4000 miles. Kampala, the capital of Uganda, and Singapore are both nearly on the equator. The distance between them is 5000 miles as measured along the earth's surface.
a. Through what angle do you turn, relative to the earth, if you fly from Kampala to Singapore? Give your answer in both radians and degrees.
b. The flight from Kampala to Singapore take 9 hours. What is the plane's angular speed relative to the earth?
Answer:
a) the required angle in both radian and degree is 1.25 rad and 71.6°
b) the plane's angular speed relative to the earth is 3.86 × 10⁻⁵ rad/sec
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
a)
we know that The expression for the angle subtended by an arc of circle at the center of the circle is,
θ = Length / radius
given that Length is 5000 miles and radius is 4000 miles
we substitute
θ = 5000 miles / 4000 miles
θ = 1.25 rad
Radian to Degree
θ = 1.25 rad × ( 180° / π rad )
θ = 71.6°
Therefore, required angle in both radian and degree is 1.25 rad and 71.6°
b)
The flight from Kampala to Singapore take 9 hours.
the plane's angular speed relative to the earth = ?
we know that, the relation between angular velocity and angular displacement is;
ω = θ / t
given that θ is 1.25 rads and time t is 9 hours or ( 9 × 3600 sec ) = 32400 sec
we substitute
ω = 1.25 rad / 32400 sec
ω = 3.86 × 10⁻⁵ rad/sec
Therefore, the plane's angular speed relative to the earth is 3.86 × 10⁻⁵ rad/sec

Explanation:
A horizontal force of P=100 N is just sufficient to hold the crate from sliding down the plane, and a horizontal force of P=350 N is required to just push the crate up the plane. Determine the coefficient of static friction between the plane and the crate, and find the mass of the crate.
"down/up the plane" suggests an inclined plane, but no angle is given so I'll call it θ for the time being.
The free body diagram for the crate in either scenario is the same, except for the direction in which static friction is exerted on the crate. With the P = 100 N force holding up the crate, static friction points up the incline and keeps the crate from sliding downward. When P = 350 N, the crate is pushed upward, so static friction points down. (see attached FBDs)
Using Newton's second law, we set up the following equations.
• p = 100 N
∑ F (parallel) = f + p cos(θ) - mg sin(θ) = 0
∑ F (perpendicular) = n - p sin(θ) - mg cos(θ) = 0
• P = 350 N
∑ F (parallel) = P cos(θ) - F - mg sin(θ) = 0
∑ F (perpendicular) = N - P sin(θ) - mg cos(θ) = 0
(where n and N are the magnitudes of the normal force in the respective scenarios; ditto for f and F which denote static friction, so that f = µn and F = µN, with µ = coefficient of static friction)
Solve for n and N :
n = p sin(θ) + mg cos(θ)
N = P sin(θ) - mg cos(θ)
Substitute these into the corresponding equations containing µ, and solve for µ :
µ = (mg sin(θ) - p cos(θ)) / (mg cos(θ) + p sin(θ))
µ = (P cos(θ) - mg sin(θ)) / (P sin(θ) + mg cos(θ))
Next, you would set these equal and solve for m :
(mg sin(θ) - p cos(θ)) / (mg cos(θ) + p sin(θ)) = (P cos(θ) - mg sin(θ)) / (P sin(θ) + mg cos(θ))
...
Once you find m, you back-substitute and solve for µ, but as you might expect the result will be pretty complicated. If you take a simple angle like θ = 30°, you would end up with
m ≈ 36.5 kg
µ ≈ 0.256
The coefficient of static friction between the plane and the crate is μ = 0.256 and the mass of the crate is m=36.4 kg.
From the given,
The force that opposes the crate by sliding is P = 100N
In X-axis, the sum of forces is zero.
ΣF = 0
Pcosθ - mgsinθ-Ff = 0
Ff = Pcosθ - mgsinθ
In Y-axis
Psinθ - mgcosθ - N = 0
N = Psinθ-mgcosθ
Frictional force, Ff = μN, μ is the coefficient of friction
Ff = μN
Pcos30- mgsin30 + μ( Psin30+mgcos30) = 0
μ = mgsin30-Pcos30/Psin30+mgcos30 ------1
The block is sliding with the horizontal force, F = 350N
X-axis
P₂cosθ - mgsinθ-Ff = 0
Y-axis
P₂sinθ - mgcosθ - N = 0
N = P₂sinθ-mgcosθ
μ = P₂cos30-mgsin30/P₂sin30-mgcos30 -----2
Equate equations 1 and 2
mgsin30-Pcos30/Psin30+mgcos30 =P₂cos30-mgsin30/P₂sin30-mgcos30

83.4m² - 2207m -3.03×10⁴ = 0
m= 36.4 kg
Hence, the mass of the crate is 36.4 Kg.
Substitute the value of m in equation 1,
μ = 4.905(36.4) - 86.6 / 50 + 8.49
μ = 0.256

SCALCET8 3.9.018.MI. A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed of 1.7 m/s, how fast is the length of his shadow on the building decreasing when he is 4 m from the building
Answer:
The length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s
Explanation:
The ray of light hitting the ground forms a right angled triangle of height H, which is the height of the building and width, D which is the distance of the tip of the shadow from the building.
Also, the height of the man, h which is parallel to H forms a right-angled triangle of width, L which is the length of the shadow.
By similar triangles,
H/D = h/L
L = hD/H
Also, when the man is 4 m from the building, the length of his shadow is L = D - 4
So, D - 4 = hD/H
H(D - 4) = hD
H = hD/(D - 4)
Since h = 2 m and D = 12 m,
H = 2 m × 12 m/(12 m - 4 m)
H = 24 m²/8 m
H = 3 m
Since L = hD/H
and h and H are constant, differentiating L with respect to time, we have
dL/dt = d(hD/H)/dt
dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H
Now dD/dt = velocity(speed) of man = -1.7 m/s ( negative since he is moving towards the building in the negative x - direction)
Since h = 2 m and H = 3 m,
dL/dt = h(dD/dt)/H
dL/dt = 2 m(-1.7 m/s)/3 m
dL/dt = -3.4/3 m/s
dL/dt = -1.13 m/s
So, the length of his shadow is decreasing at a rate of 1.13 m/s
What is the maximum distance the train can travel if it accelerates from rest until it reaches its cruising speed and then runs at that speed for 15 minutes
The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
A high-speed bullet train accelerates and decelerates at the rate of 4 ft/s^2. Its maximum cruising speed is 90 mi/h. What is the maximum distance the train can travel if it accelerates from rest until it reaches its cruising speed and then runs at that speed for 15 minutes?
Solution :
Given :
Speed of the bullet train, v = 90 mi/h
= [tex]$90 \times \frac{5280}{3600}$[/tex]
= 132 ft/s
Time = 15 minutes
= 15 x 60
= 900 s
Acceleration from rest,
[tex]$a(t) = 4 \ ft/s^2$[/tex]
[tex]$v(t) = 4t + C$[/tex]
Since, v(0) = 0, then C = 0, so velocity is
v(t) = 4t ft/s
Then find the position function,
[tex]$s(t) = \frac{4}{2}t^2 + C$[/tex]
[tex]$=2t^2+C$[/tex]
It is at position 0 when t = 0, so C = 0, and the final position function for only the time it is accelerating is :
[tex]$s(t) = 2t^2$[/tex]
Time to get maximum cruising speed is :
4t = 132
t = 33 s
Distance travelled (at cruising speed) by speed to get the remaining distance travelled.
[tex]$900 \ s \times 132 \ \frac{ft}{s} = 118800 \ ft$[/tex]
Total distance travelled, converting back to miles,
[tex]$2178 + 118800 = 120978\ ft . \ \frac{mi}{5280 \ ft}$[/tex]
= 22.9125 mi
Therefore, the distance travelled is 22.9125 miles
In a certain cyclotron a proton moves in a circle of radius 0.530 m. The magnitude of the magnetic field is 1.30 T. (a) What is the oscillator frequency
Answer:
[tex]f=1.98\times 10^7\ Hz[/tex]
Explanation:
Given that,
The radius of circle, r = 0.53 m
The magnitude of the magnetic field, B = 1.3 T
We need to find the oscillator frequency. It is given by :
[tex]f=\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}[/tex]
Put all the values,
[tex]f=\dfrac{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 1.3}{2\pi \times 1.67\times 10^{-27}}\\\\f=1.98\times 10^7\ Hz[/tex]
So, the oscillator frequency is [tex]1.98\times 10^7\ Hz[/tex].

Mathematically, the volume of a cuboid is given by the formula;
Volume of cuboid = length * width * height
However, when all the sides are equal the formula is;
Volume of cuboid = L³
Volume of cuboid = 0.04³
Volume of cuboid = 0.000064 cubic meters.
A tank is full of water. Find the work (in J) required to pump the water out of the spout. (Use 9.8 m/s2 for g. Use 1,000 kg/m3 as the density of water. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)
A bullet with mass 5.35 g is fired horizontally into a 2.174-kg block attached to a horizontal spring. The spring has a constant 6.17 102 N/m and reaches a maximum compression of 6.34 cm.
(a) Find the initial speed of the bullet-block system.
(b) Find the speed of the bullet.
Answer:
a)[tex]V=1.067\: m/s[/tex]
b)[tex]v=434.65\: m/s [/tex]
Explanation:
a)
Using the conservation of energy between the moment when the bullet hit the block and the maximum compression of the spring.
[tex]\frac{1}{2}MV^{2}=\frac{1}{2}k\Delta x^{2}[/tex]
Where:
M is the bullet-block mass (0.00535 kg + 2.174 kg = 2.17935 kg)V is the speed of the systemk is the spring constant (6.17*10² N/m)Δx is the compression of the spring (0.0634 m)Then, let's find the initial speed of the bullet-block system.
[tex]V^{2}=\frac{k\Delta x^{2}}{M}[/tex]
[tex]V=\sqrt{\frac{6.17*10^{2}*0.0634^{2}}{2.17935}}[/tex]
[tex]V=1.067\: m/s[/tex]
b)
Using the conservation of momentum we can find the velocity of the bullet.
[tex]mv=MV[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{MV}{m}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{2.17935*1.067}{0.00535}[/tex]
[tex]v=434.65\: m/s [/tex]

a circuit shown below is Wheastone Bridge used to determine the valve of unknown resistor X by comparison with three resistors M,N,P whose resistances can be varied. For each setting, the resistances of each resistor is precisely known. With switches k1and k2 closed, these resistors are varied until the current in the galvanometer G is zero; the bridge is then said to be balanced. (a) if the galvanometer G shows zero deflection when M=850.0, N=15.00 and P=33.48, what is the unknown resistance X?
Answer:
X = 0.6
Explanation:
The resistance of the unknown resistor can be found by using the formula of the Wheatstone bridge:
[tex]\frac{M}{N}=\frac{P}{X}\\\\\frac{850}{15} = \frac{33.48}{X}\\\\X = \frac{(33.48)(15)}{850}[/tex]
X = 0.6
Hence, the unknown value of resistance is found to be 0.6 units.
Explain the following defects of a simple electric cell:
a.Polarization,
ß. Local action.
Answer:
Explanation:
The two major defects of simple electric cells causes current supplied to be for short time. These defects are: polarization and local action.
a. Polarization: This is a defect caused by an accumulation of hydrogen bubbles at the positive electrode of the cell. It can be prevented by the use of vent, using a hydrogen absorbing material or the use of a depolarizer.
b. Local Action: This is the gradual wearing away of the electrode due to impurities in the zinc plate. It can be controlled by the amalgamation of the zinc plate before it is used.
two resistors with resistance values 4.5 ohms and 2.3 ohms are connected in series or parallel across a potential difference of 30V to a light bulb find the current flowing through the light bulb in both cases
Answer:
Look at work
Explanation:
Series:
I is the same for all resistors so just find the value of Req. In series Req= R1+R2+...+Rn. So here it will be 4.5+2.3=6.8ohms. Ieq=Veq/Req=4.41A. And since current is the same across all resistors the current to the lightbulb is 4.41A.
Parallel:
V is the same for all resistors so start of by finding Req. In parallel, Ieq=I1+I2+...+In. So I1= 30/4.5= 6.67A and I2= 13.04A. Ieq= 6.67+13.04= 19.71A.
