    Calculating Heat Loss in a Series Circuit

    Homework Statement Determine the heat loss in the circuit that is connected in series with two batteries (12 V and 6V) and two resistors (6ohms and 4 ohms). Homework EquationsThe Attempt at a Solution I used the difference in P = V^2/R, the power dissipated in the circuit, to calculate the...

    Need help with two questions - velocity and momentum?

    Speed does not have direction (scalar) and velocity is a vector quantity. How do I use this to solve Q1? I'm sorry for being unclear on Q2, as I am also unclear as to what the question is asking. All I know is - two people are playing throw and catch with a ball for sometime (no time given, no...

    Need help with two questions - velocity and momentum?

    Homework Statement Q1. A ball is rolling on a flat surface and another ball rolling on an inclined surface. When do both the balls have same velocity? Q2. When two people throw a ball and catch for a period of time, will the distance between them increase, decrease, or remain the same...
