A 4.00- resistor, an 8.00- resistor, and a 24.0- resistor are connected together.
 
  (a) What is the maximum resistance that can be produced using all three resistors?
  (b) What is the minimum resistance that can be produced using all three resistors?
  (c) How would you connect these three resistors to obtain a resistance of 10.0 ?
  (d) How would you connect these three resistors to obtain a resistance of 8.00 ?
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

Three resistors having resistances of 4.0 , 6.0 , and 10.0  are connected in parallel. If the combination is connected in series with an ideal 12-V battery and a 2.0- resistor, what is the current through the 10.0- resistor?
 
  A) 0.59 A
  B) 2.7 A
  C) 6.4 A
  D) 11.2 A
  E) 16 A

Multiple experimental evidences have confirmed that at the molecular level, cancer is caused by lesions in cellular DNA.

Did you know?

Though methadone is often used to treat dependency on other opioids, the drug itself can be abused. Crushing or snorting methadone can achieve the opiate "rush" desired by addicts. Improper use such as these can lead to a dangerous dependency on methadone. This drug now accounts for nearly one-third of opioid-related deaths.

Did you know?

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).

Aspirin may benefit 11 different cancers, including those of the colon, pancreas, lungs, prostate, breasts, and leukemia.
