A circuit with a voltage source of 18V, has 3 resistors all connected on parallel, values at 2ohms, 6ohms and 7.5ohms. Find the total circuit resistance, and then subsequently, the total current supplied and power dissipated in the curcuit.

The total resistance is found by the addition of resistors in parallel, in the equation (1/R_T)=(1/R₁)+(1/R₂)+(1/R₃), therefore the total resistance is 1.25ohms....

30% of a population lacks the ability to taste the chemical PTC. Non-tasters are homozygouse recessive for this tasting gene. What percentage of the population are tasters and what percentage of the population are NOT heterozygous for this trait?

This question requires the knowledge of two equations from the Hardy-Weinberg Principle. p + q = 1 and p²+ 2pq + q² = 1 where p = dominant allele, and q = recessive allele. Firstly ...

Differentiate y=ln(x)+5x^2, and give the equation of the tangent at the point x=1

First differentiate the equation, giving you, y'=(1/x)+10x. To get the gradient at this point of the curve, plug in x=1, to get a y' value of 11, and a y value of 5. From there you can plug these three nu...
