spin [16.1K]2 years ago

Answer:

parallel connection:Advandages: 1. Every unit that is connected in a parallel circuit gets equal amount of voltage.2. It becomes easy to connect or disconnect a new element without affecting the working of other elements.3. If any fault happened to the circuit, then also the current is able to pass through the circuit through different paths.Disadvantages: 1. It requires the use of lot of wires.2. We cannot increase or multiply the voltage in a parallel circuit.3. Parallel connection fails at the time when it is required to pass exactly same amount of current through the units.series connection:Advantages: 1. Series circuits do not overheat easily. This makes them very useful in the case of something that might be around a potentially flammable source, like dry plants or cloth.2. Series circuits are easy to learn and to make. Their simple design is easy to understand, and this means that it’s simple to conduct repairs .3. we can add more power devices, they have a higher output in terms of voltage .4. The current that flows in a series circuit has to flow through every component in the circuit. Therefore, all of the components in a series connection carry the same current.Disadvantages: 1.If one point breaks in the series circuit,the total circuit will break.2. As the number of components in a circuit increases ,greater will be the circuit resistance.

How are density and pressure related related to each other?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

The pressure is the measure of force acting on a unit area. Density is the measure of how closely any given entity is packed, or it is the ratio of the mass of the entity to its volume. The relation between pressure and density is direct. Change in pressure will be reflected in a change in density

A steam engine absorbs 4 x 105 J and expels 3.5 x 105 J in each cycle. What is its efficiency?
Wewaii [24]
Input heat, Qin = 4 x 10⁵ J
Output heat, Qout = 3.5 x 10⁵ J

From the first Law of thermodynamics, obtain useful work performed as
W = Qin  -  Qout
     = 0.5 x 10⁵ J

By definition, the efficiency is
η = W/Qin
   = 100*(0.5 x 10⁵/4 x 10⁵)
   = 12.5%

Answer: The efficiency is 12.5%

The water in a river flows uniformly at a constant speed of 2.50 m/s between parallel banks 80.0 m apart. You are to deliver a p
NISA [10]

Answer:

a)  The swimmer should travel perpendicular to the bank to minimize the spent in getting to the other side.

b) 133.33 m

c) 53.13°

d) 106.67 m

Explanation:

a) The swimmer should travel perpendicular to the bank to minimize the spent in getting to the other side.

b) velocity = distance * time

Let the velocity of the swimmer be v_{s} = 1.5 m/s

The separation of the two sides of the river, d = 80 m

The time taken by the swimmer to get to the other end of the river bank,

t = \frac{d}{v_{s} }

t = 80/1.5

t = 53.33 s

The swimmer will be carried downstream by the river through a distance, s

Let the velocity of the river be v_{r} = 2.5 m/s

S = v_{r} t

S = 53.33 * 2.5

S = 133.33 m

c) To minimize the distance traveled by the swimmer, his resultant velocity must be perpendicular to the velocity of the swimmer relative to water

That is ,

cos \theta = \frac{v_{s} }{v_{r} } \\cos \theta = 1.5/2.5\\cos \theta = 0.6\\\theta = cos^{-1} 0.6\\\theta = 53.13^{0}

d) Downstream velocity of the swimmer, v_{y} = v_{s} sin \theta\\

v_{y} = 1.5 sin 53.13\\v_{y} = 1.2 m/s

The vertical displacement is given by, y = v_{y} t

80 = 1.2 t

t = 80/1.2

t = 66.67 s

the horizontal speed,

v_{x} = 2.5 - 1.5cos53.13\\v_{x} = 1.6 m/s

The downstream horizontal distance of the swimmer, x = v_{x} t

x = 1.6 * 66.67

x = 106.67 m

Studying this brochure from nasa, which explains more detail the instruments carried by the Juno spacecraft which scientific act
adoni [48]

Answer:

Juno scientific payload includes:

  • A gravity/radio science system (Gravity Science)
  • A six-wavelength microwave radiometer for atmospheric sounding and composition (MWR)
  • A vector magnetometer (MAG)
  • Plasma and energetic particle detectors (JADE and JEDI)
  • A radio/plasma wave experiment (Waves)
  • An ultraviolet imager/spectrometer (UVS)
  • An infrared imager/spectrometer (JIRAM)

Explanation:

Each mission of NASA has a specific set of instruments that it uses to perform scientific experiments on the desired heavenly body. In case of Juno, the mission for Jupiter has a series of instruments that would study domains of gravitational forces, magnetic effect, particle detection, radiation detection, UV/IR imaging, and plasma experiments.
