A parallel circuit exists when an electric charge flows in more than one path best describes it.

<h3>What is a Parallel circuit?</h3>

This type of circuit has branches in which the current divides and only part of it flows through any of the branch.

Parallel circuit having more than one branch therefore means that electric charge will flow in more than one path thereby making option A the most appropriate choice.

Using the same cost and time estimates, consider any trade-offs that SciTech may have to make to complete the project.

ch4aika [34]

Answer:

Oracio is the most cost-effective choice because he would cost the least to complete the project. However, he would also take the longest amount of time. Camilla could complete the job the fastest, but she costs more than Oracio. SciTech will have to decide if it is more important to save money or complete the work quickly to meet the deadline.

Hope this helps :)

How can a 1kg ball have more kinetic energy than a 100kg ball? Explain both using words and by providing a numerical example

MariettaO [177]

1 kg ball can have more kinetic energy than a 100 kg ball as increase in velocity is having greater impact on K.E than increase in mass.

<u>Explanation</u>:

We know kinetic energy can be judged or calculated by two parameters only which is mass and velocity. As kinetic energy is directly proportional to the $(velocity)^2$ and increase in velocity leads to greater effect on translational Kinetic Energy. Here formula of Kinetic Energy suggests that doubling the mass will double its K.E but doubling velocity will quadruple its velocity:

$\text { Kinetic Energy }=\frac{1}{2} m v^{2}$

Better understood from numerical example as given:

If a man A having weight 50 kg run with speed 5 m/s and another man B having 100 kg weight run with 2.5 m / s. Which man will have more K.E?

This can be solved as follows:

$\text { Kinetic Energy of } \mathrm{A}=\frac{1}{2} 50 \times 5^{2}=625 \mathrm{J}$

$\text { Kinetic Energy bf } \mathrm{B}=\frac{1}{2} 100 \times 2.5^{2}=312.5 \mathrm{J}$

It shows that man A will have more K.E.

Hence 1 kg ball can have more K.E than 100 kg ball by doubling velocity.

A high-jump athlete leaves the ground, lifting her center of mass 1.8 m and crossing the bar with a horizontal velocity of 1.4 m

Romashka [77]

Answer:

The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Horizontal velocity = 1.4 m/s

Height = 1.8 m

We need to calculate the minimum speed must she leave the ground

Using conservation of energy

$K.E+P.E=P.E+K.E$

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{1}^2+0=mgh+\dfrac{1}{2}mv_{2}^2$

$\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=gh+\dfrac{v_{2}^2}{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=9.8\times1.8+\dfrac{(1.4)^2}{2}$

$\dfrac{v_{1}^2}{2}=18.62$

$v_{1}=\sqrt{2\times18.62}$

$v_{1}=6.10\ m/s$

Hence, The minimum speed when she leave the ground is 6.10 m/s.

Describe the energy transformation in a flashlight

anastassius [24]

Answer: When the flashlight is turned on, the chemical energy stored in batteries is converted into electrical energy that flows through wires of flashlight. This electrical energy is then transformed into light and heat energies.
