Answer:
Explanation:
Technician A is incorrect as in series circuit the current is the same for all the resistors and if one bulb fails in the path then the circuit is incomplete and therefore no flow of current.
Technician B is correct as in parallel circuit there are multiple paths for current through which it can pass and malfunctioning of one resistor does not affect the other.
Answer:
It increases.
Explanation:
If a force acts in the same direction as the object's motion, then the force speeds the object up. Either way, a force will change the velocity of an object. And if the velocity of the object is changed, then the momentum of the object is changed.
Great question !
The rate at which an object covers distance, without worrying
about the direction it's moving, is the object's SPEED .
When the direction is also given, then you have the object's VELOCITY.
This question is important. It gives us a chance to point out that
"velocity" is not just a fancy word for speed that you use when you
want to sound smart. There's actually an important difference between
'speed' and 'velocity'.
<span>Let F be the force of gravity, G be the gravitational constant, M be the mass of the earth, m your mass and r the radius of the earth, then:
F = G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2))
The above expression gives the force that you feel on the earth's surface, as it is today!
Let us now double the mass of the earth and decrease its diameter to half its original size.
This is the same as replacing M with 2M and r with r/2.
Now the gravitational force (F' ) on the new earth's surface is given by:
F' = G(2Mm / (4(pi)(r/2)^2)) = 2G(Mm / ((1/4)*4(pi)*r^2)) = 8G(Mm / (4(pi)*r^2)) = 8F
So:
F' = 8F
This implies that the force that you would feel pulling you down (your weight) would increase by 800%!
You would be 8 times heavier on this "new" earth!</span>
