Answer:

series

Explanation:

In a series circuit all the components are attached to one branch, so that if one component fails, all the others stop working. In a parallel circuit, however, the components are wired in separate branches, so that even if one branch fails, the rest are not disrupted.

Series circuit.. If one bulb burns out in a series circuit, then this will break the circuit. This is because every device in a series circuit must work properly for the circuit to be complete. Unlike in a parallel circuit - where each light has its own circuit - so even if one bulb burns out, the remaining bulbs will still function.

Four particles are in a 2-d plane with masses, x- and y- positions, and x- and y- velocities as given in the table below: what i

Arte-miy333 [17]

I attached the picture of the missing table.
Center of mass is the point such that if you apply force to it, the system would move without rotating.
We can use following formula to calculate the center of mass:
$R=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_ir_i$
Where M is the sum of the masses of all particles.
Part 1
To calculate the x coordinate of the center of mass we will use this formula:
$R_x=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_ix_i$
I will do all the calculations in the google sheet that I will share with you.
For the x coordinate of the center of mass we get:
$R_x=0.96m$
Part 2
To calculate the y coordinate of the center of mass we will use this formula:
$R_y=\frac{1}{M}\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iy_i$
I will do all the calculations in the google sheet that I will share with you.
For the x coordinate of the center of mass we get:
$R_y=-0.84m$
Part 3
We will calculate speed along x and y-axis separately and then will add them together.
$v_x=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iv_x_i}{M}$
$v_y=\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{n=i}m_iv_y_i}{M}$
Total velocity is:
$v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}$
Once we calculate velocities we get:
$v_x=-1.08\frac{m}{s}\\ v_y=-0.03\frac{m}{s}\\ v=\sqrt{(-1.08)^2+(-0.03)^2}=1.08\frac{m}{s}$
Part 4
Because origin is left to our center of mass(please see the attached picture) placing fifth mass in the origin would move the center of mass to the left along the x-axis.
Part 5
If you place fifth mass in the center of the mass nothing would change. The center of mass would stay in the same place.

A blue car pulls away from a red stop-light just after it has turned green with a constant acceleration of 0.2 m/s2. A green car

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

After 15 seconds, the green car will catch up with the blue car

Explanation:

Let the time for the green car to catch up with the blue car be T

When the green car catches up to the blue car, the distances covered by each car after time T will be equal. Also, their velocities at that instant will be equal

Distance covered by blue car after time T is given by: s = ut + 0.5 at²

Where u = 0, a = 0.2 m/s², t = T

S = 0.5 × 0.2 × T² = 0.1 T²

Velocity of blue car, v = u+ at

v = 0.2T

Distance covered by green car at T is given as: S = Velocity × time

Where v = 0.2T, t = T - 7.5 (since the blue car started 7.5 seconds earlier)

S = 0.2T (T - 7.5)

S = 0.2 T² - 1.5T

Equating the distance covered by the two cars

0.2T² - 1.5T = 0.1T²

0.1T² - 1.5T = 0

T(0.1T - 1.5) = 0

T = 0 or

T = 1.5/0.1 = 15 secs

Therefore, after 15 seconds, the green car will catch up with the blue car

To analyze the motion of a body that is traveling along a curved path, to determine the body's acceleration, velocity, and posit

DiKsa [7]

To solve this problem we will apply the kinematic equations of linear motion and centripetal motion. For this purpose we will be guided by the definitions of centripetal acceleration to relate it to the tangential velocity. With these equations we will also relate the linear velocity for which we will find the points determined by the statement. Our values are given as
