A circuit contains two light bulbs connected in parallel. What would happen to the brightness of each light bulb if two more lig
laila [671]

Answer;

C. The brightness of each bulb would remain the same even though the total resistance of the circuit would decrease.

Explanation;

-If light bulbs are connected in parallel to a voltage source, the brightness of the individual bulbs remains more-or-less constant as more and more bulbs are added to the circuit.

-The current increases as more bulbs are added to the circuit and the overall resistance decreases. In addition, if one bulb is removed from the circuit the other bulbs do not go out. Each bulb is independently linked to the voltage source

What is the momentum of an object in splace
forsale [732]

Answer:

The total momentum of the universe is always the same and is equal to zero. The total momentum of an isolated system never changes. Momentum can be transferred from one body to another.

Momentum quantifies how likely an object is to stay in motion. Momentum can also be explained using the equation, p=mv, where p is equal to momentum, m is equal to mass, and v is equal to velocity.
