Answer:
A- series B- parallel
Explanation:
In order to measure current in a circuit, the multi-meter needs to be placed in series with the circuit while when measuring voltage, the multi-meter needs to be placed in parallel with the circuit.
It should be however noted that the same current flows in a series connected circuit and same voltage flows through loads connected in parallel. The ammeter is placed in series with the load to ensure that same value of currents is flowing in both the ammeter and loads(since same current flows in series connected circuit elements and all the amount of voltage must be made to appear on the load for the current to be measured accurately.
Voltmeter is connected in parallel to the load due to high value of current possessed by the voltmeter. The parallel connection will cause the current flowing through the voltmeter to reduce to zero so that it won't have effect (increase) on the amount of current initially on the resistor thereby measuring the exact amount of voltage on the load.
Answer: v = 880m/s
Explanation: The length of a string is related to the wavelength of sound passing through the string at the fundamental frequency is given as
L = λ/2 where L = length of string and λ = wavelength.
But L = 1m
1 = λ/2
λ = 2m.
But the frequency at fundamental is 440Hz and
V = fλ
Hence
v = 440 * 2
v = 880m/s

D) full moon
Answer:
Approximately
.
Assumption: the ball dropped with no initial velocity, and that the air resistance on this ball is negligible.
Explanation:
Assume the air resistance on the ball is negligible. Because of gravity, the ball should accelerate downwards at a constant
near the surface of the earth.
For an object that is accelerating constantly,
,
where
is the initial velocity of the object,
is the final velocity of the object.
is its acceleration, and
is its displacement.
In this case,
is the same as the change in the ball's height:
. By assumption, this ball was dropped with no initial velocity. As a result,
. Since the ball is accelerating due to gravity,
.
.
In this case,
would be the velocity of the ball just before it hits the ground. Solve for
.
.
