A.) It opens the circuit so that electric charges do not flow to the timer.

Explanation:

A circuit is said to be "closed" if all its points are connected, so that the  current can flow without interruption, while it is said to be "open" if the circuit is interrupted somewhere so that the current cannot flow through it.

In the movie, the character cuts the wire: this way, he opens the circuit, because the charges (the electons) that carry the current cannot flow through it anymore. Therefore, the correct choice is

A.) It opens the circuit so that electric charges do not flow to the timer.

An object of mass m is dropped from a height h above the surface of a planet of mass M and radius R. Find the speed of the objec
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GMh}{R^{2}}}

Explanation:

mass of object = m

Mass of planet = M

Radius of planet = R

Height = h

Let the speed of the object as it hits the earth's surface is v.

the value of acceleration due to gravity

g = G M / R^2

where, g is the universal gravitational constant.

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2gh

where, u is the initial velocity which is equal to zero.

So, v^{2}=0 + 2 \times \frac{GM}{R^{2}}\times h

v=\sqrt{\frac{2GMh}{R^{2}}}

The average density of living matter on earthâs land areas is 0.10 g/cm2 . what mass of living matter in kilograms would occupy
Margaret [11]
<span>Density is a value for mass, such as kg, divided by a value for volume or area. Density is a physical property of a substance that represents the mass of a certain substance per unit volume or unit area. From the problem statement, we are given the density of the living matter in a particular area and the area. To calculate mass, we simply multiply the area to the density. However, we should remember that the units should be homogeneous or the same and if not, we convert.

Mass = density x area
Mass = 0.10 g / cm^2 (0.125 ha) ( 1x10^8 cm^2 / 1 ha )
Mass = 1250000 g or 1250 kg</span>
