Compared with the amount of current in the filament of a lamp, the amount of current in the connecting wire is

D. the same.

As per the rule, the amount of current in devices connected in series is equal. here in the given situation , the wire is in series with the filament. that is the reason that the current in filament and wire is same.

hence the correct choice is D)

Answer:

D. the same.

Explanation:

The amount od current that flows through the filament of a lamp is actually the same that it would be compared with the amount of current that is flowing though the connecting wire, unless the lamp has a kind of resitor where it downgrades the amount of current befor it passes through the filament of the lamp, the currecnt should be the same.

Which are examples of perfectly in elastic collisions
sweet [91]
Typical examples of inelastic collision are between cars, airlines, trains, etc.
For instance, when two trains collide, the kinetic energy of each train is transformed into heat, which explains why, most of the times, there is a fire after a collision. However, the momentum of the two trains that are involved in the collision remains unaffected. So, the trains collide with all their speed, maintaining their momentum, yet their kinetic energy is transformed into heat energy.
Another way to explain a train or a car collision is this: when the two trains or cars collide, they stick together while slowing down. They slow down because their kinetic energy is gradually lost. Still, they collide because they conserve their momentum.

A hydraulic machine has a small piston and a larger piston. Explain how a hydraulic machine multiplies force? What happens to th
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pressure is equal to the force divided by the area on which it acts. Since the smaller piston has less area so from less force also we can get more efficiency in work. And according to the Pascal's principle, in a hydraulic system, pressure exerted on a piston produces an equal increase in pressure on another piston in the system. Thus by applying little force in the smaller piston, we can get same force from larger piston too. A hydraulic machine magnifies force.

A flare is launched from a life raft with an initial velocity of 192 ft/sec. How many seconds will it take for the flare to retu
DIA [1.3K]

We use the formula,

h= ut- 16 t^2

Here, h is the  variable  represents the height of the flare  in feet when it returns to the sea so, h = 0 and u is the initial velocity of the flare, in feet per second and its value of 192 ft/sec.

Substituting these values in above equation, we get

0 = 192 t - 16 t^2  \\\\ 16 t( 12 - t ) =0 \\\\ t = 12 s.

Here, t= 0 neglect because it is  the time when the flare is launched.

Thus, flare return to the sea in 12 s.

A pressure that will support a column of Hg to a height of 256 mm would support a column of water to what height? The density of
Paul [167]

Answer:

<em>The height of water in the column = 348.14 cm</em>

Explanation:

<em>Pressure:</em><em>This is defined as the ratio of the force acting normally ( perpendicular) to the area of surface in contact. The S.I unit of  pressure is N/m²</em>

<em>p = Dgh............... Equation 1</em>

<em>Where p = pressure, D = density, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.</em>

<em>From the question, the same pressure will support the column of mercury and water.</em>

<em>p₁ = p₂</em>

<em>Where p₁ = pressure of mercury, p₂ = pressure of water</em>

D₁gh₁ = D₂gh₂.................. Equation 2

making h₂ the subject of equation 2

h₂ = D₁gh/D₂g............... Equation 3

Where D₁ and D₂ = Density of mercury and water respectively, h₁ and h₂ = height of mercury and water respectively

Given: D₁ = 13.6 g/cm³, D₂ = 1.00 g/cm³, h₁ = 256 mm = 25.6 cm.

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substituting these values into Equation 3,

h₂ = (13.6×9.8×25.6)/1×9.8

<em>h₂ = 348.14 cm</em>

<em>The height of water in the column = 348.14 cm</em>
