A Series Circuit can be described as:

A circuit in which:

1.Only ONE path for current to flow in a closed circuit
2.Current remains the SAME in all parts of the circuit
3.Voltage is DIFFERENT across each each component

AND

A Parallel Circuit can be described as:

A circuit in which:

1.Current is DIFFERENT through each component of the circuit (according to their resistance values)
2.Voltage remains the same across each component of the circuit
3.total power supplied is the sum of powers consumed in each circuit components like: P_Total=P_1+P_2+…

The primary purpose of a switch in a circuit is to

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

See below

Explanation:

A switch regulates the transparency and closeness of an electrical circuit. This enables the current flow of the circuit to be regulated (not even possible to reach it and manually sever the wires). Switches are important components of any circuit that involve an input system or control

Hope this helps.

To practice Problem-Solving Strategy 16.1 Standing waves. An air-filled pipe is found to have successive harmonics at 800 HzHz ,

bazaltina [42]

Answer:

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm

Explanation:

given data

harmonic frequency f1 = 800 Hz

harmonic frequency f2 = 1120 Hz

harmonic frequency f3 = 1440 Hz

solution

first we get here fundamental frequency that is express as

2F = f2 - f1 ...............1

put here value

2F = 1120 - 800

F = 160 Hz

and

Wavelength is express as

Wavelength = Speed ÷ Fundamental frequency ................2

here speed of waves in air = 340 m/s

so put here value

Wavelength =340 ÷ 160

Wavelength = 2.125 m

Length of the pipe will be

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × wavelength ......................3

put here value

Length of the pipe = 0.25 × 2.125

Length of the pipe = 0.53125 m

Length of the pipe = 53.125 cm

What happens to a day of light that slows down when it hits a new medium at an angle

Anika [276]

Light travels as transverse waves and faster than sound. It can be reflected, refracted and dispersed. Ray diagrams show what happens to light in mirrors and lenses. Eyes and cameras detect light.

Question 2 (1 point)

eduard

Answer: Blake may have a decreased chance of disease.

Explanation:

Research has shown that on average, a person who engages in more physical activity will live longer than a person who does not with one reason for this being that engaging in physical activity helps reduce the risk of diseases such as; heart disease, diabetes, and many forms of cancer.

Obesity (risk factor) and high blood pressure are also reduced by engaging in physical activity.
