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+…

You have two springs that are identical except that spring 1 is stiffer than spring 2, (k1 > k2). On which spring is more wor

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Two springs with spring constant $k_1$ and $k_2$

(a)If they are stretched using the same force

Force $F=k_1x_1=k_2x_2$

where $x_1$ and $x_2$ are the extension in the spring

so $\frac{k_1}{k_2}=\frac{x_2}{x_1}$

therefore $x_2 > x_1$

Work done is given by

$W=F\cdot x$

$W_1=F\cdot x_1$

$W_2=F\cdot x_2$

thus $W_2 > W_1$

(b)If they are stretched the same distance

$\frac{F_1}{F_2}=\frac{k_1}{k_2}$

Thus $F_1 > F_2$

For same extension, work done by Force 1 is more

$W_1 > W_2$

3. How did Kepler's work influence Newton?

Katarina [22]

Johannes Kepler and his laws were a great influence on Isaac Newton. ... Newton used his laws of gravity and motion to derive Kepler's laws and show that the motion of the planets could be explained using mathematics and physics.

What is the angle o in the triangle below? (Hint: Use an inverse trigonometric function.)

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

D. 66.4

Explanation:

So this problem uses SOHCAHTOA or the three trig functions.

Specifically this uses cosine, because it has an adjacent and a hypotenuse.

First you would determine what to do on the calculator, and since the problem is saying so, use the inverse cosine button. This will give you a angle measure from the decimal.

On a calculator, type in cos^-1(6/15). I used 6/15 because cosine is adjacent over hypotenuse. This will give you 66.4, which is D on the answers.
