In a parallel circuit is the current constant throughout the circuit or does it vary?

In a parallel circuit the current is NOT constant throughout the circuit. Current that goes through each resistor or device depends on the resistance. The factor that does stay constant however is the voltage. In a parallel circuit, voltage that is constant.

A spring stretches 1.68cm vertically when a 2.50kg object is suspended from it.Find the distance (in cm) the spring stretches if
Llana [10]

Answer:

2.96 cm

Explanation:

By Hook's law

Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extension(d)

 F = k × d

Force is the weight of the object, F = W = mg

So we get, mg = kd ⇒ m ∝ d

                                   2.5 ∝ 1.68  --------------(1)

                                   4.4 ∝ d'      --------------(2)

From (1) & (2),     4.4/2.5 = d'/1.68

                                   d' = 2.96 cm ⇒ the required extension.

why is The sum of two vectors has the smallest magnitude when the angle between these two vectors is 180t
Effectus [21]

Answer:

  C = A - B

Explanation:

The addition of vectors takes into account the magnitude of each vector and its direction, so when adding two vectors, the result depends on the direction of the vectors.

* If the vectors have the same direction the result is maximum

            C = A + A

* if the vectors have 90 between them, the magnitude of the result is given by the Pythagorean Theorem

            C = √(A² + B²)

* if the vectors have 180º between them the result is minimal

            C = A - B

We can also perform this sum graphically, where the resulting vector goes from the origin of the first vector to the tip of the last one, it can clearly be seen that when the vectors are antiparallel (180º angle) the magnitude is minimal
