How does a parallel circuit differ from a series circuit?

1 answer:

5 0

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. A parallel circuit differ from a series circuit in a sense that a <span>series circuit has one path for electrons, but a parallel circuit has more than one path. In a parallel circuit there two or more paths for current to flow while a series circuit only has one.</span>

A thin, uniform rod is bent into a square of side length a. If the total mass is M, find the moment of inertia about an axis thr

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The moment of inertia about an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the square is

$I_s = \frac{Ma^2}{3}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The length of one side of the square is $a$

The total mass of the square is $M$

Generally the mass of one size of the square is mathematically evaluated as

$m_1 = \frac{M}{4}$

Generally the moment of inertia of one side of the square is mathematically represented as

$I_g = \frac{1}{12} * m_1 * a^2$

Generally given that $m_1 = m_2 = m_3 = m_4 = m$ it means that this moment inertia evaluated above apply to every side of the square

Now substituting for $m_1$

$I _g= \frac{1}{12} * \frac{M}{4} * a^2$

Now according to parallel-axis theorem the moment of inertia of one side of the square about an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the square is mathematically represented as

$I_a = I_g + m [\frac{q}{2} ]^2$

=> $I_a = I_g + {\frac{M}{4} }* [\frac{q}{2} ]^2$

substituting for $I_g$

=> $I_a = \frac{1}{12} * \frac{M}{4} * a^2 + {\frac{M}{4} }* [\frac{q}{2} ]^2$

=> $I_a = \frac{Ma^2}{48} + \frac{Ma^2}{16}$

=> $I_a = \frac{Ma^2}{12}$

Generally the moment of inertia of the square about an axis through the center and perpendicular to the plane of the square is mathematically represented as

$I_s = 4 * I_a$

=> $I_s = 4 * \frac{Ma^2}{12}$

=> $I_s = \frac{Ma^2}{3}$

A pendulum is made of a small sphere of mass 0.250 kg attached to a lightweight string 1.20 m in length. As the pendulum swings

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

0.833 N

Explanation:

Formula for Kinetic Energy $E_k = \frac{mv^2}{2}$

Formula for Potential Energy $E_p = mgy$

First we need to find the vertical distance between the maximum-angle position and the pendulum lowest point:

Using the swinging point as the reference, the vertical distance from the maximum-angle (34 degree) position to the swinging point is:

$L * cos(34^o) = 1.2cos(34^o) = 1.2*0.83 = 0.995 \approx 1 m$

At the lowest position, pendulum is at string length to the swinging point, which is 1.2 m. Therefore, the vertical distance between the maximum-angle position and the pendulum lowest point would be

y = 1.2 - 1 = 0.2 m.

As the pendulum is traveling from the maximum-angle position to the lowest point position, its potential energy would be converted to the kinetic energy.

By law of energy conservation:

$E_k = E_p$
