We repeat the experiment from the video, but this time we connect the wires in parallel rather than in series. Which wire will n

Answer:

Explanation:

The wire which is connected in series will dissipate the most heat.

The reason behind this fact is that, for the wire connected in series, there is only one path for the flow of electrons that's why electron face more opposition and thus more heat dissipation. However, in parallel connecting wires, alternate paths are available for the flow of electrons. That's why the electrons do not face that much opposition as in series case as the path and the flow is divided.

You can understand this concept by the example of traffic on the roads. If there is a single road, then you have to face the more opposition and you will have the less passage to drive through. However if there are parallel roads, then the traffic will got more space to move. It will become easier for them and opposition will be reduced. Hope you understand it :)

What is the total current I flowing through a system with two resistors in parallel with resistances of 2Ω and 5Ω, and a battery
Andrej [43]

Answer:

7A

Explanation:

Current I = potential difference V ÷ Resistance R

I = V/R ........1

The overall resistance of parallel resistors is;

1/Rt = 1/R1 + 1/R2 ........2

Given;

V = 10V

R1 = 2 ohms

R2 = 5 ohms

Substituting the values into equation 2, to calculate the overall resistance;

1/Rt = 1/2 + 1/5

1/Rt = 7/10

Rt = 10/7 ohms

From equation 1, we can solve for the total current;

I = V/Rt = 10/(10/7)

I = 7A

The total current I flowing through a system is 7A

Could the earth have decreased when the astroid hit
Anarel [89]

If an asteroid were to strike land or a shallow body of water, it would eject an enormous amount of dust, ash, and other material into the atmosphere, blocking the radiation from the Sun. This would cause the global temperature to decrease drastically..
