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 :)

A pulled tablecloth exerts a frictional force of 0.6 n on a plate with a mass of 0.4 kg. what is the acceleration of the plate?
Ludmilka [50]
The formula for acceleration is a = F/m; Where: F = force; m = mass
Given: F = .6n; m = .4kg; a = ?
a = F/m
  = .6/.4
  = 1.5

Therefore, the acceleration of the plate is 1.5 m/s^2

If something is traveling at 20 m/s constant velocity, is it in equilibrium? If a projectile is launched at a velocity of 20 m/s
Irina18 [472]

If something is traveling at 20 m/s constant speed AND its direction isn't changing, then its velocity is constant.  Another way to say that is: Its acceleration is zero.  Zero acceleration means zero NET force acting on the object, or a group of BALANCED forces acting on it, also called EQUILIBRIUM.  The required answer is: YES.

If a real projectile is launched, the force of gravity acts on it vertically downward.  There's no upward force acting on it to balance gravity.  Therefore, the forces on the projectile are NOT balanced, there IS a net vertical force on it, and it's NOT in equilibrium.  Too bad.
