Answer and Explanation:

It is given that bulb A has the half the resistance as B

WHEN THEY ARE CONNECTED IN SERIES : In series circuit we know that current is same in the whole circuit

The power is given by P=i^2R the expression it is clear that the bulb which has more resistance consume more power as current is same, and the bulb which consume more power will be brightest

It is given that resistance of bulb A is half the resistance of B So bulb A will be dimmest in this case

WHEN THEY ARE CONNECTED IN PARALLEL : In parallel circuit voltage is same across the circuit

The power is given by P=\frac{V^2}{R} from the expression it is clear that the bulb which has least resistance will consume more power and so will be brightest

As the resistance of bulb A is less so it will be brightest in this case

1. What net force is required to accelerate a car at a rate of 2 m/s2 if the car has a mass of 3,000 kg?
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Net force required to accelerate the car is 6000 N

Explanation:

Force is calculated by the equation, F = Mass × Acceleration

This is based on Newton's Second Law of Motion which states that the force acting on an object is its mass times the acceleration of the object.

Here, mass = 3000 kg and acceleration = 2 m/s²

⇒ Force = Mass × Acceleration

             = 3000 × 2 = 6000 N

⇒ F = 6000 N

⇒ M = 3000 kg

⇒ a = 2 m/s²

We often see cracks on rocks and stones why
Paul [167]

Answer:

Due to the process of weathering and erosion.

Explanation:

  • As the rocks are made of different forms of minerals they may have an igneous, metamorphic or sedimentary origin. Hence the natural stone surfaces can be made of granite, lime, or even shale.  
  • The process of physical weathering that is called as mechanical weathering of rocks tends to break them apart and leads to the development of crack and small openings.
  • The diurnal exposure of bare rocks to extreme temperatures of day and night leads to onion peeling and slowly with water as an agent of erosion lead to cracks in joints of rocks.

What is the wavelength of a wave with a frequency of 262 hz and a speed of 343 m/s
Tamiku [17]

Heya!!

For calculate wavelength, lets applicate formula:

                                                      \boxed{\lambda = V/f}

                                                   <u>Δ   Being   Δ</u>

                                            f = Frequency = 262 Hz

                                            v = Velocity = 343 m/s

                                             \lambda = Wavelenght = ?

⇒ Let's replace according the formula:

\boxed{\lambda = 343\ m/s / 262\ Hz }

⇒ Resolving

\boxed{\lambda = 1,3 \ m}

Result:

The wavelength is <u>1,3 meters.</u>

Good Luck!!
