When a second identical bulb is added in series to a circuit with a single bulb, the resistance of the circuit

Physics
1 answer:
Arturiano [62]4 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Will double

Explanation:

The total resistance of a circuit with n resistors in series is equal to the sum of the individual resistances:

R_T = R_1 + R_2 + ... + R_n

In this problem, we have a circuit with initially one light bulb of resistance R, so the total resistance of the circuit is:

R_T = R

Later, a second identical bulb (so, same resistance R) is added in series to the circuit; so applying the previous formula, we see that the new total resistance is

R_T = R + R = 2 R

So, the resistance has doubled.

A 50.6 g ball of copper has a net charge of 1.6 µc. what fraction of the copper's electrons have been removed? (each copper atom
Fynjy0 [20]
First figure out how many atoms you have with Avogadro's number.  Since there are 63.5 grams/mol and you have 50.6 grams, you have (50.6/63.5)6.022E23=4.7986E23 atoms.  Since there are 29 protons per atom, there are also 29 electrons per atom, so you should have a total of
29*4.7986E23=1.3916E25 electrons.
Since there is a positive charge you know some of these electrons are missing.  How many are missing can be found by dividing the charge you have by the charge on the electron:  1.6E-6/1.6022E-19 = 9.98627E12 electrons are missing.  
Now take the ratio of what is missing to what there should be:
9.98627E12/1.3916E25 = 7.1760873E-13

The muzzle velocity of a rifle bullet is 709 m s−1along the direction of motion. If the bullet weighs 35 g, and the uncertainty
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Uncertainty in position of the bullet is \Delta x=1.07\times 10^{-33}\ m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the bullet, m = 35 g = 0.035 kg

Velocity of bullet, v = 709 m/s

The uncertainty in momentum is 0.20%. The momentum of the bullet is given by :

p=mv

p=0.035\times 709=24.81\ kg-m/s

Uncertainty in momentum is,

\Delta p=0.2\%\ of\ 24.81

\Delta p=0.049

We need to find the uncertainty in position. It can be calculated using Heisenberg uncertainty principal as :

\Delta p.\Delta x\geq \dfrac{h}{4\pi}

\Delta x=\dfrac{h}{4\pi \Delta p}

\Delta x=\dfrac{6.62\times 10^{-34}}{4\pi \times 0.049}

\Delta x=1.07\times 10^{-33}\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
