What happen to the bulb when it is in series connection?

2 answers:

8 0

If the bulb is in series with something else, then . . .

-- The brightness of the bulb depends on the other device in the circuit.

-- If the other device is designed to use less power than the bulb, then the
other device gets more power than the bulb gets.

-- If the other device is designed to use more power than the bulb, then the
other device gets less power than the bulb gets.

-- If the other device is removed from the circuit, then the bulb doesn't light at all.

This description of the often-screwy behavior of a series circuit may partly explain
why the electric service in your home is not a series circuit.

Nothing special happens. It just lights up normally. A series circuit is a normal circuit, the different one is a parallel circuit.

An AC generator with a variable frequency and an RMS voltage output of 120 Volts is connected in series to a 3.1 μF Capacitor an

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V

Explanation:

Capacitor: A capacitor is an electrical device that has the ability to store electrical charges in an electrical circuit. It is expressed in Farad (F)

Resistor: A resistor is an electrical device that oppose the flow of electric current in a circuit. It is expressed in ohms (Ω)

RMS Voltage : RMS voltage value of an alternating voltage is defined as that value of steady voltage which would dissipate heat at the same rate in a given resistance

Since the it is a series circuit, the total voltage is divided across the resistance and the capacitor.

Vt = V₁ + V₂...........................Equation 1

Where Vt = total Rms voltage = 120 V , V₁ = Rms voltage across the Capacitor = 92 V, V₂ = Rms voltage across the resistor.

Making V₂ the subject of the equation in equation 1 above,

V₂ = Vt - V₁ = 120 - 92

V₂ = 28 V.

The RMS voltage across the resistor = 28 V

A meter stick moves parallel to its axis with speed of 0.96 c relative to you. What would you measure for the length of the stic

Fed [463]

Answer:

The length of the stick is 0.28 m.

The time the stick take to move is 0.97 ns.

Explanation:

Given that,

Relative speed of stick v= 0.96 c

Speed of light $c= 2.99793\times10^{8}\ m/s$

Proper length of stick = 1 m

We need to calculate the length of the stick

Using formula of length

$\Delta l=\Delta l_{0}\sqrt{(1-\dfrac{v^2}{c^2})}$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta l=1\sqrt{1-\dfrac{(0.96)^2c^2}{c^2}}$

$\Delta l=1\sqrt{1-(0.96)^2}$

$\Delta l=0.28\ m$

We need to calculate the time the stick take to move

Using formula of time

$t=\dfrac{\Delta l}{v}$

Put the value into the formula

$t=\dfrac{0.28}{0.96\times(2.99793\times10^{8})}$

$t=9.72\times10^{-10}\ sec$

$t=0.97\ ns$

Hence, The length of the stick is 0.28 m.

The time the stick take to move is 0.97 ns.

A sound source emits 20.0 W of acoustical power spread equally in all directions. The threshold of hearing is 1.0 × 10-12 W/m2.

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

0.0018 W/m²

Explanation:

Power and intensity are related as:

$I=\frac{P}{4\pi r^2}$

P= 20.0 W (given)

r = 30.0 m (given)

$I=\frac{20.0}{4\pi(30.0)^2}=0.0018 W/m^2$

Intensity in decibels:

$I(dB)=10log\frac{I}{I_o}\\=10log\frac{0.0018}{10^{-12}}=92.5 dB$

A man stands on his balcony, 130 feet above the ground. He looks at the ground, with his sight line forming an angle of 70° with

jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

d = 380 feet

Explanation:

Height of man = perpendicular= 130 feet

Angle of depression = ∅ = 70 °

distance to bus stop from man = hypotenuse = d = 130 sec∅

As sec ∅ = 1 / cos∅

so d = 130 sec∅ or d = 130 / cos∅

d = 130 / cos(70°)

d = 380 feet
