When resistors are connected in series, they act like
a single resistor whose resistance is their sum. 

100 ohms and 400 ohms, connected in series, look like
a single resistor of 500 ohms.

           Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

                        = (60 volts) / (500 ohms) = 0.12 A.

Current is measured by connecting a meter in series
with an energized component.  In other words, a break
is made in the circuit, the meter is connected in the break,
and the current to be measured literally flows through the meter.</span>

You are riding a bicycle home from school. You average 5 meters per second and you are headed south.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

(OD) Velocity

Explanation:

Here, the rider is moving with a steady speed (5 m/s) towards south. In this example, we have magnitude as well as direction. Since velocity is a vector quantity, thus we can determine the velocity of the rider.

A trapeze artist swings in simple harmonic motion with a period of 3.8 s.
pogonyaev
As we know that time period of simple pendulum is given as

T = 2π √L/g

here we know that

T = 3.8 s

now from above equation we know that

T² = 4π² (L/g)

now on rearranging the above equation we will have

L = gT² / 4π²

now plug in all data into it

L = (9.8) (3.8)² / (4) (3.14)²

so the length of the cable must be 3.6 m

Please help :/ The same motor is used in rockets with different masses. The rockets have different accelerations. According to N
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

1. As rocket mass increases, acceleration decreases.

2. The inverse of the mass of the boat.

Explanation:

1. Newton's second law of motion states;

         F = ma

where F is the force applied, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

Therefore, increasing the mass of a rocket increases its weight which would reduce its acceleration provided that the force is constant. Thus, as rocket mass increases, acceleration decreases.

2. The slope of the graph can be expressed as;

From Newton's second law,

F = ma

Slope = (Δa) ÷ (ΔF)

Slope = \frac{a}{F}

⇒ \frac{1}{m} = \frac{a}{F}

Therefore, the slope of the graph is the reciprocal of the mass of the boat.
