If she has a choice and the wiring details are stated on the packaging,
then Janelle should look for lights that are wired in parallel within the
string, and she should avoid lights that are wired in series within the string. 

If a single light in a parallel string fails, then only that one goes out. 
The rest of the lights in the string continue to shimmer and glimmer.

If a single light in a series string fails, then ALL of the lights in that string
go out, and it's a substantial engineering challenge to determine which light
actually failed.

Sample Response: Janelle should buy lights that are wired in parallel. The main advantage of lights wired in parallel is that if one bulb goes out, the rest of the bulbs will remain lit.

fgiga [73]

The speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill is 31 m/s.

<h3>Speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy as follows;

K.E(bottom) = P.E(top)

¹/₂mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • v is the speed of the coater at bottom hill
  • h is the height of the hill
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 49)

v = 31 m/s

Thus, the speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill is 31 m/s.
