Explain Resistor in parallel and series.

patriot [66]

$\sf\huge\underline\blue{Resistor:-}$

$\rightarrow$ A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element.

$\rightarrow$ Resistors reduce the current flow and lower voltage levels within circuits.

$\sf\large\underline\purple{Resistors \:in\: Series:-}$

$\rightarrow$ A circuit is said to be connected in series when the same amount of current flows through the resistors. In such circuits, the voltage across each resistor is different.

$\rightarrow$ In a series connection, if any resistor is broken or a fault occurs, then the entire circuit is turned off. The construction of a series circuit is simpler compared to a parallel circuit.

$\rightarrow$ For the above circuit(attached image-1), the total resistance is given as:

$\sf{R_{total}\: = \:R1 + R2 + ….. + Rn}$

The total resistance of the system is just the total of individual resistances.

$\sf\large\underline\purple{Resistors \:in\: Parallel:-}$

$\rightarrow$ A circuit is said to be connected in parallel when the voltage is the same across the resistors. In such circuits, the current is branched out and recombines when branches meet at a common point.

$\rightarrow$ A resistor or any other component can be connected or disconnected easily without affecting other elements in a parallel circuit.

$\rightarrow$ The figure(attached image -2) above shows ‘n’ number of resistors connected in parallel. The following relation gives the total resistance here

$\sf{\frac{1}{R_{total}}\: = \:\frac{1}{R1} + \frac{1}{R2} + ….. + \frac{1}{Rn}}$

$\rightarrow$ The sum of reciprocals of resistance of an individual resistor is the total reciprocal resistance of the system.

A chemical change can be represented by ____________ changing into _____________ in a ________________.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

I don't know but I explain some of it as best as I can

Explanation:

Substances that start a chemical reaction are called reactants. Substances that are produced in the reaction are called products. Reactants and products can be elements or compounds. Bonds break in the reactants and new bonds form in the products.

n a ballistics test, a potato gun shoots a 0.34 kg potato into a 5.0 kg catching cart. The cart recoils at 3.7 m/s after catchin

Gala2k [10]

The initial velocity of the potato is 54.41 m/s.

The given parameters:

Mass of the potato, m = 0.34 kg
Mass of the cart, m = 5.0 kg
Velocity of the recoil, u₂ = 3.7 m/s

The initial velocity of the potato is calculated by applying the principle of conservation of energy as follows;

$m_1u_1 = m_2 u_2\\\\u_1 = \frac{m_2 u_2}{m_1} \\\\u_1 = \frac{5 \times 3.7}{0.34} \\\\u_1 = 54.41 \ m/s$

Thus, the initial velocity of the potato is 54.41 m/s.
