If everything else is held constant ... the substance from which
the conductor is formed, its cross-sectional area, its temperature
everywhere along its length ... then yes, its resistance will be
directly proportional to its length.

A woman is running around a playground while keeping an eye on her child who is on a swing set. The child is going back and fort
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

(a) 1500 m

(b) 2827.43m

Explanation:

Given that the time for one cycle of the swing is 1 s

The radius of the swing, R= 3.0m

The angle covered, \theta, by each swing is a quarter of the circle. i.e.

\Theta=\frac {\pi}{2}

Speed of running of women =5 m/s.

Time of running = 5 minutes= 5 x 60 secondes= 300 s.

(a) As distance= (speed) x (time)

So, the required distance= 5 x 300 m= 1500 m.

(b) As there are two swings in one cycle, so, the distance covered in one swing is the length of the circular shown in the figure.

As arc length, l= \theta R, where \theta is the angle, in radian, subtended by the arc at the center, and R is the radius of curvature of the arc.

So, the distance covered by the child in 1 swing = \frac {\pi}{2}\times 3 m=\frac{3\pi}{2}m.

In 1 cycle, there are 2 swings, so distance covered in 1 cycle = 3 \pi m.

Now, in 1 second there is 1 cycle, so in 5 minutes there will be 300 cycles.

So, the total distance covered by the child

= 3\pi\times 300 m= 2827.43 m.

The circuit below contains an ideal battery, four identical light bulbs, and a switch. The switch is initially open.
Dafna1 [17]

The question is incomplete! circuit figure is attached below and answer and explanation is provided below.

Answer:

Bulb_A = Bulb_B = Bulb_D and Bulb_C = 0.

Explanation:

What happens when switch is open?

When the switch is open Bulb_C is open circuited meaning that there is no way for the current to flow through it. This path offers infinite resistance to the current therefore, current will try to take a least resistance path that is through Bulb_B.

So eventually, when the switch is open the circuit becomes a simple series circuit with path From battery to Bulb_A to Bulb_B to Bulb_D to battery with Bulb_C = 0.

What happens in a series circuit?

We know that in a series circuit, there is only one path for the current to flow therefore, same current will flow through all the series Bulbs and their brightness will be same. Bulb_A = Bulb_B = Bulb_D

Brightness in a series circuit:

We also know know that in a series circuit, resistance gets summed up and voltage across each Bulb gets shared which results in less power dissipation that's why Bulbs connected in series appear dimmer as compared to when they are connected in parallel.
