Why will the bulb remain off if the switch is open

Physics
1 answer:
Sladkaya [172]3 years ago
5 0
That's because if it's a series circuit, the current only has one path to go through. If the switch is off, or the wire is broken, the current can't travel anywhere and the bulb will remain off.
Hope this helps!

A flashlight contains a battery of two cells in series, with a bulb of resistance 12 Ohms. The internal resistance of each cell
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

1.5024

Explanation:

Draw a diagram. Put the two cells in series. Now draw 3 resistors. Two of them equal 0.26 ohms each. The third one is the lightbulb which is 12 ohms.

R = 0.26 + 0.26 + 12 = 12.52

The bulb has a voltage of 2.88 volts across it. You can get the current from that.

i = E / R

i = 2.88 / 12 =

i = 0.24 amps.

Now you can get the voltage drop across the two cells.

E = ?

R = 0.26

i = 0.24 amps

E = 0.26 * 0.24

E = 0. 0624

Finally divide the 2.88 by 2 to get 1.44

Each cell has an emf of 1.44 + 0.0624 = 1.5024

A uniform solid disk of mass 5.00 kg and diameter 47.0 cm starts from rest and rolls without slipping down a 40.0 ∘ incline that
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The speed it reaches the bottom is

v=6.51m/s

Explanation:

Given: m=5.0kg, r=47cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.47m

Using the conservation of energy theorem

U_i=K_E+K_{ER}

m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^2+\frac{1}{2}*I*w^2

v=r*w, I=\frac{1}{2}*m*r^2

m*g*h=\frac{1}{2}*m*(r*w)^2 +\frac{1}{2}*[\frac{1}{2} *m*r^2]*w^2

m*g*h=\frac{3}{4}*m*r^2*w^2

g*h=\frac{3}{4}*r^2*w^2

Solve to w'

w^2=\frac{4*g*h}{3*r^2}

h=x*sin(30)=6.5m*sin(30)=3.25m

w=\sqrt{\frac{4*9.8m/s^2*3.25m}{3*(0.235m)^2}}

w=27.74rad/s

v=27.74rad/s*0.235m=6.51m/s

Part A A uniform solid disk of radius 1.60 m and mass 2.30 kg rolls without slipping to the bottom of an inclined plane. If the
kifflom [539]

Answer:

Height will be 3.8971 m        

Explanation:

We have given that radius of the solid r = 1.60 m

Mass of the solid disk m = 2.30 kg

Angular velocity \omega =4.46rad/sec

Moment of inertia is given by I=\frac{1}{2}mr^2

Transnational Kinetic energy is given by KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 as we know that v = v=\omega r

So KE=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2

Rotational kinetic energy is given by KE_{ROTATIONAL}=\frac{1}{2}I\omega ^2=\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{1}{2}mr^2 \right )\omega ^2=\frac{1}{4}m(r\omega )^2

Potential energy is given by mgh

According to energy conservation

mgh=\frac{1}{2}m(\omega r)^2+\frac{1}{4}m(\omega r)^2

h=\frac{3r^2\omega ^2}{4g}=\frac{3\times 1.60^2\times 4.46^2}{4\times 9.8}=3.8971m
