Imagine you’re an engineer making a string of battery powered holiday lights. If a bulb burns out current cannot flow through th

at bulb any linger (like if the wire at the bulb had been cut) . Figure out how to hook up 2 light bulbs and a battery so that when one bulb burns out (or disconnected) the other stays lit.

Answer:

The 2 light bulbs can be connected in parallel to each other to avoid disconnection when one bulb burns out.

Explanation:

The parallel connection is required not series. A parallel connection is the connection of electronic components (e.g bulbs, LED, resistors, capacitors etc) in such a way that the same voltage is supplied across the ends of the components.  While in a series connection, the components are connected to each other end-to-end.

As regard the question, parallel connection ensures that the brightness any of the bulbs is not affected with respect to the other bulbs. And other bulbs continue to function when any burns out. The 2 light bulbs should be connected in parallel to the baterry to avoid disconnection of all the bulbs.

At what time of day would you be most likely to find that the air over water is significantly warmer than the air over land near
Brut [27]

This would happen later at night or early in the morning.

The reason being land becomes warm and cold quicker than the water because of the heat capacity. So during the day water warms up because of sunlight but at night the land becomes a lot cooler as compared to the water which is still war. So the air over water is significantly warmer than the air over land.

Answer:

Cools ; size

Explanation:

The rate at which magma cools determines the size of the crystals in the new rock. Igneous rocks are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten magma which finds its way to the surface or depth of very low pressure beneath the surface. This place or depth of cooling of magma affects the cooling rate and hence the size of the crystals formed. Igneous rocks formed at depths below the surface have more time to cool and allows more time for Crystal growth and hence produce coarse grained crystal grains called Intrusive igneous rocks which have significantly larger crystals than those formed on the surface which cools rapidly and allowing very little time for crystal growth giving rise to the formation of fine grained crystals and are called extrusive igneous rocks.
