Describe an application where a parallel circuit might work better than a series circuit

Physics
1 answer:
babunello [35]3 years ago
7 0
In rooms where there are multiple lights, a parallel circuit is better.

In a series circuit, if one light broke, all of the lights would turn off, as the circuit would be broken.

However, in parallel, if one bulb broke, the circuit could still be complete through the other bulbs, so they will stay on.

. A vertical electric field is set up in space to compensate for the gravitational force on a point charge. What is the required
Delicious77 [7]

(a) The required magnitude of the electric field when the point charge is an electron is 5.57 x 10⁻¹¹ N/C.

(b) The required magnitude of the electric field when the point charge is an proton is 1.02 x 10⁻⁷ N/C.

<h3>Magnitude of electric field </h3>

The magnitude of electric field is given by the following equation.

F = qE

But F = mg

mg = qE

E = mg/q

where;

  • E is the electric field
  • m is mass of the particle
  • g is acceleration due to gravity
  • q is charge of the particle
<h3>For an electron</h3>

E = (9.11 x 10⁻³¹ x 9.8)/(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)

E = 5.57 x 10⁻¹¹ N/C

<h3>For proton</h3>

E = (1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ x 9.8)/(1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹)

E = 1.02 x 10⁻⁷ N/C

Thus, the required vertical electric field is greater when the charge is proton.

PART ONE
Lina20 [59]

Explanation:

Make a table, listing the x and y coordinates of each square's center of gravity and its mass.  Multiply the coordinates by the mass, add the results for each x and y, then divide by the total mass.

\left\begin{array}{ccccc}x&y&m&xm&ym\\\frac{a}{2} &\frac{a}{2} &10&5a&5a\\\frac{3a}{2}&\frac{a}{2}&70&105a&35a\\\frac{a}{2}&\frac{3a}{2}&80&40a&120a\\\frac{3a}{2}&\frac{3a}{2}&50&75a&75a\\&\sum&210&225a&235a\\&&Avg&\frac{15a}{14}&\frac{47a}{42}\end{array}\right

The x-coordinate of the center of gravity is 15/14 a.

The y-coordinate of the center of gravity is 47/42 a.
