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

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.

Jake is helping Fin push a box at a constant velocity up an incline that makes an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal by applyin

andre [41]

Given data

The angle of inclination of the plane is theta = 30 degree

The applied force in the inclined plane is F = 94 N

The distance moved in the inclined plane is d = 2.30 m

The coefficient of kinetic friction is u_k = 0.280

The free-body diagram of the above configuration is shown below:

Here, the normal reaction force on the box is N, the acceleration due to gravity is denoted as g, the friction force on the box is F_f, and the mass of the box is denoted as m.

(a)

The expression for the work done by the pushing force is given as:

$W=Fd$

Substitute the value in the above equation.

$\begin{gathered} W=94\text{ N}\times2.30\text{ m} \\ W=216.2\text{ J} \end{gathered}$

Thus, the work done by the pushing force is 216.2 J.

(b)

The box is moving at the constant velocity, therefore, the pushing force will be equal to the frictional force and the component of the gravitational force in the inclined plane.
