What kind of circuit is the one shown below?
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

The given circuit diagram shows parallel circuit.

Explanation:

In this circuit diagram two bulbs are connected in parallel combination because current flows from the battery gets bifurcated at the junction. Thus, two bulbs are connected in parallel combination.

This parallel combinations of bulbs then connected to the battery given in the diagram. So, the combinations of bulbs are connected in parallel combinations with the battery.

Hence, both bulbs and battery are connected in parallel combinations with each other.

The circuit diagram shown in figure is parallel.

Which of the following would decrease the magnetic field around a wire?
shusha [124]
The correct answer is
<span>A. decreasing the current

In fact, the magnetic field produced by a current carrying wire is given by
</span>B(r) =  \frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}
<span>where
</span>\mu_0 is the vacuum permeability
<span>I is the current in the wire
r is the distance from the wire at which the field is calculated

We see from the formula that the intensity of the field, B, is directly proportional to the current I, so if the current decreases, the magnetic field strength B decreases as well.</span>

The rectangular boat shown below has base dimensions 10.0 cm × 8.0 cm. Each cube has a mass of 40 g, and the liquid in the tank
Paladinen [302]

When boat is sunk into the liquid the net buoyancy on the boat is counterbalanced by weight of the boat

So here weight of the boat = Buoyancy force

let say boat is sunk by distance "h"

now we can say

F_b = \rho * V * g

F_b = 1000*0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

now by above force balance equation we can write

m*g = F_b

0.040 * 9.8 = 1000 * 0.10 * 0.08 * h * 9.8

0.040 = 8h

h = 5 * 10^{-3} m

so boat will sunk by total 5 mm distance
