<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct answer is</u><u> the current will decrease by a factor proportional to the number of resistors. </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

In a parallel circuit, when all the resistors are in parallel to the power supply, the voltage across all the branches in parallel is the same but the current decreases as we add more load. If each current path P has different resistances, highest current flows through the path which has the least resistance and hence current decreases proportionally.

A clothes dryer in a home draws a current of 10 amps when connected on a special 220-volts household circuit.what is the resista

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

22Ω

Explanation:

if V ⇒ voltage

I ⇒ current

R ⇒ resistance

V = IR

220 = 10 x R

220 / 10 = R

22 = R

A jet lands with a speed of 100 m/s and can accelerate uniformly at a rate of -5.0 m/s^2 as it comes to rest. What is the minimu

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

A ) 1000 m.

Explanation:

Here initial velocity u = 100 m /s

Final velocity v = 0

Acceleration a = -5 ms⁻²

Distance travelled = S

v² = u² + 2aS

0 = (100)² -2 x 5 S

S = 10000/ 10

=1000 m.
