Current is constant at all points in a parallel circuit. True False

Physics
1 answer:
Sergio [31]3 years ago
5 0
This is false. Current is the speed of the charge, 1 amp of current is 1 coulomb per second. So you can imagine the current of a circuit as the current of a river. In a parallel circuit, the river breaks into two separate streams. Some of the water goes down one river, some goes down the other. However, the total amount of water/coulombs never changes. This means that some of the total current will go down one river, and one the other. However, with less coulombs now the current will decrease. 

Long story short, since there are two paths, the charge will split and depending on the resistance of each parallel stream a different amount of charge will go down each branch.

Hang two sheets of paper vertically from adjacent corners. The sheets should be parallel and close to each other with a small ga
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

a. The sheets move toward each other and the gap narrows.

Explanation:

This exercise is related to fluid mechanics, when blowing between the two sheets, we can apply Bernoulli's equation, where the index 2 is the space between the two sheets

       P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ g v₂² + ρ g y²

if the two leaves are at the same height

                      y₁ = y₂

 whereby

         P₁ + ½ ρ g v₁² = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂²

for the air velocity between the leaves let us use the continuity equation

        A₁ v₁ = A₂ v₂

the area between the leaves is less than the external area, so the air speed must increase. If we use this in Bernoulli's equation, increasing the speed 2 (between the leaves) to maintain equality the pressure must decrease.

If the pressure decreases, the blades should move closer

What is a disadvantage of using nuclear power to produce electricity?
lesya [120]

Answer:

The further implementations of nuclear power are limited because although nuclear energy does not produce CO2 the way fossil fuels do, there is still a toxic byproduct produced from uranium-fueled nuclear cycles: radioactive fission waste.
