At one point in the circuit, there is an LED and a resistor in parallel with one another. If you measure the voltage drop across

the LED as 2.1 V and the current through the LED as 20 mA, you know: Group of answer choices a) The current through the resistor is 20 mA b) The voltage drop across the resistor is 2.1 V and its current is 20 mA c) The voltage drop across the resistor is 2.1 V nothing about the current through or voltage drop across the resistor.

Answer:

C. The voltage drop across the resistor is 2.1V and nothing about the current through the resistor.

Explanation:

When connected in parallel, voltage across the resistances are the same. So if 2.1V was dropped across the LED then 2.1V was also dropped across the resistor. However, this tells us nothing about the current through the resistor. We can find the current across the resistor if we know the resistance of the resistor, but that's about it.

If it were a series connection, then the current would have been the same, but the voltage drop were another story.

A tennis ball is thrown into
liraira [26]

Answer:

Velocity (v) is a vector quantity that measures displacement (or change in position, Δs) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation v = Δs/Δt. Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.

Choose the statement that is a misconception about a system in chemical equilibrium.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

There are equal parts reactants and products.

Explanation:

When a system is in a chemical equilibrium, the rate at which the forward reaction occur is the same as the rate at which the reverse reaction occurs. This system is said to undergo a reversible reaction. The concentration of the reactants and products do not change, i.e are constant.

In a chemical equilibrium, the reaction continues in both directions but at the same rate.

Therefore the statement that is a misconception about a system in chemical equilibrium is 'There are equal parts reactants and products'.
