Why are lights in house wired in house wired in a parallel or nothing series ​

Physics
1 answer:
navik [9.2K]4 years ago

Parallel circuits are mostly used in houses because if you turn one light off the rest stay on. While with a series circuit, if you turn one light off, all the lights turn off as well because they are all connected to one circuit (series). Parallel is usually 2 or more circuits which is why it lets you turn one thing off and everything stays on.

Answer:

41°

Explanation:

Kinetic energy at bottom = potential energy at top

½ mv² = mgh

½ v² = gh

h = v²/(2g)

h = (2.4 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)

h = 0.294 m

The pendulum rises to a height of  above the bottom.  To determine the angle, we need to use trigonometry (see attached diagram).

L − h = L cos θ

cos θ = (L − h) / L

cos θ = (1.2 − 0.294) / 1.2

θ = 41.0°

Rounded to two significant figures, the pendulum makes a maximum angle of 41° with the vertical.

The energy of a photon was found to be 3.38 x 10-19 J. Planck's constant is 6.63 x 10-34 J. S. Which color of light corresponds
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

The correct option is (c).

Explanation:

Given that,

The energy of a photon is, E=3.38\times 10^{-19}\ J

We need to tell the color of this light. We know that, the energy of a photon is given by :

E=\dfrac{hc}{\lambda}

Where

c is the speed of light

\lambda=\dfrac{hc}{E}\\\\\lambda=\dfrac{6.63\times 10^{-34}\times 3\times 10^8}{3.38 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\\lambda=5.88\times 10^{-7}\ m\\\\\lambda=588\ nm

The wavelength of yellow light is approx 580 nm. Hence, we can say that this photon corresponds to yellow light.

Ask Your Teacher A basketball player shoots toward a basket 5.8 m away and 3.0 m above the floor. If the ball is released 1.7 m
const2013 [10]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    vo = 5.43 m/s

Explanation:

Data

distance = d= 5.8 m

height = 3 m

height 2 = 1.7 m

angle = 60°

vo = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Formula

              hmax = vo²sinФ/ 2g

Solve for vo²

              vo² = 2ghmax / sinФ

Substitution

              vo² = 2(9.81)(3 - 1.7) / 0.866

Simplification

              vo² = 19.62(1.3) / 0.866

              vo² = 25.51 / 0.866

              vo² = 29.45

Result

              vo = 5.43 m/s
