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

Physics
1 answer:
navik [9.2K]4 years ago
4 0
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.

Explain why the intensity of the light in a flashlight beam decreases as the flashlight moves farther away.
Karolina [17]
Ir=Initial Intensity/Area of spread=Io4πr2
Ir∝1r2

It is seen from this expression that intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance. As we move away from the light source the intensity decreases at the rate of square of the distance from the source.

Brightness being the perception of intensity. more the intensity more bright the object is perceived and vice versa.

Suppose a certain battery has an internal emf of 9.00 V but the potential difference across its terminals is only 80.0 % of that
Rudiy27

Answer:

1140.48\times 10^{-6}J

Explanation:

We have given that the battery has an internal emf of 9 volt

So E = 9 volt

Capacitance C=44\mu F=44\times 10^{-6}F

It is given that on the terminal voltage is only 80% of potential difference

So V = 0.8×9 = 7.2 volt

We know that energy stored in the capacitor is given by

E=\frac{1}{2}CV^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 44\times 10^{-6}\times 7.2^2=1140.48\times 10^{-6}J

Using a simple pendulum, we can measure. (a) Acceleration along a circle (b) Acceleration due to gravity (c) Frequency (d) None
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Option B is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Period of simple pendulum is given by the expression T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}, where l is the length of pendulum and g is the acceleration due to gravity value.

So if we have a simple pendulum with length l we can find its period. Using the above formula we can calculate  acceleration due to gravity value of that place.

So using simple pendulum we can measure acceleration due to gravity value.

Option B is the correct answer.
