Technician A says that in a series circuit, if one light goes out, the rest of the lights stay on. Technician B says that in a p

arallel circuit, if one light goes out, the rest of the lights stay on. Which technician is correct?

Answer:

Explanation:

Technician A is incorrect as in series circuit the current is the same for all the resistors and if one bulb fails in the path then the circuit is incomplete and therefore no flow of current.

Technician B is correct as in parallel circuit there are multiple paths for current through which it can pass and malfunctioning of one resistor does not affect the other.

An electron enters the gap between the plates of a capacitor at the center of the gap traveling parallel to theplates at 2.0 x 1
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

How far will the electron travel beforehitting a plate is 248.125mm

Explanation:

Applying Gauss' law:

Electric Field E = Charge density/epsilon nought

Where charge density=1.0 x 10^-6C/m2 & epsilon nought= 8.85× 10^-12

Therefore E = 1.0 x 10^-6/8.85× 10^-12

E= 1.13×10^5N/C

Force on electron F=qE

Where q=charge of electron=1.6×10^-19C

Therefore F=1.6×10^-19×1.13×10^5

F=1.808×10^-14N

Acceleration on electron a = Force/Mass

Where Mass of electron = 9.10938356 × 10^-31

Therefore a= 1.808×10^-14 /9.11 × 10-31

a= 1.985×10^16m/s^2

Time spent between plate = Distance/Speed

From the question: Distance=1cm=0.01m and speed = 2×10^6m/s^2

Therefore Time = 0.01/2×10^6

Time =5×10^-9s

How far the electron would travel S =ut+ at^2/2 where u=0

S= 1.985×10^16×(5×10^-9)^2/2

S=24.8125×10^-2m

S=248.125mm

Carbon is allowed to diffuse through a steel plate 9.7-mm thick. The concentrations of carbon at the two faces are 0.664 and 0.3
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

844°C

Explanation:

The problem can be easily solve by using Fick's law and the Diffusivity or diffusion coefficient.

We know that Fick's law is given by,

J = - D \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}

Where \frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x} is the concentration of gradient

D is the diffusivity coefficient

and J is the flux of atoms.

In the other hand we have, that

D= D_0 e^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}

Where D_0 is the proportionality constant,

R is the gas constant, T the temperature and E_d is the activation energy.

Replacing the value of diffusivity coefficient in Fick's law we have,

J = -D_0 ^{\frac{E_d}{RT}}\frac{\Delta c}{\Delta x}

Rearrange the equation to get the value of temperature,

T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}

We have all the values in our equation.

\Delta c = 0.664-0.339 = 0.325 C. cm^{-1}

\Delta x = 9.7*10^{-3}m

E_d = 82000J

D_0 = 6.5*10^{-7}m^2/s

J = 3.2*10^{-9}m^2/s

R= 8.31Jmol^{-1}K

Substituting,

T=\frac{Ed}{Rln(\frac{J\Delta x}{D_0 \Delta c})}

T=-\frac{-82000}{(8.31)ln(\frac{3.2*10^{-9}(9.7*10^{-3})}{6.5*10^{-7} (0.325)})}

T=1118.07K=844\°C

On a caterpillars map all distances are marked in kilometers . The caterpillars map shows the distance between two milkweed plan
frutty [35]

Answer:

The distance in kilometers is 4012 ×10^{-6} km.

Explanation:

We know that the conversion of 1 millimeters is equal to 10^{-3} meter. And then the conversion of 1 meter is equal to 10^{-3} km. Then the conversion of 1 millimeter to km will be

1 mm = 10^{-3} m

1 m = 10^{-3} km

So, 1 mm = 10^{-3}×10^{-3} km = 10^{-6} km.

As here the the distance is 4012 mm, then the distance in km will be

4012 mm = 4012 ×10^{-6} km.

So the distance is 4012 ×10^{-6} km.

A particle moving uniformly along the x axis is located at 11.3m at 0.588s and at 3.38m at 4.67s. Find its displacement during t
Yakvenalex [24]
Displacement = (distance between start and end points) in the direction of (direction from start to end point). Distance = (11.3-3.38)= 7.92 m. Direction = the negative 'x' direction.
