Answer:

Yes, there a link between number of bulbs and current drawn from the power pack.

Explanation:

In an Electrical circuit, we have resistors present in that circuit. These resistors can be connected in two ways.

a) Series connection

b) Parallel connection

There is a link or a relationship between number of bulbs and the current drawn from the power pack. This is because the number of bulbs is equivalent to or equal to the number of resistors.

Hence,

a) In a series connection, the link or relationship between the number of bulbs(resistors) is as the number of light bulbs increases, the current in the power pack (circuit) decreases.

b) In a parallel connection, the link or relationship between the number of bulbs(resistors) is as the number of light bulbs increases, the current in the power pack (circuit) increases.

A student notices that an inflated balloon gets larger when it is warmed by a lamp. Which best describes the mass of the balloon

nirvana33 [79]

It gets larger because
well let me give you an example
so today in class we looked at a lava lamp with wax inside and there was a lightbulb at the bottom.
we watched as the wax floated up because the molecules inside the wax spreads out and makes the wax less dense.
the wax floats up because (which is related to the balloon getting bigger) the wax is getting less dense and the particles get bigger which ALSO makes the wax less dense.
hope this helps and hope you can relate it to your problem! say thanks if I did help AT ALL! :)

A 46.8-g golf ball is driven from the tee with an initial speed of 58.8 m/s and rises to a height of 24.7 m. (a) Neglect air res

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

a) the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point is 69.58 J

b) its speed when it is 8.11 m below its highest point is 55.97 m/s

Explanation:

Given that;

mass of golf ball m = 46.8 g = 0.0468 kg

initial speed of the ball v₁ = 58.8 m/s

height h = 24.7 m

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point = ?

from the conservation of energy;

Kinetic energy at the highest point will be;

K.Ei + P.Ei = KEf + PEf

now the Initial potential energy of the ball P.Ei = 0 J

1/2mv² + 0 J = KEf + mgh

K.Ef = 1/2mv² - mgh

we substitute

K.Ef = [1/2 × 0.0468 × (58.8 )²] - [0.0468 × 9.8 × 24.7]

K.Ef = 80.904 - 11.3284

K.Ef = 69.58 J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the ball at its highest point is 69.58 J

b) when the ball is 8.11 m below the highest point, speed = ?

so our raw height h' will be ( 24.7 m - 8.11 m) = 16.59 m

so our velocity will be v₂

also using the principle of energy conservation;

K.Ei + P.Ei = KEh + PEh

1/2mv² + 0 J = 1/2mv₂² + mgh'

1/2mv₂² = 1/2mv² - mgh'

multiply through by 2/m

v₂² = v² - 2gh'

v₂ = √( v² - 2gh' )

we substitute

v₂ = √( (58.8)² - 2×9.8×16.59 )

v₂ = √( 3457.44 - 325.164 )

v₂ = √( 3132.276 )

v₂ = 55.97 m/s

Therefore, its speed when it is 8.11 m below its highest point is 55.97 m/s

Describe the factors that cause static friction between two surfaces to increase.

maw [93]

Answer : The static friction depends on two factors

1. Roughness of the surface

2. Force

Explanation : Friction occur when surface is not smooth.

The formula of friction is

$F= \mu mg$

Static friction depends on the roughness of the surface and force which is trying to push to object along the surface.

Static friction is caused by the attraction between two surfaces that are in contact. when the surface will rough and the object will heavier then the force will be larger.
