Is there a link between number of bulbs and current drawn from the power pack?

Physics
1 answer:
Maurinko [17]3 years ago
5 0

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.

What causes an object to move, change direction or change speed?
Wittaler [7]
I believe it would be an unbalanced force. Because the forces are unbalanced, one side is stronger and, therefore, the object will move.

julia-pushkina [17]
W boson has +1e or - 1e charge, Z boson has 0 charge.

Leptons have +1e, -1e or 0 charge.

Photons have 0 charge.

Only quarks have a charge of +2/3e or -1/3e of an electron charge. 

To be exact, only up-type quarks (Up, Down and Top quarks) have a +2/3e or two thirds of an electron charge.

So the correct answer is D) Quark.

For a freely falling object weighing 3 kg : A. what is the object's velocity 2 s after it's release. B. What is the kinetic ener
Fed [463]

A) 19.6 m/s (downward)

B) 576 J

C) 19.6 m

D) Velocity: not affected, kinetic energy: doubles, distance: not affected

Explanation:

A)

An object in free fall is acted upon one force only, which is the force of gravity.

Therefore, the motion of an object in free fall is a uniformly accelerated motion (constant acceleration). Therefore, we can find its velocity by applying the following suvat equation:

v=u+at

where:

v is the velocity at time t

u is the initial velocity

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity

For the object in this problem, taking downward as positive direction, we have:

u=0 (the object starts from rest)

a=9.8 m/s^2

Therefore, the velocity after

t = 2 s

is:

v=0+(9.8)(2)=19.6 m/s (downward)

B)

The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion.

It can be calculated using the equation:

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

For the object in the problem, at t = 2 s, we have:

m = 3 kg (mass of the object)

v = 19.6 m/s (speed of the object)

Therefore, its kinetic energy is:

KE=\frac{1}{2}(3)(19.6)^2=576 J

C)

In order to find how far the object has fallen, we can use another suvat equation for uniformly accelerated motion:

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

where

s is the distance covered

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

a is the acceleration

For the object in free fall in this problem, we have:

u = 0 (it starts from rest)

a=g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

t = 2 s (time)

Therefore, the distance covered is

s=0+\frac{1}{2}(9.8)(2)^2=19.6 m

D)

Here the mass of the object has been doubled, so now it is

M = 6 kg

For part A) (final velocity of the object), we notice that the equation that we use to find the velocity does not depend at all on the mass of the object. This means that the value of the final velocity is not affected.

For part B) (kinetic energy), we notice that the kinetic energy depends on the mass, so in this case this value has changed.

The new kinetic energy is

KE'=\frac{1}{2}Mv^2

where

M = 6 kg is the new mass

v = 19.6 m/s is the speed

Substituting,

KE'=\frac{1}{2}(6)(19.6)^2=1152 J

And we see that this value is twice the value calculated in part A: so, the kinetic energy has doubled.

Finally, for part c) (distance covered), we see that its equation does not depend on the mass, therefore this value is not affected.

A fireperson is 50 m from a burning building and directs a stream of water from a fire hose at an angle of 300 above the horizon
notsponge [240]

Answer:

We can think the water stream as a solid object that is fired.

The distance between the fireperson and the building is 50m. (i consider that the position of the fireperson is our position = 0)

The angle is 30 above the horizontal. (yo wrote 300, but this has no sense because 300° implies that he is pointing to the ground).

The initial speed of the stream is 40m/s.

First, using the fact that:

x = R*cos(θ)

y = R*sin(θ)

in this case R = 40m/s and θ = 30°

We can use the above relation to find the components of the velocity:

Vx = 40m/s*cos(30°) = 34.64m/s

Vy = 20m/s.

First step:

We want to find the time needed to the stream to hit the buildin.

The horizontal speed is 34.64m/s and the distance to the wall is 50m

So we want that:

34.64m/s*t = 50m

t = 50m/(34.64m/s) = 1.44 seconds.

Now we need to calculate the height of the stream at t = 1.44s

Second step:

The only force acting on the water is the gravitational one, so the acceleration of the stream is:

a(t) = -g.

g = -9.8m/s^2

For the speed, we integrate over time and we get:

v(t) = -g*t + v0

where v0 is the initial speed: v0 = 20m/s.

The velocity equation is:

v(t) = -g*t + 20m/s.

For the position, we integrate again over time:

p(t) = -(1/2)*g*t^2 + 20m/s*t + p0

p0 is the initial height of the stream, this data is not known.

Now, the height at the time t = 1.44s is

p(1.44s) = -5.9m/s^2*(1.44s)^2 + 20m/s*1.44s + po

             = 16.57m + p0

So the height at wich the stream hits the building is 16.57 meters above the initial height of the fire hose.

Whenever an object exerts a force on another object, the second object exerts a force o the same amount, but in the ______ direc
Brut [27]

Answer:

Opposite

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal but opposite reaction.

Action-reaction force pairs make it possible for fishes to swim, birds to fly, cars to move etc,

For example, while driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a car (Action) and makes a quite obvious mess in front of the face of the driver (Reaction) i.e the firefly hit the car and the car hits the firefly.

The ultimately implies that, in every interaction, there is a pair of equal but opposite forces acting on the two interacting physical objects.

Hence, whenever any physical object exerts a force (action) on another physical object, the second physical object exerts a force (reaction) of the same amount, but acting in opposite direction to that of the first physical object.
