Answer: A voltmeter must have a high resistance where as an ammeter must have a low resistance.
Explanation:
A voltmeter is a device which is connected in parallel to the component across which voltage needs to be measured. In a parallel circuit voltage drop is same at the nodes. The parallel connection must not offer easier path for current to divert from the main circuit and travel. Thus, a voltmeter must have high resistance.
On the other hand, an ammeter which is used to measure current in the circuit must have low resistance as it is connected in series. It should not offer resistance as it would reduce the actual current and measurement would be inaccurate.
The addition of heat energy to a
system always causes the temperature of that system to increase. This is always
true because you are adding heat of a substance to increase its temperature. For example, you are going
to drink a cup of coffee. And you wanted it hot to boost your attention. So you
have to use hot water. In order for your water to become hot or warm, you need
boil it in a kettle. Note that you are going to use an electric stove. The
electric stove gets it energy from the source giving it a hotter temperature to
the water in the kettle. You are applying heat energy to warm the water. So,
the statement is true.
Answer:
(a) The force between them quadruples
Explanation:
According to coulomb's law, initial force between the two charged objects is given as;

where;
k is coulomb's constant
q₁ is the charge on the first object
q₂ is the charge on the second object
r is the distance between the two objects
When the charges on both objects are doubled, then;
q₁ = 2q₁
q₂ = 2q₂
Force between the two charged objects will become

Therefore, the force between them quadruples
A) 
The total energy of the system is equal to the maximum elastic potential energy, that is achieved when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (x=A):
(1)
where k is the spring constant.
The total energy, which is conserved, at any other point of the motion is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:
(2)
where x is the displacement, m the mass, and v the speed.
We want to know the displacement x at which the elastic potential energy is 1/3 of the kinetic energy:

Using (2) we can rewrite this as

And using (1), we find

Substituting
into the last equation, we find the value of x:

B) 
In this case, the kinetic energy is 1/10 of the total energy:

Since we have

we can write

And so we find:
