Answer:

if the resistor is fitted in series with the bulb , then the current flowing will be 0.15 A.....

if the resistor if fitted in parallel with the bulb ,

the current flowing will be 0.6 A

Explanation:

total potential difference = 1.5V

when resistors in series ,

total equivalent resistance is = 5 + 5 = 10 ohm

so current = 1.5 ÷ 10 = 0.15

when resistors in parallel ,

total equivalent resistance is = (5 × 5)÷(5 + 5) =2.5 ohm

so current = 1.5÷2.5 = 0.6 A

Four resistors (67 ohm, 83 ohm, 433 ohm, and 309 ohm in that order) are connected in series to a 7.92 V battery of negligible in
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

.737 v

Explanation:

Since they are in series....they all have the same current running through them.....find the total resistance to calculate the current:

R = 67 + 83 + 433 + 309 = 892 ohm

V/R = current = 7.92 / 892 = 8.87 mAmps

Now the voltage across ecah resistor is   I R

 for the second one   8.87 ma * 83 ohm = V = .737 V

The blood pressure of human body is greater at the feet than at the brain. why?give reason​
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Gravity stronger closer to the core of the earth

Explanation:

The gravity applied to the feet is stronger than to the upper part of the body for example the brain because of the distance it is between the body part and the core of the earth where the gravity force is pulling towards. Even though the difference between the gravity force between the brain and the feet is minimal it is still a greater force at the feet than at the brain
