A lightbulb glows brightly when it is connected across a certain battery. The battery will maintain a constant potential differe

nce even as its output current increases. Four more identical bulbs are then connected across the same battery, so that all five bulbs are in parallel. How does the brightness of each of the five bulbs in parallel compare to the original bulb?

Answer:

The brightness will remain the same .

Explanation:

Th current through each bulb will remain the same in both the cases because the voltage that each bulb is getting in both the cases will be same .

If V be the emf of the battery . In the first case current through one bulb

= V / r where r is resistance of the bulb .

In the second case , as the bulbs are in parallel , each of them will get full potential of the battery so in this case current through each bulb

= V / r .

So brightness of each bulb will remain same as current will remain the same.

True or false all waves need a medium in order to travel
Roman55 [17]
No light does not need medium to travel.Its an electromagnetic(EM) wave.All EM waves travel independent of medium. In contrast mechanical waves need a medium,sound waves,shock waves are mechanical and they need medium to transfer energy or travel.

Sammy is talking to Sally. Position A is a position in front of Sammy's mouth. Position B is a position in front of Sally's ear.
notka56 [123]

Answer:

Explanation:

To listen the sound, the air particles must vibrates.

As the sound energy produce vibrations in the medium, so the air column exerts pressure, and then the air molecules set into vibrations and we hear sound as the diaphram set into vibrations.

The weightlifter's internal store of energy decreased when he lifted the bar.
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The energy returns to the weightlifter's muscles, where it is dissipated as heat.

Explanation:

The energy returns to the weightlifter's muscles, where it is dissipated as heat. As long as the weightlifter controls the weight's descent, their muscles are acting as an overdamped shock absorber, as if the weight were sitting on a piston containing very thick fluid, slowly compressing it downward (and slightly heating up the fluid in the process). Since muscles are complicated biological systems and not simple pistons, they require metabolic energy to maintain tension throughout the controlled descent, so the weightlifter feels like they're putting energy into the weight, even though the weight's gravitational potential energy is being converted into heat within the lifter's muscles.

A cannon shoots a ball at an angle θ above the horizontal ground. (a) Neglecting air resistance, use Newton's second law to find
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a)  x = v₀ₓ t ,  y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

Explanation:

This is a projectile launch problem, let's use Newton's second law on each axis

X axis

       F = m a

Since there is no acceleration on the x axis, the force on this axis is zero

Y Axis  

       -W = m a_{y}

       -m g = m a_{y}  

       a_{y}  = -g

In this axis the acceleration is the acceleration of gravity

Now we can use science to find the position of the body on each axis

X axis

       x = v₀ₓ t + ½ a  t²

As the acceleration on this axis is zero

      x = v₀ₓ t

Y Axis

       y = v_{oy} t + ½ a_{y}  t²

The acceleration on this axis is –g

        y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

B) to find the maximum value of distance r

        r =√ x² + y²

        r = √( v₀ₓ² t² + (v_{oy} t + ½ g t²)²

We can find the maximum value of r using time respect derivatives

      dr / dt = 0

      0 = ½ 1/√( v₀ₓ² t² + (v_{oy} t + ½ g t²)²    (v₀ₓ² 2t + 2 (v_{oy} t - ½ g t²)(v_{oy} - ½ g2t)

We simplify this expression

         0 = v₀ₓ² 2t + 2 (v_{oy} t - ½ g t²)  (v_{oy} - ½ g2t)

       -v₀ₓ² t =( v_{oy} t - ½ g t²)  (v_{oy} - ½ g2t)  

      -v₀ₓ² t = v_{oy}² t -3/2 gt² v_{oy} + 1/2 g² t³  

       ½ g² t²- 3/2 g v_{oy} t  = v_{oy}² + v₀ₓ²

Let's use trigonometry to find go and vox

         sin θ = v_{oy} / v₀

         cos θ = vox / v₀

         v_{oy} = v₀ sin θ

        v₀ₓ = v₀ cos θ

We replace

         ½ g² t² -3/2 g v_{oy} t = v₀ (sin² θ +  cos² θ)

          g t² - 3v₀ sin θ t = 2 v₀/g

 

The time is maximum for the angle is zero
