Answer: c) with the same brightness

Explanation: The load in this case the bulb, is not polarized ( it has no positive and negative points) thus any connection relative to the battery (source) will have no effect on it brightness.

Also, brightness is a function of current and in this case the voltage ( from battery) and resistance of load (bulb) is constant, and according to ohms law (V=IR) if the current is constant at the first connection, it will be the same at the reversed connection.

9. According to statistical theory, 68% of your measurements of time should fall within the range of and of therefore about 3 of
Nady [450]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

Yes, this is a random error generating because of statistical constraint. We only have finite number of data points. As per this, if we plot our observation we will get a gaussian (inverse bell ) shaped curve with mean equal to central value.

Tires of a Bigfoot truck has a diameter of 2.2 m. If it rotates 60 revolutions find distance travel on the road.
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

s = 414.7 m\\

Explanation:

The relationship between the linear distance covered by an object and its angular displacement is given by the following formula:

s = rθ

where,

s = distance traveled on road = ?

r  radius of tires = diameter/2 = 2.2 m/2 = 1.1 m

θ = angular displacement = (60 rev)(2π rad/1 rev) = 377 rad

Therefore,

s = (1.1 m)(377 rad)\\s = 414.7 m

3.7. A dog searching for a bone walks 3.50 m south, then 8.20 m at an angle 23.1 degrees north of east, and finally 15.0 m west.
andriy [413]

Answer:

Explanation:

We shall represent displacement of dog in vector form , in terms of i , j , i representing east  and  j representing north .

Dog travels 3.5 m south .

Displacement D₁ = - 3.5 j

then dog travels 8.2 m , 23.1 degree north of east

Displacement D₂ = 8.2 cos23.1 i + 8.2 sin23 j

D₂ = 8.2 cos23.1 i + 8.2 sin23.1  j

= 7.54 i + 3.22 j  

Third displacement

D₃ = - 15i

Total displacement = D₁ + D₂ + D₃

= - 3.5 j + 7.54 i + 3.22 j  -15i

= - 7.46 i - 0.28 j

Magnitude of displacement = √ ( 7.46² + .28²)

= √(55.65 + .08 )

= 7.46 m

b ) Direction of displacement

If Ф be angle , displacement makes with west direction

TanФ =  .08 / 55.65 = .00143

Ф = .082 degree south of west or almost west .

From east , this angle = 180 + .082 = 180.082 , counterclockwise .

Gasoline burns inside a car’s engine. how does this fuel enable a car to move?
Svetllana [295]
<span> The purpose of a gasoline car engine is to convert gasoline into motion so that your car can move. Currently the easiest way to create motion from gasoline is to burn the gasoline inside an engine.
Therefore, a car engine is an internal combustion engine -- combustion takes place internally.
There is such a thing as an external combustion engine. A steam engine in old-fashioned trains and steam boats is the best example of an external combustion engine. The fuel (coal, wood, oil, whatever) in a steam engine burns outside the engine to create steam, and the steam creates motion inside the engine. Internal combustion is a lot more efficient (takes less fuel per mile) than external combustion, plus an internal combustion engine is a lot smaller than an equivalent external combustion engine. This explains why we don't see any cars using steam engines.

To understand the basic idea behind how a reciprocating internal combustion engine works, it is helpful to have a good mental image of how "internal combustion" works.

One good example is an old Revolutionary War cannon. You have probably seen these in movies, where the soldiers load the cannon with gun powder and a cannon ball and light it. That is internal combustion, but it is hard to imagine that having anything to do with engines.

A potato cannon uses the basic principle behind any reciprocating internal combustion engine: If you put a tiny amount of high-energy fuel (like gasoline) in a small, enclosed space and ignite it, an incredible amount of energy is released in the form of expanding gas. You can use that energy to propel a potato 500 feet. In this case, the energy is translated into potato motion. You can also use it for more interesting purposes. For example, if you can create a cycle that allows you to set off explosions like this hundreds of times per minute, and if you can harness that energy in a useful way, what you have is the core of a car engine! </span>
