Answer:

d A ball is rolling down an inclined plane.

Explanation:

When path length is equal to the displacement

then we can say that the motion of the object must be in straight line so that the distance and displacement must be same

SO here we can say

a A ball on the end of a string is moving in a vertical circle.

In circular path distance and displacement is not same

b A toy train is traveling around a circular track.

In circular path distance and displacement is not same

c A train travels 5 miles east before it stops. It then travels 2 miles west.

Net displacement is 3 miles East while distance is 7 miles

d A ball is rolling down an inclined plane.

Here its motion is in straight line so we can say that path length and displacement will be same

e A ball rises and falls after being thrown straight up from the earth's surface.

In this type of to and fro motion path length is not same as displacement

Why is there no drag in space?????? Help me please!!! Thanks!!!
astraxan [27]
It is beacuse of fluid If there is no fluid, there is no drag. Drag is generated by the difference in velocity between the solid object and the fluid. If this statement is correct then how can there be drag in space if there is no air?

The longest wavelength within the visible spectrum is _______ light.
Goryan [66]
<span>The longest wavelength within the visible spectrum is the red light. The answer is letter C. It is called visible light because it is the only light that can be seen by the human eye. Red light is the longest wavelength around 620 to 750 nanometer. It is followed by orange which has a wavelength of 590 t 620 nanometer. And then blue which has a wavelength of 450 to 495 nanometer. And the shortest wavelength is violet which has a wavelength of 380 to 459 nanometer.  </span>

What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the cur

Answer:

Incomplete question

This is the completed question

If the resistor in the circuit had a larger resistance then the current would be then have to be proportionally smaller. Because the batteries each give off 1.5 volts then the current would have to be the variable that would change. What affect would using a 12V car battery have on the operation of your circuit? (Do not try this.) What would happen to the current? What would happen to the resistor?

Explanation:

Using ohms law as our basis

Ohms law state that, the voltage in an ohmic conductor is directly proportional to the current

V∝I

Resistance is the constant of proportionality

Then

V=iR

Since we want a relationship between current and resistance.

then, I=V/R

So, current is inversely proportional to Resistance

as the current increase the resistance reduce and as the current reduces the resistance increases.

a. So, increasing the voltage from 1.5V to 12V increases the current In the circuit because voltage Is directly proportional to I.

From ohms law

V=iR

When v =1.5V

I=1.5/R

When V increase to 12V

I=12/R

I.e, it increases by a factor of 8. Eight times it's initial value

b. Now, the resistance in the circuit is the constant of proportionality and it doesn't change in a given circuit expect when using a variable resistoa r like rheostat.
