The best way to reduce the number of disasters related to mass movements is to relocate people.

Physics
1 answer:
Kitty [74]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The statement is false.

Explanation:

  • The downward movement of rock and boulders due to the force of gravity is known as mass movement.
  • Mass movement takes place continuously and is seen to occur in all slopes, some take place slowly and cause no damage while some are disastrous.
  • The best way to reduce the number of disasters related to mass movement is by educating the people about these and how to protect themselves, not by relocating.

A capacitor consists of a set of two parallel plates of area a separated by a distance
MakcuM [25]
When a dielectric material is inserted between two plates of capacitor that are connected to a battery, you would observe that both the charge and the capacitance of the capacitor would change. This is due to the dielectric material which is able to transmit electric force.

Ratio of resistances of two bulbs is 2:3. If they are connected in series to a supply, then the ratio of voltages across them is
V125BC [204]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Two resistor has resistance in the ratio 2:3

Then,

R1 : R2 = 2:3

R1 / R2 =⅔

3 •R1 = 2• R2

Let R2 = R

Then,

R1 = ⅔R2 = 2/3 R

So, if the resistor are connected in series

Let know the current that will flow in the circuit

Series connection will have a equivalent resistance of

Req = R1 + R2

Req = R + ⅔ R = 5/3 R

Req = 5R / 3

Let a voltage V be connect across then, the current that flows can be calculated using ohms law

V = iR

I = V/Req

I = V / (5R /3)

I = 3V / 5R

This the current that flows in the two resistors since the same current flows in series connection

Now, using ohms law again to calculated voltage in each resistor

V= iR

For R1 = ⅔R

V1 =i•R1

V1 = 3V / 5R × 2R / 3

V1 = 3V × 2R / 5R × 3

V1 = 2V / 5

For R2 = R

V2 = i•R2

V2 = 3V / 5R × R

V2 = 3V × R / 5R

V2 = 3V / 5

Then,

Ratio of voltage 1 to voltage 2

V1 : V2 = V1 / V2 = 2V / 5 ÷ 3V / 5

V1 : V2 = 2V / 5 × 5 / 3V.

V1 : V2 =2 / 3

V1:V2 = 2:3

The ratio of their voltages is also 2:3

Calculate the current through the ammeter (look at photo)
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

6 amps

Explanation:by Kirchhoff's loop rule the current at any point in the loop must be equal or charge would be building up. The current at the ammeter is equally to the total current through the sun of the paths in parallel which it is in series with
