Two sets of Christmas lights are available. For set A, when one bulb is removed, the remaining bulbs remain illuminated. For set

B, when one bulb is removed, the remaining bulbs do not operate. Explain the difference in wiring for the two sets.??(a) Two resistors are connected in series across a battery. Is the power delivered to each resistor (i) the same or (ii) not necessarily the same? (b) Two resistors are connected in parallel across a batter. Is the power delivered to each resistor (i) the same or (ii) not necessarily the same.??

Explanation:

Bulbs are nothing but resistors that glow when current passes through them.

In Set A, the bulbs (resistors) are connected  parallely to each other, this means that even if one of the bulbs fuses or removed, the circuit will still be completed and others continue to glow.

And in parallel connection if the resistance of the two resistors are same  powered delivered to each is same.

In Set B, bulbs are in series connection, this means that when one of the bulb is removed or fuses, the circuit will break and other bulbs can not operate.In this situation as well  if the resistance of two resistors is same then the power delivered is same.

A parallel-plate capacitor with plates of area 360 cm2 is charged to a potential difference V and is then disconnected from the
Softa [21]

Answer:

Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C

Explanation:

We are given that a parallel- plate capacitor is charged to a potential difference V and then disconnected from the voltage source.

1 m =100 cm

Surface area =S=\frac{360}{10000}=0.036 m^2

\Delta d=0.8 cm=0.008 m

\Delta V=100 V

We have to find the charge Q on the positive plates of the capacitor.

V=Initial voltage between plates

d=Initial distance between plates

Initial Capacitance of capacitor

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{d}

Capacitance of capacitor after moving plates

C_1=\frac{\epsilon_0 S}{(d+\Delta d)}

V=\frac{Q}{C}

Potential difference between plates after moving

V=\frac{Q}{C_1}

V+\Delta V=\frac{Q}{C_1}

\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}+100=\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0S}

\frac{Q(d+\Delta d)}{\epsilon_0 S}-\frac{Qd}{\epsilon_0S}=100

\frac{Q\Delta d}{\epsilon_0 S}=100

\epsilon_0=8.85\times 10^{-12}

Q=\frac{100\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 0.036}{0.008}

Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C

Hence, the charge on positive plate of capacitor=Q=3.9825\times 10^{-9} C

If there is a huge boulder on your lawn and you want to determine its density, but it is
Olin [163]

There are different options here but all of them work by approximating and assuming.

i) that the boulder is above ground.

ii) that the bottom surface of the boulder is known.

iii) the shape of the boulder is taken into account.

The most accurate way is measuring it by displacement method but the boulder is immovable hence the volume can be calculated by measuring the boulder or a waterproof box to be built around the boulder and calculate the volume occupied by boulder.

All the above methods are estimating methods.

*Another way to find the density is through specific gravity.

S.G = <u>Density</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>object</u>

Density of water

If the material that makes the boulder is known that is if it's stone or a mineral then the specific gravity can be found.

If the boulder is purely rock then S.G lies between 3 - 3.5 and the density of water is known thus the density of the boulder can be found without moving the boulder.

This is what I think after correction and allthe best!

A charge Q is uniformly spread over one surface of a very large nonconducting square elastic sheet having sides of length d. At
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

E/4

Explanation:

The formula for electric field of a very large (essentially infinitely large) plane of charge is given by:

E = σ/(2ε₀)

Where;

E is the electric field

σ is the surface charge density

ε₀ is the electric constant.

Formula to calculate σ is;

σ = Q/A

Where;

Q is the total charge of the sheet

A is the sheet's area.

We are told the elastic sheet is a square with a side length as d, thus ;

A = d²

So;

σ = Q/d²

Putting Q/d² for σ in the electric field equation to obtain;

E = Q/(2ε₀d²)

Now, we can see that E is inversely proportional to the square of d i.e.

E ∝ 1/d²

The electric field at P has some magnitude E. We now double the side length of the sheet to 2L while keeping the same amount of charge Q distributed over the sheet.

From the relationship of E with d, the magnitude of electric field at P will now have a quarter of its original magnitude which is;

E_new = E/4
