If dirt and grease were good conductors of electrical current, then we could make wire
out of dirt and grease instead of expensive copper.  Sadly, they're not. So a coating of
dirt and grease on the wire can have a substantial impact on the connection, and can
even block the flow of current across the connection completely.  Moreover, in the case
where the ends of the wires are to be soldered, solder does not adhere to dirty wire.

5) In the last part of step 7 of the procedure, you measured the resistance of the flashlight when it had no current passing thr
Andreyy89

Answer:

Following are the responses to this question:

Explanation:

The small current passes thru the capacitor of the strain gauge and the current is generated throughout the resistor. For the very first time,  in contrast to what we calculate, its resistance of the multimeter is quite high and therefore the small stream flowing through the bulb would have very little impact on the measure. Thus, as the current flows through the flashbulb, this same calculation is of excellent price, its material is heated and resistance varies with increase. Therefore, when the bulb will be on, sensitivity is greater.

A ship sails west for 100km and then south for 100km. What is the displacement?
ale4655 [162]

\sf \vec{w}=100

  • \sf \vec{s}=100

For displacement apply Pythagorean theorem

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 100^2+100^2

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 10000+10000

\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 20000
