An electrical circuit is powered by a 1.5-volt battery and contains a light bulb producing 5 Ohms of resistance. There is also a
Fed [463]

Answer:

if the resistor is fitted in series with the bulb , then the current flowing will be 0.15 A.....

if the resistor if fitted in parallel with the bulb ,

the current flowing will be 0.6 A

Explanation:

total potential difference = 1.5V

when resistors in series ,

total equivalent resistance is = 5 + 5 = 10 ohm

so current = 1.5 ÷ 10 = 0.15

when resistors in parallel ,

total equivalent resistance is = (5 × 5)÷(5 + 5) =2.5 ohm

so current = 1.5÷2.5 = 0.6 A

How can you change the phases of matter using thermal energy
Leokris [45]

Answer:

These energy exchanges are not changes in kinetic energy. They are changes in bonding energy between the molecules. If heat is coming into a substance during a phase change, then this energy is used to break the bonds between the molecules of the substance.
