An electrician is creating a wiring plan for a small house. He needs to create a plan that will allow the homeowners to turn off

lights in one room without turning off the lights in another. What should he do to assure that each room's lights function independently of one another?
A) He should wire each room in series with the next.
B) He should wire each room in parallel with the next.
C) He should make sure each room's lights provide the same resistance.
D) He should wire the room with the most lights directly to the circuit breaker box.

So the answer is B) he should wire each room in parallel. This is because when the bulbs are in parallel if one part of the parallel circuit is broken (eg when you switch a light off) then the current can still flow to all the other bulbs, meaning they stay turned on. Hope this helps :)

How is acceleration calculated?
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time

Explanation:

This is the correct answer because distance divided by time is the position. Speed multiplied by time is the distance. And acceleration is not just velocity, but the change in velocity over time.

on a very muddy football field, a 120 kg linebacker tackles an 75 kg halfback. immediately before the collision, the linebacker
DIA [1.3K]
<u>Momentum</u> 
- a vector quantity; has both magnitude and direction
- has the same direction as object's velocity
- can be represented by components x & y.

Find linebacker momentum given m₁ = 120kg, v₁ = 8.6 m/s north
P₁ = m₁v₁
P₁ = (120)(8.6)
[ P₁ = 1032 kg·m/s ] = y-component, linebacker momentum

Find halfback momentum given m₂ = 75kg, v₂ = 7.4 m/s east
P₂ = m₂v₂
P₂ = (75)(7.4)
[ P₂ = 555 kg·m/s ] = x-component, halfback momentum

Find total momentum using x and y components.
P = √(P₁)² + (P₂)²
P = √(1032)² + (555)²
[[ P = 1171.77 kg·m/s ]] = magnitude 

!! Finally, to find the magnitude of velocity, take the divide magnitude of momentum by the total mass of the players.
P = mv
P = (m₁ + m₂)v
1171.77 = (120 + 75)v      <em>[solve for v]</em>
<em />v = 1171.77/195
v = 6.0091 ≈ 6.0 m/s

If asked to find direction, take inverse tan of x and y components.
tanθ = (y/x)
θ = tan⁻¹(1032/555)
[ θ = 61.73° north of east. ]

The magnitude of the velocity at which the two players move together immediately after the collision is approximately 6.0 m/s.

A runaway railroad car, with mass 30x10^4 kg, coasts across a level track at 2.0 m/s when it collides with a spring loaded bumpe
Natalija [7]

Answer:

0.775 m

Explanation:

As the car collides with the bumper, all the kinetic energy of the car (K) is converted into elastic potential energy of the bumper (U):

U=K\\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

where we have

k=2\cdot 10^6 N/m is the spring constant of the bumper

x is the maximum compression of the bumper

m=30\cdot 10^4 kg is the mass of the car

v=2.0 m/s is the speed of the car

Solving for x, we find the maximum compression of the spring:

x=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}}=\sqrt{\frac{(30\cdot 10^4 kg)(2.0 m/s)^2}{2\cdot 10^6 N/m}}=0.775 m

Answer:

2 m/s^2, west

Explanation:

Vf=final velcoity

Vi=initial velocity

t=timw

a =  \frac{vf - vi}{t}

=

\frac{15 - 25}{5}

= - 2 m/s^2

The - changes direction and makes it opposite

2 m/s, west
