As series resistors are added, the resistance is added directly so the total resistance will be equal to

R_T = R_1+R_2+R_3... R_{\infty}

Since the power is determined as

P = \frac{V^2}{R}

We have there that

P \propto \frac{1}{R}

The power is inversely proportional to the increase in resistance, so it will tend to decrease as more resistors are added in series.

The correct answer is: C.

How are adhesion and cohesion similar? how are they different?
hichkok12 [17]
<span> they're both properties of water. both involve the "sticking" property of H2O .</span><span> cohesion is "sticking" together (water sticking to water) and adhesios is water</span><span>
</span> "sticking" to something else. They are both important to life processes.

 <span>In chemistry, adhesion refers to the tendency of unlike molecules to bond with one another, while cohesion refers to the attractive force between molecules of the same type. Surface tension, which is an essential property of water, illustrates the relationship between adhesion and cohesion.</span>

Danielle exerts a 14.0 N force to compress a spring by a distance of 8.00 cm. What is the spring constant of this spring
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

175 N/m

Explanation:

Given:

Force = F=  14.0 N

Distance = x = 8.00 cm = 0.08 m

To find:

spring constant

Solution:

spring constant is calculated by using Hooke's law:

k =  F/x

Putting the values in above formula:

k = 14.0 / 0.08

k = 175 N/m

Inertia is based only on an objects <br> A. Mass<br> B. Net force <br> C. Velocity <br> D. Weight
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

A. Mass

Explanation:

Inertia is the resistance of an object to any change in its velocity. Inertia depends only on the mass of the object: the greater the mass, the larger the inertia of the object, because it will be more difficult to change the velocity of the object.

An example to better understand: assume there is a golf ball rolling with a certain speed, and a car moving with the same speed. If we want to stop the two objects, we will need a much larger force for the car, because its mass is much greater than the gold ball, so it has much more inertia than the golf ball.
