<span>Each light in the string will get dimmer. Let us look at what is causing this. The scenario provided is that of a Series circuit. In the case of a series circuit, the current flowing through each of the load (String of bulbs in our example) is same, while the voltage drops equally across all the bulbs (provided all the bulbs are of the same rating) For example if we have a 230 V AC supply, and we have connected 10 bulbs in series, the voltage across each of the bulbs is (230/10=23 V). As you can see, if you add more bulbs, the voltage at each bulb drops further, causing them to dim. Hence, each light in the string will get dimmer as you add more lights. Option (B) is the answer.</span>

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

Explanation:

time of flight t = 2·V·sinθ/g

= (2 * 6.0m/s * sin35º) / 9.8m/s²

= 0.702 s

The body travels for this much time and cover horizontal displacement x from the point of lunch

So, use kinematic equation for horizontal motion

horizontal displacement

x = Vcosθ*t + ½at²

2.9 m = 6.0m/s * cos35º * 0.702s + ½a * (0.702s)²

a = -2.23 m/s²

This is the horizontal acceleration of the object.

Since the object is subject to only electric force in horizontal direction, this acceleration is due to electric force only

Therefore,the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile will be

F = m*|a|

= 0.015kg * 2.23m/s²

= 0.0335 N

Thus, the magnitude of the electric force on the projectile is 0.0335N

kherson [118]

Answer:

d=58m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Initial Speed U=12m/s

Time T=5.6s

Angle \theta=30

Generally the  Newton's equation for motion is mathematically given by

d=d'+ut+\frac{at^2}{2}

d=12cos30*5.6

d=58m

a=5000\dfrac{mm}{s}=5\dfrac{m}{s}

f=10{Hz}\Longrightarrow t=\dfrac{1}{10}s

a_{max}=\dfrac{50\frac{m}{s}}{\frac{s}{10}}\cdot\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{2}}=\dfrac{50\dfrac{m}{s^2}}{\sqrt{2}}\approx\boxed{35.4\dfrac{m}{s^2}}

Hope this helps.
