Answer:

Hi,

The correct answer option is; D. Most of the current will flow through one part of the circuit.

Explanation:

A short circuit is a low resistance path in an electric connection between two conductors supplying current in a circuit.

It happens when excess amounts of current flow in the power source through a 'short path'.

Short circuits occur at very high temperatures which is of course caused by the heat produced during dissipation.

An example of application of short circuit is arc welding, where heating is achieved through short circuit.

Alona [7]

Here light ray strikes to interface at an angle of 45 degree and then refracts into other medium such that it will bend towards boundary.

So here the angle of incidence will be less than the angle of refraction as light moves towards the boundary after refraction which mean it will bend away from the normal

here it can be said that medium 2 will be rarer then medium 1

So here the possible options are

1. Water  

Air

2. Diamond  

Air

So in above two options medium 1 is denser and medium 2 is rarer

Is the part of the microscope that allows you to adjust the light?
madreJ [45]
According to funtriva.com, the piece that allows you to adjust the amount of light that's coming through the microscope is called the adjustable diaphragm. It is located under to stage (where what you are observing is placed on) and can be rotated to make the light<span> intensity change</span>

A skier is accelerating down a 30.0-degree hill at 3.80 m/s^2.
Bond [772]

Answer:

ax = -3.29[m/s²]

ay = -1.9[m/s²]

Explanation:

We must remember that acceleration is a vector and therefore has magnitude and direction.

In this case, it is accelerating downwards, therefore for a greater understanding we will make a diagram of said vector, this diagram is attached.

a_{x}=-3.8*cos(30) = -3.29 [m/s^{2}]\\ a_{y}=-3.8*sin(30) = -1.9 [m/s^{2}]
