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.

What is a cool example of newtons 3rd law?
USPshnik [31]
<span>This law means that when one object exerts force on another, the same amount of force is exerted on the initial object, but in the opposite reaction. For example, when a billiard ball strikes another ball, the second ball is propelled forward. Simultaneously, the momentum of the first ball is slowed or stopped by opposing force. The amount that the first object is affected by the opposing force depends on the mass and motion of the second object.</span>

Pluto has been reassigned and is now a dwarf planet. Why did scientists think this reassignment was necessary? If you were a sci
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Explanation:

we humans have our own ify classification for celestial objects, most people are saddened that pluto is not a planet anymore altho it hasn't changed at all.

scientist say that if an object is going to be considered a planet it must fill in these three checkboxes:

You must be spherical, you must orbit a star, and you must have already cleared your path or debris.

Pluto fills in the first two boxes but it does orbit in the keyperbelt and there are 5 other objects just like it. this is why pluto has been dubbed a dwarf planet.

The answer is; producing genetically modified organism


GMOs have been shown to produce varieties of organisms that have increased yields and  are resistant to the upsets of climate change and diseases. GMOs are made by introducing genes into an organism that will confer particular desired traits such as disease and drought resistance.

If he leaves the ramp with a speed of 35.0 m/s and has a speed of 33.0 m/s at the top of his trajectory, determine his maximum h
nadezda [96]

Answer:

H = 6.93 m

Explanation:

given data

velocity v = 35 m/s

horizontal component Vx = 33 m/s

solution

we get here maximum height so first we get vertical component here that is express as

Vy = \sqrt{v^2- Vx^2}        .........................1

put here value

Vy = \sqrt{35^2- 33^2}

Vy = 11.66 m/s

and

now we get height

H = \frac{Vy^2}{2g}        .............................2

put here value

H = \frac{11.66^2}{2\times 9.8}

H = 6.93 m
