A light bulb will glow when electrons flow through it. As the electron flow increases, the brightness increases as well. A stude

nt hooks up two circuits containing three light bulbs in each circuit. In one circuit the lights are connected in series and in the other circuit the lights are hooked up in parallel.
If you could only see the lights in the circuit and the wires were covered from view, how could you determine the type of circuit the lights are arranged in?

A) If all the lights are equal brightness, it is a series circuit.
B) If all the lights are equal brightness, it is a parallel circuit.
C) Unscrew one light, if the others remain on it is a series circuit.
D) Unscrew one light, if the others remain on it is a parallel circuit.

Two light bulbs have resistances of 400 Ω and 800 ΩThe two light bulbs are connected in series across a 120- V line. Find the cu
Natasha2012 [34]

1) Current in each bulb: 0.1 A

The two light bulbs are connected in series, this means that their equivalent resistance is just the sum of the two resistances:

R_{eq}=R_1 + R_2 = 400 \Omega + 800 \Omega=1200 \Omega

And so, the current through the circuit is (using Ohm's law):

I=\frac{V}{R_{eq}}=\frac{120 V}{1200 \Omega}=0.1 A

And since the two bulbs are connected in series, the current through each bulb is the same.

2) 4 W and 8 W

The power dissipated by each bulb is given by the formula:

P=I^2 R

where I is the current and R is the resistance.

For the first bulb:

P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (400 \Omega)=4 W

For the second bulb:

P_1 = (0.1 A)^2 (800 \Omega)=8 W

3) 12 W

The total power dissipated in both bulbs is simply the sum of the power dissipated by each bulb, so:

P_{tot} = P_1 + P_2 = 4 W + 8 W=12 W

An object is made of glass and has the shape of a cube 0.13 m on a side, according to an observer at rest relative to it. Howeve
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

v=0.9833\ c

Explanation:

The density changes means that the length in the direction of the motion is changed.

Therefore,

$\text{Density} = \frac{m}{lwh}$

Given :

Side,  b = h = 0.13 m

Mass, m = 3.3 kg

Density = 8100 kg/m^3

So,

$8100=\frac{3.3}{l \times 0.13 \times 0.13}$

$l=\frac{3.3}{8100 \times 0.13 \times 0.13}$

l = 0.024 m

Then for relativistic length contraction,

$l= l' \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$0.024= 0.13 \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$0.184=  \sqrt{1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$0.033=  1-\frac{v^2}{c^2}}$

$\frac{v^2}{c^2}= 0.967$

$\frac{v}{c}=0.9833$

v=0.9833\ c

Therefore, the speed of the observer relative to the cube is 0.9833 c (in the units of c).

What is the difference between weight and mass? Give an example of how they are different.
marusya05 [52]
Mass is the amount of matter it has, while weight <span>is a measurement of the force placed on an object by gravity. An example of how they are different is that mass is always constant while weight varies depending on the location.</span>

An object is dropped from a vertical distance of 25.5 m above the ground, and it takes 2.28 sec to fall that distance. A second
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The second object takes 2.28 s to fall the 25.5 m.

Explanation:

In this case, both objects take the same time to fall, since <em>no vertical velocity is added </em>to any of them.

You can also confirm this by sepparating the second's object movement into its two directions: in the horizontal one, we have <em>linear uniform motion, </em>and in the vertical one, we have <em>free fall, </em>with exactly the same characteristics as for the first object.
