How does the current values in and out of the battery compare to the sum of currents going through the light bulbs?

1 answer:

6 0

The current values in and out of the battery is going to be equal to the sum of the currents going through the light bulbs. In a parallel circuit, the current is divided as it enters different branches and light bulbs. However, the amount of current leaving the battery is always going to be the same as the amount of current entering the battery. Therefore, while current divides in a parallel circuit, the total amount of current always remains the same.

How much potential energy does a 50-N box have when lifted at a height of 1.5M?

nikitadnepr [17]

The correct answer is: Option (A) 75 J

Explanation:

First, be careful with the units here. As you can see it is mentioned that there is a 50N box. It means that the weight (mg) of the box is given as the unit is Newton, not its mass (which is in kg).

As,

Potential-energy = mass * acceleration-due-to-gravity * height

PE = m*g*h --- (A)

In equation (A), mg is actually the weight of the box, which is given.

mg = 50N

h = height = 1.5m

Plug the values in equation (A):

PE = 50 * 1.5 = 75 J (Option A)

How does the increasing mass effect the force of an object in motion?

irina [24]

Answer:

According to second law of motion,the acceleration of an object depends directly upon the net force acting upon the object, and inversely upon the mass of the object. As the force acting upon an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is increased. As the mass of an object is increased, the acceleration of the object is decreased.

So simply, it can be affected due to increasing force as there is close relationship between momentum.

Explanation:

The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.

I hope it was helpful for you :)

Suppose a police officer is 1/2 mile south of an intersection, driving north towards the intersection at 40 mph. At the same tim

blagie [28]

Answer:

75.36 mph

Explanation:

The distance between the other car and the intersection is,

$x=x_{0}+V t \\ x=\frac{1}{2}+V t$

The distance between the police car and the intersection is,

$y=y_{0}+V t$

$y=\frac{1}{2}-40 t$

(Negative sign indicates that he is moving towards the intersection)

Therefore the distance between them is given by,

$z^{2}=x^{2}+y^{2}(\text { Using Phythogorous theorem })$

$z^{2}=\left(\frac{1}{2}+V t\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{2}-40 t\right)^{2} \ldots \ldots \ldots(1)$

The rate of change is,

$2 z \frac{d z}{d t}=2\left(\frac{1}{2}+V t\right) V+2\left(\frac{1}{2}-40 t\right)(-40)$

$2 z \frac{d z}{d t}=V+2 V^{2} t-40+3200 t \ldots \ldots \ldots$

Now finding $z$ when $t=0,$ from (1) we have

$z^{2}=\left(\frac{1}{2}+V(0)\right)^{2}+\left(\frac{1}{2}-40(0)\right)^{2}$

$z^{2}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{2} \\ z=\sqrt{\frac{1}{2}} \approx 0.7071$

The officer's radar gun indicates 25 mph pointed at the other car then, $\frac{d z}{d t}=25$ when $t=0,$ from

From (2) we get

$2(0.7071)(25)=V+2 V^{2}(0)-40+3200(0)$

$2(0.7071)(25)=V+2 V^{2}(0)-40$

$35.36=V-40$

$V=35.36+40=75.36$

Hence the speed of the car is $75.36 mph$
