Answer:

A voltmeter is used to measure voltage.

An voltmeter must be placed in parallel with a resistor to measure the voltage through the resistor.

An ammeter is used to measure current.

Explanation:

Voltmeter measures the voltage difference between two different points as connected in parallel not change the amount of current going through the element between those two points. So, an ideal voltmeter has very high resistance so that it doesn't "draw" current through it i.e loading effect.

Ammeter has almost negligible or very small resistance. As a result, it must be connected in series so that as much current can pass through it as possible. If it is connected in parallel, the circuit will be shorted and no current will pass through any electrical components connected in the circuit.

Answer:

A) True. Voltmeters measure voltages

C) True. They are placed in parallel

E) True ammeters are used to measure current

Explanation:

The devices for voltage measurement are the voltmeter and ammeter

Voltmeters have very high intense resistance and are placed in parallel

The ammeters have very small resist and are placed in series

Based on this establishment, let's analyze the statements

A) True. Voltmeters measure voltages

B) False has high intense resistance

C) True. They are placed in parallel

D) False ammeters are placed in series

E) True ammeters are used to measure current

F) False ammeters have a low internal resistance

A father racing his son has 1/2 the kinetic energy of the son, who has 1/3 the mass of the father. The father speeds up by 1.4 m

BaLLatris [955]

Answer: a) 0.78 m/s b) 1.57 m/s

Explanation:

M = father's mass

 m = son's mass = M/3

 V = father's initial speed

 v = son's initial speed  (1/2)MV^2 = (1/2)*(1/2)*m v^2

 M*V^2 = (1/2)(M/3)v^2

 V^2/v^2 = 1/4

 V = v/2  Second equation:

 (1/2)M*(V + 1.4)^2 = (1/2)m*v^2

 = (1/2)*(M/3)*(3V)^2

 cancel out the M's and (1/2)'s

 (V + 1.4)^2 = 3V^2

 V^2 + 2.8V + 1.96 = 3V^2

 V^2 -1.4V -0.98 = 0

V^2 = 0.98/0.4 = 2.45

V = 1.57

can somebody help me answer this question? A car went from 110 m/s to 80 m/s in 20 seconds. What was the acceleration of the car

gogolik [260]

Answer:

-1.5m/s²

Explanation:

Acceleration can be thought of as [Change in Velocity]/[Change in time]. To find these changes, you simply subtract the initial quantity from the final quantity.

So for this question you have:

V_i = 110m/s
V_f = 80m/s
t_i = 0s
t_f = 20s

which means that the acceleration = (80-110)/(20-0)[m/s²] = (-30/20)m/s² = -1.5m/s²

If a t-shirt gun can fire t-shirts with an initial speed of 15 m/s, what is the maximum distance (along horizontal, flat ground)

kotegsom [21]

Answer:

h = 11.47 m

Explanation:

Initial speed pf the t-shirt gun is 15 m/s

We need to find the maximum distance covered by the t-shirt. It is based on the conservation of energy. The maximum distance covered is given by :

$h=\dfrac{u^2}{2g}\\\\h=\dfrac{(15)^2}{2\times 9.8}\\\\h=11.47\ m$

So, it will cover a distance of 11.47 m.
