Every single thing in your home that's plugged into a wall outlet or works with a switch on the wall . . . every lamp, ceiling light, room fan, computer, microwave, stove, hair dryer, coffee pot, toaster, slow cooker, TV, home entertainment system, printer, wifi router, cordless phone, phone charger, and clock radio ...  they're ALL in parallel.

<u>And</u> chances are that everything in your house is also in parallel with everything in the houses of a few of your neighbors on each side of you.

THAT's how parallel circuits are used in residential areas.

If you see a sedimentary rock outcrop and red layers of sand are on top of pale yellow layers of sand, what do you know for sure
neonofarm [45]

Answer: The yellow layer is definitely older than the red layer

Explanation: According to Nicolaus Steno's law of superposition and original horizontality. Older rocks underlie younger rocks.

Sedimentary rocks are usually deposited in horizontal layers in which each stratigraphic layer is laid down before another can be deposited upon it.

The red layer, in addition to being older, is also likely to have undergone intense oxidation due to earlier exposure.

A large crane consists of a 20 m, 3,000 kg arm that extends horizontally on top of a vertical tower. The arm extends 15 m toward
Anni [7]

Answer:

m=18000kg

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Crane Length l=20m

Crane Mass m_a=3000kg

Arm extension at lifting end l_l=15m

Arm extension at counter weight end l_c=5m

Load M_l=5000kg

Generally the equation for Torque Balance is mathematically given by

T_1 *l_c-(m_a*g) *l_c-(T_2)*l_l=0

mg*5 *-(3000*9.8) *5-(5000*9.8)*15=0

m=18000kg

A driver.

Explanation:

Using a driver while at least 350 yds away is better than using a iron, because it will be a waste of the par 4 as it is not as powerful as the driver.
