Why are lamps connected in parrells rather than in a series in domestic circuit

Physics

Answer:

In series so that each component has the same current. The battery voltage is divided between the two lamps. Each lamp will have half the battery voltage if the lamps are identical. In parallel so that each component has the same voltage.

A 66-kg diver jumps off a 9.7-m tower. (a) Find the diver's velocity when he hits the water. (b) The diver comes to a stop 2.0 m
Mariana [72]

Answer:

(a)  13.795 m/s.

(b) -3140.28 N.

Explanation:

(a) Using newton's  equation of motion,

v² = u² + 2gs.......................... Equation 1

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, s = height of the tower, g = acceleration due to gravity.

Given: s = 9.7 m, u = 0 m/s ( jump from a height), g = 9.81 m/s².

Substitute into equation 1

v² = 0² + 2×9.81×9.7

v² = 190.314

v = √(190.314)

v = 13.795 m/s.

Hence the velocity of the driver when he hits the water = 13.795 m/s.

(b)

F = ma.................... Equation 2

Where F = force exerted on the diver, m = mass of the diver, a = acceleration of the diver below the water surface.

Also using

v² = u² + 2as ............ Equation 3

Note: At the point when the diver enters the water, u = 13.795 m/s, and at the point when the diver comes to a complete stop, v = 0 m/s

Given: s = 2.0 m, u = 13.795 m/s, v = 0 m/s

Substitute into equation 3

0² = 13.795²+2(2a)

0 = 190.30203 + 4a

-4a = 190.30203

a = 190.30203/-4

a = -47.58 m/s²

Also given: m = 66 kg,

Substitute into equation 3

F = (-47.58)(66)

F = -3140.28

Note: The Force is negative because it act against the motion of the diver.

Hence the net force exerted on the diver while in the water = -3140.28 N.

What’s the velocity of a sound wave traveling through air at a temperature of 18°C (64.4°F)?
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

342 m/s

Explanation:

The velocity of sound in air is approximated as:

v ≈ 331.4 + 0.6 T

where v is the velocity in m/s and T is the temperature in Celsius.

At T = 18:

v ≈ 331.4 + 0.6 (18)

v ≈ 342.2

The velocity is approximately 342 m/s.

He vector parts that add up to the resultant are called ____.
cupoosta [38]

1. Answer: components

A two dimensional vector can be divided into two parts called horizontal component and vertical component.

A three dimensional vector can be divided into three components: one along x-axis, one along y-axis and one along z-axis.

Hence, the vector parts that add up to the resultant are called components.

2. Answer: 5 miles.

The resultant distance along the straight line from the starting point to the end point would be the displacement.

The displacement would be equal to the magnitude of the hypotenuse formed in the right triangle.

Displacement, d=\sqrt{4^2+3^2}=\sqrt{16+9}=\sqrt{25}=5 miles

3. Answer: Scalar

A scalar quantity has only magnitude. For example, speed and distance are scalar quantities and can be normally added to find the total.

A vector quantity has both magnitude as well as direction. The components are summed according to vector addition rules. For example, velocity, acceleration, force etc.
