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

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.

How to change mass but keep the force the same?

Scilla [17]

Answer:

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.

A scuba diver measures an increase in pressure of around 10^5 Pa upon descending by 10 m, what is the change in force per square

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, .

Pressure around scuba is

P = 10^5 Pa

1 Pa = 1 N/m²

Then

P = 10^5 N/m²

Descending height

h = 10m

Change in force per unit square centimetre

We know that,

Pressure = Force / Area

Then,

Force / Area is the required question we are finding

Then,

Force / Area = 10^5 N / m²

So, let convert the m² to cm²

100cm = 1m

(100cm)² = (1m)²

10⁴cm² = 1m²

Then,

Force / Area = 10^5 N/m² × 1m² / 10⁴cm²

Force / Area = 10 N/cm²

So, the force per unit square centimeters is 10.

A 150 g egg is dropped from 3.0 meters. The egg is

Lynna [10]

Answer:

9.2 N, with significant figure rounding (2 s.f.)

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using momentum. The following equation relates momentum (mass & velocity) with force and time:

Note that where v is the final velocity and v₀ is the initial velocity. Δv just means change in velocity.

Mass of the egg is 150 g, but we need to convert to kilograms if we want to use Newtons as a unit. 150 g is equal to 0.15 kg. since 1000 g = 1kg.

m = 0.15 kg

The dropped from 3.0 meters is irrelevant as the question tells us the initial velocity of the egg: 4.4 m/s before it hits the ground.

v₀ = 4.4 m/s [down]

When it comes to a stop, the egg will have a velocity of 0.

v = 0 m/s

The time it takes for the egg to stop is 0.072 seconds.

Δt = 0.072 s

Therefore, if down is positive, then

We round to two significant figures since every quantity has two sig. figs.

We only care about the magnitude, not direction. The answer is 9.2 N.

A car has a momentum of 20,000 kg • m/s. What would the car’s momentum be if its velocity doubles?

AnnyKZ [126]

To answer this question, it helps enormously if you know
the formula for momentum:

Momentum = (mass) x (speed) .

Looking at the formula, you can see that momentum is directly
proportional to speed. So if speed doubles, so does momentum.

If the car's momentum is 20,000 kg-m/s now, then after its speed
doubles, its momentum has also doubled, to 40,000 kg-m/s.

A 20-kg boy slides down a smooth, snow-covered hill on a plastic disk. The hill is at a 10° angle to the horizontal, and the slo

zvonat [6]

Answer:

13 m/s

Explanation:

I assume we are ignoring friction.

The boy's PE will all be converted to KE at the bottom of the hill.

to find PE = mgh we need to know h

h = 50 sin 10 = 8.68 meters

then: PE = 20 * 9.81 * 8.68 = 1703.49 j

KE = 1/2 m v^2 = 1703 .49

v = 13 m/s
