A parallel circuit is sometimes called a current divider because current splits up among all the resistors in the parallel circuit. In addition, the current through the branches is inversely proportional to the resistance of the branch. If the resistance in each branch is kept constant but the voltage is decreased, the current will decrease.
Answer: The law of conservation of energy is a physical law that states energy cannot be created or destroyed but may be changed from one form to another. Another way of stating this law of chemistry is to say the total energy of an isolated system.
Explanation:
Answer:
μ = 0.692
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must make a free body diagram and include the respective forces acting on the body. Similarly, deduce the respective equations according to the conditions of the problem and the directions of the forces.
Attached is an image with the respective forces:
A summation of forces on the Y-axis is performed equal to zero, in order to determine the normal force N. this summation is equal to zero since there is no movement on the Y-axis.
Since the body moves at a constant speed, there is no acceleration so the sum of forces on the X-axis must be equal to zero.
The frictional force is defined as the product of the coefficient of friction by the normal force. In this way, we can calculate the coefficient of friction.
The process of solving this problem can be seen in the attached image.
Answer:
Its diameter increases as it flows down from the pipe. Assuming laminar flow for the water, then Bernoulli's equation can be applied.
P1-P2 + (rho)g(h1 - h2) + 1/2(rho)(v1² - v2²) = 0
Explanation:
P1 = P2 = atmospheric pressure so, P1 - P2 = 0
h1 is greater than h2 so h1-h2 is positive. Rearranging the equation above 2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}/rho = v2²
From the continuity equation for fluids
A1v1 = A2v2
v2 = A1v1/A2
Substituting into the equation above
(A1v1/A2)² = 2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}/rho
Making A2² the subject of the formula,
A2² = (A1v1)²× rho/(2{ (rho)g(h1-h2) + 1/2(rho)v1²}
The denominator will be greater than the numerator and as a result the diameter of the flowing stream decreases.
