Answer:

Ratio of series current to parallel

= 1 : 8

Explanation:

Total resistance Rt

For series, Rt = 2+2+2+2 = 4ohms

For parallel, 1/Rt = 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2 + 1/2

1/Rt = 4/2, Rt = 2/4 ohms.

If we use a 1V battery, then,

I = V/Rt

I = 1/4 = 0.25 ampere for series arrangement.

I = 1/0.5 = 2 ohms.

Ratio of current of series to parallel = 0.25 : 2

= 1 : 8

Answer:

The ratio of electric current in series and in parallel connection is 0.0625

Explanation:

Here we have for the series resistors

∑R_s = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + R₄ = 8 Ω

The current is gotten from

V = IR

I_s = V/R_s = V/8 Ω

For the parallel connected resistors we have

\frac{1}{\Sigma R_p} = \frac{1}{R_1} +\frac{1}{R_2}+\frac{1}{R_3}+\frac{1}{R_4}

Which gives

\frac{1}{\Sigma R_p} = \frac{1}{2} +\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2} = \frac{4}{2} = 2

Therefore,

\Sigma R_p = \frac{1}{2}=0.5\hspace{0.09cm} \Omega

From which,

I_p=\frac{V}{R_p} = V/0.5 Ω

The ratio between the series and parallel connection electric current  is therefore,

\frac{I_s}{I_p} = \frac{\frac{V}{8\hspace{0.09cm}\Omega} }{\frac{V}{0.5\hspace{0.09cm}\Omega} }  = \frac{V}{8\hspace{0.09cm}\Omega} \times \frac{0.5\hspace{0.09cm}\Omega}{V}  = \frac{0.5\hspace{0.09cm}\Omega}{8\hspace{0.09cm}\Omega}  = 0.0625.

the gas in a balloon has P=100000 pa and v=0.0279 m^3. if the pressure increases to 120000 pa at constant temperature, what is t
mash [69]

Answer:

New volume of the baloon is 0.02325m^3

Explanation:

To answer this question we need to know the ideal gas law, which says:

p•V = n•R•T

p is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of substance (in moles), R is constant value and T is temperature.

Since it's stated that n and T are constant, and we know that R is a constant too, that means that p•V = constant value. Basically, that means that p1•V1 (pressure and volume before the pressure increase) equals to p2•V2 (pressure and volume after the pressure increase).

That means that:

100000 Pa • 0.0279 m^3 = 120000 Pa • V2. Next, V2= 100000•0.0279/120000. So, V2=0.02325m^3.

a particle moves at a constant speed in a circular path. the instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration vectors are:
Lilit [14]

The instantaneous velocity always tangential to circular path and          instantaneous acceleration always points towards the center of circle.

What is instantaneous?

The definition of instantaneous velocity is the rate of change of location during a time that is virtually zero .The replica was. The definition of instantaneous velocity is the speed of a moving item at a certain instant in time.

The rate of change of location during a relatively brief period of time is known as instantaneous velocity.

In the limit when the time (and thus the displacement) between the two places approaches zero, the instantaneous acceleration is the average acceleration between two points on the route.

so, both of them are perpendicular to each other.

To learn about instantaneous velocity
