Answer:

Current in the circuit, I = 2.25 A

Explanation:

Given that,

Voltage of the battery, V = 9 V

Resistance of the bulb, R = 4 ohms

We need to find the current in the circuit. It can be calculated using Ohm's law. Ohm's law gives the relationship between the current, resistance and the voltage as :

$V=IR$

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{9\ V}{4\ \Omega}$

I = 2.25 A

So, the current flowing in the circuit is 2.25 amperes. Hence, this is the required solution.

According to Ohm's law for a portion of the circuit we have:

U=RI=>I=U/R=9/4=2.25 A

A horse walks along a straight path. it travels 3 in one second, 4 m in the next second, and 5 m in the third second. describe t

Answer: The horse is moving with a uniform acceleration

Explanation:

According to the described situation, we are dealing with a constant acceleration (also called uniform acceleration), since the horse's velocity is changingn by a constant rate.

Let's prove it:

Firstly we are told the horse follows a straight path. In addition we are given its velocity:

3 m/s, then 4 m/s and 5 m/s

Since acceleration $a$ is defined as the change of velocity in time we can calculate it:
