Answer: The other lamps will go out as well because the series circuit only has one path along which current can travel.

hope this helps :3

Answer:

Yes, the other lamps will be affected.

Explanation:

Since lamp is connected in series circuit and in series the same current flows throughout the supply and the current is not divide and flows through a particular path.

So, if the supply across any one circuit element is interrupted then this result in the interruption of supply to the whole circuit. In series current is same throughout but the voltage or potential difference across each circuit element varies as the resistance or reactance of that element varies and remain independent of the current.

Thus if one lamp in series burns out, all other lamps will also be disconnected due to the discontinuity of the current as the circuit is interrupted as a result of burn out.

What is the most likely reason that two of the planets have rotations that are different than would be expected by the nebular h

marusya05 [52]

The most appropriate answer is "As the growing planet was clearing its path around the sun, two large planetessimals collided, tipping the growing planet". This phenomenon happened to the earth in the early stages of the development of the solar system. Scientist theorize that a planet called 'Thea' collided with the Earth. This collision resulted in the present tilt in the Earth's axis and the creation of the moon.

Find the measure of the missing angles

lyudmila [28]

Answer:
c=49 degrees
b=131 degrees

Explanation:
Angle c and the angle that measures 49 degrees are opposite angles. Opposite angles are equal to each other, so we can conclude that angle c is equal to 49 degrees.

c=49 degrees

Angle c and angle b are both sitting on a straight line, and a straight line has an angle measure of 180 degrees. To find angle b, we can subtract 49 from 180.

b=180-49
b=131 degrees

Therefore,
c=49 degrees
b=131 degrees

I hope this helps!

Where is the world, or better yet, Earth?

mash [69]

Answer:

In its most general sense, the term "world" refers to the totality of entities, to the whole of reality or to everything that is. The nature of the world has been conceptualized differently in different fields. Some conceptions see the world as unique while others talk of a "plurality of worlds".
