What is a series circuit? (Definition)

1 answer:

3 0

A series circuit is a circuit in which resistors are arranged in a chain, so the current has only one path to take. The current is the same through each resistor. The total resistance of the circuit is found by simply adding up the resistance values of the individual resistors:

Hydrogen gas (H2) can be found in trace amounts in Earth’s atmosphere.

a. Hydrogen is found in acids.
b. Hydrogen gas is highly flammable.
c. Hydrogen reacts with oxygen to form water.
These are true, but they all describe chemical properties
of Hydrogen, not physical properties.

d. Hydrogen gas is less dense than oxygen gas.
Yes ! This is a physical property of Hydrogen.

Answer:

1) not so long (maybe an hour or two)

2) access to information through the internet will be most affected if my computer and mobile phone run out of battery power.

3) yes, one should prepare for power outage. This can be done by having a standby alternative source of power like the use of inverters that stores electrical energy in form of chemical energy, and small internal combustion engine powered electric generators.

4) solar panels can be used to draw power from incident sun rays, this power can be stored in an inverter for future use in case of a power outage.

5) energy from the sun is converted into direct current which is then supplied to an accumulator in the opposite direction to its flow of current. When the energy is needed, it can be used directly, or converted to an alternating current. This is achieved by connecting its terminal to the supply. Electric field is generated by flow of ions and electrons within the working chemical (e.g lithium).

Intelligence tests that are given to participants in groups

White raven [17]

a. are typically paper-and-pencil measures.

Similar with psychological tests, mostly structured personality tests.

Psychological tests comes two ways: 
The structure psychological tests or, objectives tests and unstructured psychological tests or, also called projective tests. By what you are referring the responder strongly asserts a projective tests which in definition comes with an unambiguous stimuli or no paper test just drawings and images. If what the responder’s suggesting is correct you are referring to the Rorschach projective tests, these tests are a figure symmetrically placed in an inkblot that lets you visualize or create a mental picture out of it, and makes you describe what you in see much detail as you can.

A pendulum is made by letting a 4 kg mass swing at the end of a string that has a length of 1.5 meter. The maximum angle that th

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Approximately $7.8\; \rm J$ .

Explanation:

The change in the gravitational potential energy of the pendulum is directly related to the change in its height.

Refer to the sketch attached. The pendulum is initially at $\rm P_2$ . Its highest point is at $P_1$ . The length of segment $\rm BP_2$ gives the change in its height.

The lengths of $\rm AP_1$ and $\rm AP_2$ are simply the length of the string, $1.5\; \rm m$ . To find the length of $\rm BP_2$ , start by calculating the length of $\rm AB$ .

$\rm AB$ forms a leg in the right triangle $\rm \triangle AP_1B$ . Besides, it is adjacent to the $30^\circ$ angle $\rm P_1\hat{A}B$ . Its length would be:
