Which statement is true for a series circuit?

Physics

Each of those choices has some truth to it, but three of the five choices also include some nonsense.

A.  The voltage <em>divides proportionally</em> among all resistors in the circuit.

<em>B.  </em> As more resistors are added, the current will decrease.   <em>True,</em> because the total resistance will increase.

C.   The <em>sum </em>of the voltage drops will be the total voltage in the circuit.

D.   The current is the same <em>through</em> all resistors in the circuit.

<em>E. </em>  The equivalent resistance will be greater than the individual resistors.  <em>True,</em> because the equivalent resistance is the sum of the individual resistors.

A light wave encounters a partial physical barrier, such as a wall with a hole in it. What is MOST LIKELY to occur?
tatiyna
Most likely, the light wave will be absorbed by the wall. Without any information as to the size and color of the wall, the location and size of the hole, or the location of the light wave, this is a generalized probability problem. For all of the places the light could be, it's more likely that it hits the wall than the hole (if the hole is less than 50% of the area of the wall).

Help me define this please<br><br> Latitude (Tropical vs Temperate vs Polar)
morpeh [17]

Answer: Tropical Zone

The tropical climate zone stretches from the Tropic of Cancer at 23.5 degrees north latitude to the Tropic of Capricorn at 23.5 degrees south latitude, with the equator centered within this zone. Climate within the tropical zone varies from the tropical wet regions of the rain forest, to the drier arid and semi-arid climate of north Africa or central Australia. Within the tropical wet zone, the weather remains hot and muggy, with frequent rainfall and little temperature variation. The arid and semi-arid regions experience wet, warm summers and cooler, drier winters, with much greater temperature variation than the tropical wet zone.

Temperate Zone

Extending from the southern edge of the Arctic Circle to the Tropic of Cancer in the northern hemisphere, and the northern edge of the Antarctic Circle to the Tropic of Capricorn in the southern hemisphere, the temperate climate zone falls between 23.5 degrees and 66.5 degrees north and south latitudes. Temperate climate zones experience warm to hot summers and cool winters, with the greatest temperature variations throughout the year of any climate zone. Climate within the temperate regions ranges from the cold, snowy winters of New England to the balmy, moderate weather associated with the Mediterranean or Southern California. Much of the United States, Europe and the southern half of South America fall within this climate zone.

Polar Zone

The polar climate zones fill the areas within the Arctic and Antarctic Circles, extending from 66.5 degrees north and south latitude to the poles. Characterized by a short, cool summer and long, bitterly cold winter, the polar zone features frequent snowfall, particularly during the winter months. The far northern portions of Canada, Europe and Russia fall within this climate zone. Farther north and south, the ice caps that make up Greenland and Antarctica represent a sub-zone of the polar climate region known as the ice cap zone. Within the ice caps, temperatures rarely, if ever, rise above freezing, even during the warmest months of the years.

A 65 kg woman is inside an elevator. (A) Calculate her apparent weight (normal force) in Newtons if the elevator moves at consta
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

W = 637 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use Newton's second law

         F -W = m a

where F is the force, m the mass and the acceleration

in this case the force is the weight of the body and as the elevator goes at constant speed the acceleration is zero

         F = W

         a = 0

       

          F = W

          W = m g

          W = 65 9.8

          W = 637 N

A visitor to a lighthouse wishes to determine the height of the tower. She ties a spool of thread to a small rock to make a simp
masha68 [24]

To solve this problem we must rely on the equations of the simple harmonic movement that define the period as a function of length and gravity as

T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

Where

l = Length

g = Gravity

Re-arrange to find L,

L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2

Our values are given as

g = 9.81m/s

T = 10.1s

Replacing,

L = g (\frac{T}{2\pi})^2

L = (9.81) (\frac{10.1}{2\pi})^2

L = 25.348m

Therefore the height would be 25.348m
