Answer:

the current flowing in each is the same.

Explanation:

When resistors are connected in series, they are connected in the same branch of the circuit - this means that the same current flows through each resistor.

The other options listed are wrong because:

the same power is dissipated in each one --> false: the power dissipated in each resistor is P=I^2 R, where I is the current and R the resistance, so it depends on the value of the resistance

the potential difference across each is the same.-- > false: this is true in parallel circuits, not series circuits

the equivalent resistance of the circuit is less than that of the smallest resistor.--> false: the equivalent resistance of a series circuit is the sum of the individual resistances: R = R_1 + R_2 + ..., so it is larger than the resistance of the smallest resistance

the equivalent resistance of the circuit is equal to the average of all the resistances. --> false: the equivalent resistance of a series circuit is the sum of the individual resistances: R = R_1 + R_2 + ..., not the average

A player hits a ball with a bat. The action is the force of the bat against the ball.
Daniel [21]

Answer:

Force of the ball against the bat

Explanation:

Newton's third law of motion states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When a player hits a ball with a bat, the force the player exerted on the ball through the bat gave the ball a push force in the forward direction. This is an action force. Now that an action has been initiated, there must be a reaction according to Newton's third law of motion. The magnitude of the force on the ball equals the magnitude of the force on the bat. The direction of the force on the ball is opposite to the direction of the force on the ball. The ball will give the bat an equal and opposite force trying to push the bat backward by resisting the impact of the bat. This is the reaction. The ball will only move if the applied force is able to overcome the resisting force by the bat.

Where;

is the action force of the bat against the ball.

is the equal and opposite reaction force of the ball towards the ball.

How many calories are needed to raise the temperature of 2g of water 3 C?
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The number of calories needed is 6c.

Explanation:

The amount of energy Q needed to raise the temperature \Delta T of water of mass m is

Q = mC\Delta T

where C = 1cal/g\cdot C is the specific heat capacity of water.

Putting in numbers into equation (1), we get:

Q = (2g)(1)(3^oC )\\

\boxed{Q = 6\:cal }

which is the number of calories needed.

What are some ways that light can be controlled and what does it do to the light
marusya05 [52]
-- pass the light through a lens
The path of the light is bent (refracted) to a new direction.

-- bounce the light off a shiny surface
The light is sent back (reflected) in the direction from which it arrived.

-- pass the light through a prism
The light is spread out according to the different wavelengths
that may be in it.

-- put something black in the light's path
The light is completely absorbed and is never seen again.

-- turn the light off
The source stops emitting light.

-- throw a towel over the lamp
The light is absorbed in the towel, and not seen outside of it.

How far can your little brother get if he can travel at 2.5 m/s and in 5?
KatRina [158]

d=? v=2.5 u=0 and t=5 therefore the formula to be used to find the distance my brother covered is d=1/2(v-u)t

d=1/2(2.5-0)5

=6.15m
