Answer:

B.) In a series circuit, as light bulbs are added, the bulbs dim.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, as light bulbs are added, the bulbs dim. In a series circuit the bulbs are wired in a line. As more bulbs are added in series, the current flowing through all the bulbs decreases. The bulbs then dim as more are added

On your first trip to Planet X you happen to take along a 280 g mass, a 40-cm-long spring, a meter stick, and a stopwatch. You'r

arsen [322]

Answer:

5.31143691523 m/s²

Explanation:

m = Mass = 280 g

x = Displacement of spring = 21.7 cm

Time period

$T=\dfrac{14}{11}\\\Rightarrow T=1.27\ s$

Angular velocity is given by

$\omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{T}\\\Rightarrow \omega=\dfrac{2\pi}{1.27}\\\Rightarrow \omega=4.94739\ rad/s$

$\omega=\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow k=\omega^2m\\\Rightarrow k=4.94739^2\times 0.28\\\Rightarrow k=6.85346698739\ N/m$

From Hooke's law

$mg=kx\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{kx}{m}\\\Rightarrow g=\dfrac{6.85346698739\times 0.217}{0.28}\\\Rightarrow g=5.31143691523\ m/s^2$

The acceleration due to gravity on the planet is 5.31143691523 m/s²

Yes, I have been able to satisfy my curiosity.

harina [27]

Answer:

$R=2.78\ \Omega$

Explanation:

Given that,

The current flowing in the circuit, I = 3 A

The power of the battery, P = 25 W

We need to find the resistance of the battery. We know that the power of the battery is given by the formula as follows :

$P=I^2R$

Put all the values to find R.

$R=\dfrac{P}{I^2}\\\\R=\dfrac{25}{(3)^2}\\\\R=2.78\ \Omega$

So, the resistance is equal to $2.78\ \Omega$ .

A 0.02kg dart is loaded into a toy spring gun by compressing the spring 6cm. If the spring has a constant of 20 N/m, find… a. Th

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

a) 0.036 J b) 0.036J c) 0.036 d) 1.9m/s e) 0.18 m

Explanation:

Mass of the dart = 0.02kg, the spring was compressed to 6cm

Work needed to compress the spring = 1/2*k*x ^2 where k is the force constant of the spring in N/m, x is the distance it was compressed in m

Work needed to compress the spring = 0.5 * 20* 0.06^2 since 6cm = 6 / 100 = 0.06 m

Work needed to compress the spring = 0.036J

b) the total energy stored in the spring = the work done to compress the spring = 0.036J

c) kinetic energy of the dart as it leaves the the spring = elastic potential energy stored in the spring = the work done in compressing the = 0.036J using the law of conservation of energy; energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another.

d) 1/2mv^2 = 0.036

mv^2 = 0.036*2

v^2 = 0.036*2 / 0.02 = 3.6

v = √3.6 = 1.897 approx 1.9m/s

e) kinetic energy of the dart = work done against gravity to get the body to height h

Work done against gravity = potential energy conserved at height = -mgh g is negative because the motion is upward while gravity acts downward

0.036 = 0.02 * 9.81 * h

0.036 / ( 0.02*9.81) = h

h = 0.18 m
