Answer:
D. If a home were wired in series, every light and appliance would have to be turned on in order for any light or appliance to work.
Explanation:
In a series circuit, all the appliances are connected on the same branch of the circuit, one after the other. This means that the current flowing throught them is the same. However, this means also that if one of the appliance is turned off (so, its switch is open), that appliance breaks the circuit, so the current can no longer flow through the other appliances either.
On the contrary, when the appliances are connected in parallel, they are connected in different branches, so if one of them is switched off, the other branches continue working unaffacted by it.

In layman's term: </span>like charges don't attract while opposite charges do<span>electrostatic forces between point A( which is charged) and point B (which is also charged) are proportional to the charge of point A and point B. </span><span>there is also something else about this law that I don't quite remember.</span>
<span>___________________________________________________</span>
<span />Here is the formula:
<span>F = k x Q1 x Q2/d^<span>2</span></span>
<span>What the formula means:</span>
F=force between charges
Q1 and Q2= amount of charge
d=distance between these two charges
k= Coulombs constant (proportionally constant)

I think that about covers it and hopefully this helped.
Answer:
about 4 km
Explanation:
15 minutes is a quarter of an hour, so you divide 16km by 4 to get your answer
Answer:
Both objects will undergo the same change in velocity
Explanation:
m = Mass of the Earth = 5.972 × 10²⁴ kg
G = Gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³/kgs²
r = Radius of Earth = 6371000 m
m = Mass of object
Any object which is falling has only the acceleration due to gravity.
The acceleration due to gravity on Earth is 9.81364 m/s²
So, the speeds of the objects will change at an equal rate of 9.81364 m/s² but the change will be negative when an object is thrown up.
Hence, both objects will undergo the same change in velocity.
Answer:
Explanation:
If we assume there is a sharp boundary between the two masses of air, there will be a refraction. The refractive index of each medium will depend on the relative speeds of light.
n = c / v
If light travels faster in warmer air, it will have a lower refractive index
nh < nc
Snell's law of refraction relates angles of incidence and refracted with the indexes of refraction:
n1 * sin(θ1) = n2 * sin(θ2)
sin(θ2) = sin(θ1) * n1/n2
If blue light from the sky passing through the hot air will cross to the cold air, then
n1 = nh
n2 = nc
Then:
n1 < n2
So:
n1/n2 < 1
The refracted light will come into the cold air at angle θ2 wich will be smaller than θ1, so the light is bent upwards, creating the appearance of water in the distance, which is actually a mirror image of the sky.
