Why does a Parallel Circuit still continue to function after a switch turns off one bulb but continues to pass through the secon

d bulb? (please be as specific as possible)​

Explanation:

In short, when we switch off a branch, the remaining branch still forms a complete circuit with the battery, so electricity still pass through the remaining branch.

Technically speaking, the voltage in each branch is the same, and the resistance of the light bulb remains unchanged (neglect effect of temp.) by V=IR, the current should remain unchanged after switching off the other branch.

A block of mass m rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. A cord attached to the block passes over a pulley whose radius is
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the tension in the cord be T₁ and T₂  .

for motion of block placed on horizontal table

T₁ = m a  , a is acceleration of the whole system .

for motion of hanging bucket of mass m

mg - T₂ = ma

adding the two equation

mg + T₁- T₂ = 2ma

for rotational motion of the pulley

torque = moment of inertia x angular acceleration

(T₂ - T₁) R = I x α , I is moment of inertia of pulley , α is angular acceleration .

(mg - 2ma ) R = I x α

(mg - 2ma ) R = I x a / R

(mg - 2ma ) R² = I x a

mgR² =  2ma R² + I x a

a = mgR² / (2m R² + I )

Since body moves by distance d in time T

d = 1/2 a T²

a = 2d / T²

mgR² / (2m R² + I ) = 2d / T²

mgR²T² = 2d x (2m R² + I )

mgR²T² -  4dm R² =  2dI

m R² ( gT² - 4d ) = 2dI

I =  m R² ( gT² - 4d ) ] / 2d .

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

2000years

Explanation:

We will either convert the distance to centimeters or speed to meters/second.

Converting distance to centimeters: 100 meters= 100*100centimeters =10000centimeters.

time=distance/speed

t=10000/5=2000 years
