Answer:

Explanation

The most famous and common example is Christmas tree lights. You can't tell easily by looking at them whether they are in series or parallel. But you sure know the difference when one of them burns out. When that happens, the whole string goes dead. No matter what you do (other than find out which bulb burned out) will not fix the problem.

Another example is anything that is temperature controlled. For example a furnace is controlled by a thermostat. When the room temperature reaches a certain point, the thermostat is constructed in a certain way so that it forms an open circuit and no current can flow through it. The furnace motor turns off and the furnace stops pumping hot air into a room.

The purpose of this lab is to explore the various ways to calculate projectile velocity using horizontal, vertical and angle inf

kolezko [41]

Answer: A projectile is any object in which the only force is gravity

Explanation: Equations on how to calculate projectile velocity is stated below:

The initial velocity Vo being a vector quantity, has two componentsVox and Voy

V0x = V0 cos(θ)

V0y = V0 sin(θ)

The acceleration A is a also a vector with two components Axand Ay given

Ax = 0 and Ay = - g = - 9.8 m/s2

Along the x axis the acceleration is equal to 0 and therefore the velocity Vx is constant

Vx = Vocos(θ)

Along the y axis, the acceleration is uniform and equal to - g and the velocity at time t is g

Vy = Vo sin(θ) - g t

Along the x axis the velocity Vx is constant and therefore the component x of the displacement is

x = Vocos(θ) t

Along the y axis, the motion is of uniform acceleration and the y component of the displacement is

y = Vo sin(θ) t - (1/2) g t2

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! CORRECT ANSWER ONLY PLEASE!!!

Charra [1.4K]

Power = Work / time

The work given here is 83J and the time it took to do 83J of work was 3s

So..

Power = 83J / 3s

Power = 27.67 W or 27.7 W

According to the intuitive guess you just made, is the overall momentum of the two-cart system after the collision greater than,

Aloiza [94]

Answer:

It is equal to the overall momentum before collision, so far no external object is involved.

Explanation:

Momentum is always conserved during collision as a rule. This is equal to the product of the mass and velocity. Thank you.

An electron with speed 2.45 x 10^7 m/s is traveling parallel to a uniform electric field of magnitude 1.18 x 10^4N/C . How much

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

time will elapse before it return to its staring point is 23.6 ns

Explanation:

given data

speed u = 2.45 × $10^{7}$ m/s

uniform electric field E = 1.18 × $10^{4}$ N/C

to find out

How much time will elapse before it returns to its starting point

solution

we find acceleration first by electrostatic force that is

F = Eq

here

F = ma by newton law

ma = Eq

here m is mass , a is acceleration and E is uniform electric field and q is charge of electron

put here all value

9.11 × $10^{-31}$ kg ×a = 1.18 × $10^{4}$ × 1.602 × $10^{-19}$

a = 20.75 × $10^{14}$ m/s²

so acceleration is 20.75 × $10^{14}$ m/s²

and

time required by electron before come rest is

use equation of motion

v = u + at

here v is zero and u is speed given and t is time so put all value

2.45 × $10^{7}$ = 0 + 20.75 × $10^{14}$ (t)

t = 11.80 × $10^{-9}$ s

so time will elapse before it return to its staring point is

time = 2t

time = 2 ×11.80 × $10^{-9}$

time is 23.6 × $10^{-9}$ s

time will elapse before it return to its staring point is 23.6 ns
