I thought you were going to ask for the resistance of the unknown
series resistor.  Since you only want the equivalent resistance of the
circuit, you don't even need to know the resistance of the lamp.

I = E / R

Current through the circuit = (voltage of the battery) / (circuit resistance).
  
                                                  0.5 = (12) / R

Multiply each side by  'R' :    (0.5) R = 12

Multiply each side by  2 :      <em>R = 24 ohms</em>


(Since the resistance of the lamp is 10 ohms, the
unknown series resistor is the other 14 ohms.)

How did the magnet’s density measurement using the Archimedes’ Principle compare to the density measurement using the calculated
guapka [62]

Answer:

The two methods will yield different results as one is subject to experimental errors that us the Archimedes method of measurement, the the density measurement method will be more accurate

Explanation:

This is because the density method using the calculated volume will huve room for less errors that's occur in practical method i.e Archimedes method due to human error

When a gun is fired at the shooting range, the gun recoils (moves backward). Explain this using the law of conservation of momen
12345 [234]
The total momentum is unchanged according to the law of conservation of momentum. When the gun is fired, the bullet gains a high velocity forward (positive velocity), and that velocity multiplied by its mass is the momentum the bullet gains. Therefore, the gun must gain a momentum backwards to cancel out that momentum forward, so the gun recoils back with a negative velocity.

______ 4. Justin was creating a chart comparing the potential energy between charged particles and the potential energy of magne
fredd [130]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. The potential energy between both like charges and like poles increases as they move closer together

Explanation:

Here we have that when we move the like poles of two bar magnets close to each other, there is an increased resistance in the continuing motion, therefore for each extra gap closer achieved, there is an increase in potential energy

Similarly, when two like charges are brought closer together, the potential energy, or the energy available to push the two like charges apart increases charge as the as the charges are brought closer together

Therefore, the correct option is the potential energy between both like charges and like poles increases as they move closer together.
