How does increasing the number of resistors in a parallel branch change the total resistance of the system?

Physics

timofeeve [1]3 years ago

As more and more resistors are added in parallel to a circuit, the equivalent resistance of the circuit decreases and the total current of the circuit increases. Adding more resistors in parallel is equivalent to providing more branches through which charge can flow.

A competitive go-cart driver is traveling 32 m/s. He sees a caution flag go up, so he slows at a rate of -1.5 m/s^2 in 10.8 s. W
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

15.8 m/s

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 32 m/s.

Acceleration (a) = – 1.5 m/s²

Time (t) = 10.8 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

Acceleration is simply defined as the rate of change of velocity with time. Mathematically, it is expressed as:

Acceleration (a) = [final velocity (v) – initial velocity (u)] / time (t)

a = (v – u) /t

With the above formula, we can obtain the final velocity of go-cart driver as follow:

Initial velocity (u) = 32 m/s.

Acceleration (a) = – 1.5 m/s²

Time (t) = 10.8 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

a = (v – u) /t

– 1.5 = (v – 32) / 10.8

Cross multiply

(v – 32) = –1.5 × 10.8

v – 32 = – 16.2

Collect like terms

v = – 16.2 + 32

v = 15.8 m/s

Therefore, the final velocity of go-cart driver is 15.8 m/s.

How we can see different colors by our eyes?
IrinaVladis [17]

I DID A Science PROJECT ON THIS >:)))

basically light travels into the eye to the retina located on the back of the eye. the retina is covered withe millions of light sensitive cells called Rods and cones. when these cells detect light they send signals to the brain that help detect color.

the color of an object is determined by the wavelengths of light that it reflects. it's determined by the arrangement of electrons in the atoms of that substance that will absorb and re-emit photons of particular energies according to quantum laws.

2 litre of water at is poured into a plastic bucket containing 10 litre of water at 20 degree Celsius.What is the final temperat
Valentin [98]

Answer:30^{\circ}

Explanation:

Given

v_1=2 liter

volume of water in bucket v_2=10 liter

density of water \rho =1 kg/liter

thus m_1=\rho \cdot v_1=2 kg

m_2=\rho \cdot v_2=10 kg

T_2=20^{\circ}C

suppose T_1=80^{\circ}C

Conserving heat energy i.e. heat lost by water is gained by water in bucket

m_1cT_1+m_2cT_2=(m_1+m_2)T

where T=final Temperature

T=\frac{m_1T_1+m_2T_2}{m_1+m_2}

T=\frac{160+200}{12}

T=30^{\circ}C
