Answer:

in the parallel connection the light bulbs shine less than in the series connection

Explanation:

In a series circuit the current through the whole circuit is the same, therefore the power (brightness) of each bulb is

P = i² R

where R is the resistance of each bulb and i the current of the circuit.

If we connect the light bulbs and the cells in parallel, the current in the circuit is the sum of the east that passes through each light bulb,

i = i₁ + i₂

if the two light bulbs are the same

i = 2 i₁

i₁ = i / 2

so the power of each bulb is is

P = i₁² R

P = R i² / 4

P = ¼ P_initial

Therefore we see that in the parallel connection the light bulbs shine less than in the series connection

Answer:

a) $V=\dfrac{5.3}{P}$

b) $ML^{-4}T^{-2}$ .

Explanation:

Given that

Boyle's law

P V = Constant ,at constant temperature

Given that

$P_1=50KPa$

$V_1=0.106m^3$

We know that for PV=C

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2=PV$

Now by putting the values

PV= 50 x 0.106

$V=\dfrac{5.3}{P}$

Where P is in KPa and V is in $m^3$

PV= C

Take ln both sides

So $\ln(PV)=\ln C$

lnP + lnV =lnC ( C is constant)

By differentiating

$\dfrac{dP}{P}+\dfrac{dV}{V}=0$

$\dfrac{dP}{dV}=-\dfrac{P}{V}$

When P= 50 KPa

$\dfrac{dP}{dV}=-\dfrac{50}{V}\ \dfrac{KPa}{m^3}$

It indicates the slope of PV=C curve.

It unit is $\dfrac{Pa}{m^3}$ .

Or we can say that $ML^{-4}T^{-2}$ .

To solve the problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the kinematic equations of the description of angular movement.

The angular velocity can be described as
