Answer:

The current decreases.

Explanation:

Current and resistance are inversely proportional. The equation connecting current, resistance and voltage is V = IR, where V is voltage, I is current and R is resistance.

Rearranging this equation, you get:

I = \frac{V}{R}

and

R = \frac{V}{I}

If the value of voltage in both equations remains constant, and the value of R decreases, the value of I will increase. Conversely, if in the second equation R = \frac{V}{I} , the value of V remains constant the value of I decreases, then the value of R, resistance will increase.

Thus, it can be seen that the current will decrease as resistance increases and vice versa.

Which of these common substances is a heterogeneous mixture?
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

<em>(C) If the composition of a mixture appears uniform no matter where you sample it, is homogeneous; sand on a beach *IS HETEROGENEOUS* because when you look at it up close, you can identify different types of particles, such as sand, shells, and organic matter.</em>

Explanation:

<em>(A) Pure Water is a collection of solely H2O molecules therefore Pure Water is classified as a *Compound*.</em>

<em>(B) Table Salt is NOT a heterogeneous mixture because the particles of salt can't be separated, and it is a *Pure Substance*.</em>

<em>(D) Maple Syrup is a homogeneous mixture because the solutes are fully dissolved and not easily identified. In other words, Maple Syrup is uniform throughout.</em>

<em>-Hope this helps!</em>

List several examples of applied force, normal force, and friction that you’ve observed in your life.
grandymaker [24]

applied forces would be push for example.

normal forces would seem to be a force such as gravity.

friction for example when you try to slide on carpet but the fabric or whatever its made of stops you.

This illustration shows two opposing forces pulling on a wagon. Which description best describes how the wagon will move?
Talja [164]

Answer:

The wagon will move to the right.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 30 N

Direction of the wagon =.?

To determine the direction in which the wagon will move, we shall determine the net force acting on the wagon. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 30 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fᵣ – Fₗ

Fₙ = 30 – 10

Fₙ = 20 N to the right

From the calculations made above, the net force acting on the wagon is 20 N to the right. Hence the wagon will move to the right.
