Answer:

B) The current of the entire circuit is lowered.

Explanation:

There are two ways in which a resistor can be connected in a circuit;

i) Series: In a series connection, resistors are connected end to end. In this arrangement, the current passing through each resistor is the same while the potential difference across each resistor is different.

ii) Parallel: In a parallel connection, resistors are connected to common junctions. In this arrangement, the potential difference across each resistor is the same while the current across each resistor varies.

In a series circuit, the effective resistance is the algebraic sum of resistance of all the resistors connected in series. Hence, if a large resistor is connected in series, the effective resistance of the circuit is greatly increased.

Since the voltage is given by;

V=IR (Ohm's law)

Where R is the effective resistance

Then;

I = V/R

If R becomes very large due to a large resistance connected in series, then the current of the entire circuit is lowered.

Answer:

The velocity is $v = c* \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{n^2} }$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

a = nb

The length of the minor axis of the symbol of the Federation, a circle, seen by the observer at velocity v must be equal to the minor axis(b) of the Empire's symbol, (an ellipse)

Now this length seen by the observer can be mathematically represented as

$h = t \sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} }$

Here t is the actual length of the major axis of of the Empire's symbol, (an ellipse)

So t = a = nb

and b is the length of the minor axis of the symbol of the Federation, (a circle) when seen by an observer at velocity v which from the question must be the length of the minor axis of the of the Empire's symbol, (an ellipse)

i.e h = b

$b = nb [\sqrt{1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2} } ]$

$[\frac{1}{n} ]^2 = 1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2}$

$v^2 =c^2 [1- \frac{1}{n^2} ]$

$v^2 =c^2 [\frac{n^2 -1}{n^2} ]$

$v = c* \sqrt{1 - \frac{1}{n^2} }$

A constant force is exerted for a short time interval on a cart that is initially at rest on an air track. This force gives the

Ilya [14]

Answer:

d) is the same as when it started from rest

Explanation:

using equation of motion

v = u + at

second law of momentum defines

F = ma

a = F /m

the equation becomes

v = u + (F/m)t

from hear

since v is directly proportional to the force and the force remain the same, the increase in the cart speed will also remain the same.

How far did a frog jump if he travels at a rate of 2.1 m/s for 10 seconds?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

21 m

Explanation:

The motion of the frog is a uniform motion (constant speed), therefore we can find the distance travelled by using

$d=vt$

where

d is the distance covered

v is the speed

t is the time

The frog in this problem has a speed of

v = 2.1 m/s

and therefore, after t = 10 s, the distance it covered is

$d=(2.1)(10)=21 m$

A comet is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun. Its closest approach to the Sun is a distance of 4.8 1010 m (inside the orbit

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

Distance $d_i = 4.8 \times 10^{10} \ m$

Speed of the comet $V_i = 9.1 \times 10^{4} \ m/s$

At distance $d_2 = 6 \times 10^{12} \ m$

where;

mass of the sun = $1.98 \times 10^{30}$

$G = 6.67 \times 10^{-11}$

To find the speed $V_f$ :

Using the formula:

$E_f = E_i + W \\ \\ where; \ \ W = 0 \ \ \text{since work done by surrounding is zero (0)}$

$E_f = E_i + 0 \\ \\ K_f + U_f = K_i + U_i \\ \\ = \dfrac{1}{2}mV_f^2 + \dfrac{-GMm}{d^2} = \dfrac{1}{2}mV_i^2+ \dfrac{-GMm}{d_i} \\ \\ V_f = \sqrt{V_i^2 + 2 GM \Big [ \dfrac{1}{d_2}- \dfrac{1}{d_i}\Big ]}$

$V_f = \sqrt{(9.1 \times 10^{4})^2 + 2 (6.67\times 10^{-11}) *(1.98 * 10^{30} ) \Big [ \dfrac{1}{6*10^{12}}- \dfrac{1}{4.8*10^{10}}\Big ]}$

$\mathbf{V_f =53.125 \times 10^4 \ m/s}$
