In order to make things easier to describe and explain, let's call
the resistance of each bulb 'R', and the battery voltage 'V'.
a). In series, the total resistance is 3R.
In parallel, the total resistance is R/3.
Changing from series to parallel, the total resistance of the circuit
decreases to 1/9 of its original value.
b). In series, the total current is V / (3R) .
In parallel, the total current is 3V / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the total current in the circuit
increases to 9 times its original value.
c). In series, the power dissipated by the circuit is
(V) · V/3R = V² / 3R .
In parallel, the power dissipated by the circuit is
(V) · 3V/R = 3V² / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the power dissipated by
the circuit (also the power delivered by the battery) increases
to 9 times its original value.
Answer:
sorry about the other person but its b
Explanation:
Explanation:
Since the balloon is not accelerating means that the net force on the balloon is zero. This implies that the weight of balloon must be equal to the buoyant force on balloon.
Hence, the buoyant force equals the weight of air displaced by the balloon, also 20,000 N.
Weight of the air displaced = density of air × volume
The density of air at 1 atm pressure and 20º C is 1.2 kg/m³
the volume V = 20,000/(1.2×9.8) = 1700 m³
