Does a break in one branch affect another branch in a parallel circuit

No. Parallel branches have the same potential difference across them. A break in one does not affect the other.

Identify how the energy flows up through the ecosystem. Describe how decomposers help to cycle matter in an ecosystem and their
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Decomposers are organisms that break down dead or decaying organisms, they carry out decomposition, a process possible by only certain kingdoms, such as fungi. Like herbivores and predators, decomposers are heterotrophic, meaning that they use organic substrates to get their energy, carbon and nutrients for growth and development. While the terms decomposer and detritivore are often interchangeably used, detritivores ingest and digest dead matter internally, while decomposers directly absorb nutrients through external chemical and biological processes. Thus, invertebrates such as earthworms, woodlice, and sea cucumbers are technically detritivores, not decomposers, since they must ingest nutrients - they are unable to absorb them externally.

What is the change in momentum of a 50-kg rock that falls freely for 3 seconds?
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

1470kgm/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the rock = 50kg

Time taken for the free fall  = 3s

Unknown:

Change in momentum = ?

Solution:

The change in momentum will be difference between the ending momentum and finishing momentum.

  Momentum is the product of mass and velocity

       Momentum  = mass x velocity

Initial momentum  = 0, the velocity is 0

Final momentum = mass x final velocity

      let us find the final velocity;

                V = U + gt

V is the final velocity

U is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s²

t is the time

                 V  = 0 + 9.8x3 = 29.4m/s

So;

 Change in momentum  = 50 x 29,4  = 1470kgm/s

What's a difference between mercury and oxygen?<br> (They both are elements)
borishaifa [10]

--  There are 80 protons in the nucleus of every atom of Mercury,
but only 8 of them in the nucleus of an atom of Oxygen.

-- Mercury must be warmer than 357°C in order to boil, but Oxygen
must only be warmer than -183°C.

--  Mercury must be colder than -39°C in order to freeze, but Oxygen
must be colder than -219°C.

--  Oxygen is required for human life.  Mercury is a deadly poison.

A 4.10 g bullet moving at 837 m/s strikes a 820 g wooden block at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet emerges, traveling
atroni [7]

Answer:

(a) 1.85 m/s

(b) 4.1 m/s

Explanation:

Data

  • bullet mass, Mb = 4.10 g
  • initial bullet velocity, Vbi = 837 m/s
  • wooden block mass, Mw = 820 g
  • initial wooden block  velocity, Vwi = 0 m/s
  • final bullet velocity, Vbf = 467 m/s

(a) From the conservation of momentum:

Mb*Vbi + Mw*Vwi = Mb*Vbf + Mw*Vwf

Mb*(Vbi - Vbf)/Mw = Vwf

4.1*(837 - 467)/820 = Vwf

Vwf = 1.85 m/s

(b) The speed of the center of mass speed is calculated as follows:

V = Mb/(Mb + Mw) * Vbi

V = 4.1/(4.1 + 820) * 837

V = 4.1 m/s

The graph below represents the motion of four cars, labeled W, X, Y, and Z.
ycow [4]

Answer:

Answer is A

Explanation:

As we know , for constant velocity we get a straight line.

The formula for this problem is s = vt which is similar to a straight line formula like y = mx + c.

If we put here c = 0 we get the formula for distance and velocity.

So the answer is A.
