Hernando builds a simple DC series circuit with a standard D-cell battery and uses an ammeter to determine that the total curren

t in the system is 3.0 A. In an attempt to increase the brightness of the bulbs in the circuit, he tries to increase the voltage by adding two more batteries (in series with the first). Calculate the new current when driven by three batteries.

Answer: I = 9.0 A

Explanation: <u>Ohm's</u> <u>Law</u> is defined as the relationship between voltage and current: in a circuit, the voltage accross a conductor is directly proportional to the current.

The constant of proportionality is Resistance, whose unit is ohm (Ω).

so, Ohm's Law is

V = R.I

It is asked for the current, so, rearraging:

I=\frac{V}{R}

When added two more batteries, the voltage of the circuit triples:

V_{final}=3V_{initial}

Since they are directly proportional, if voltage triples, so does current:

I_{final}=3I_{initial}

I_{final}=3(3.0)

I_{final}= 9.0

The new current, when driven by 3 batteries is 9.0 A.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Chemical composition, Temperature, Radial velocity, Size or diameter of the star, Rotation.

Explanation:  

Elemental abundances are determined by analyzing the relative strengths of the absorption lines in the spectrum of a star.

The Spectral class to which the star belongs gives the information related to the temperature of the star. It is the spectral lines that determine the spectral class O B A F G K M are the spectral classes.

By measuring the wavelengths of the lines in the star's spectrum gives the radial velocity. Doppler shift is the method used to find the radial velocity.

A star can be classified as a giant or a dwarf . A giant star will have narrow width spectral lines whereas a dwarf star has wider spectral lines.

Broadening of the spectral lines will determine the star's rotation.

An interference pattern is produced by light with a wavelength 580 nm from a distant source incident on two identical parallel s
irakobra [83]

Answer:

Explanation:

1 )

Here

wave length used that is λ = 580 nm

=580 x 10⁻⁹

distance between slit d = .46 mm

= .46 x 10⁻³

Angular position of first order interference maxima

= λ / d radian

= 580 x 10⁻⁹ / .46 x 10⁻³

= 0.126 x 10⁻² radian

2 )

Angular position of second order interference maxima

2 x  0.126 x 10⁻² radian

= 0.252 x 10⁻² radian

3 )

For intensity distribution the formula is

I = I₀ cos²δ/2 ( δ is phase difference of two lights.

For angular position of θ1

δ = .126 x 10⁻² radian

I = I₀ cos².126x 10⁻²/2

= I₀ X .998

For angular position of θ2

I = I₀ cos².126x2x 10⁻²/2

=  I₀ cos².126x 10⁻²
