Answer:

Parallel

Explanation:

Most standard 120-volt household circuits in your home are (or should be) parallel circuits. Outlets, switches, and light fixtures are wired in such a way that the hot and neutral wires maintain a continuous circuit pathway independent from the individual devices that draw their power from the circuit.

Hope that helps :)

A 0.50-kg croquet ball is initially at rest on the grass. When the ball is struck by a mallet, the average force exerted on it i

NeTakaya

The impulse given to the ball is equal to the change in its momentum:

J = ∆p = (0.50 kg) (5.6 m/s - 0) = 2.8 kg•m/s

This is also equal to the product of the average force and the time interval ∆t :

J = F(ave) ∆t

so that if F(ave) = 200 N, then

∆t = J / F(ave) = (2.8 kg•m/s) / (200 N) = 0.014 s

A rocket passes you at a speed of 0.85c, and you measure its length to be 35.0 m. What is its measured length when at rest?

viktelen [127]

Answer:

66.4 m

Explanation:

To solve the problem, we can use the length contraction formula, which states that the length observed in the reference frame moving with the object (the rocket) is given by

$L=L_0 \sqrt{1-(\frac{v}{c})^2}$
