Wow ! This question reads like it might have come from one of
Faraday or Maxwell's original laboratory notebooks.

Choice-A is the correct one, when you consider what "conductance"
means. Conductance is just 1/resistance .

So when you see
"A) Current is proportionate to the conductance of the circuit and
precisely proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit."

what it's saying is
"Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit, and
directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit."

If you write the equation for all those words, it looks like

I = V / R

and that's correct.

Answer: C) Current is inversely proportional to the resistance of the circuit and directly proportional to the voltage applied across the circuit.

Explanation:

<u>Ohm's law</u> states that current is directly proportional to the potential difference across the circuit i.e. voltage.

I ∝ V

⇒ V = I R

where R is the resistance.

Current also depends on resistance offered by the circuit.

So, more the potential difference, more the current but more the resistance offered by the circuit, lesser current would flow.

Current is inversely proportional to the resistance and directly proportional to the voltage across the circuit. Voltage is provided by a cell or a battery. Resistance is offered by the wire and the components connected in the circuit. Sometimes the batteries also have internal resistance which adds up.

There are 5510 lines per centimeter in a grating that is used with light whose wavelegth is 467 nm. A flat observation screen is
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

1.696 nm

Explanation:

For a diffraction grating, dsinθ = mλ where d = number of lines per metre of grating = 5510 lines per cm = 551000 lines per metre and λ = wavelength of light = 467 nm = 467 × 10⁻⁹ m. For a principal maximum, m = 1. So,

dsinθ = mλ = (1)λ = λ

dsinθ = λ

sinθ = λ/d.

Also tanθ = w/D where w = distance of center of screen to principal maximum and D = distance of grating to screen = 1.03 m

From trig ratios 1 + cot²θ = cosec²θ

1 + (1/tan²θ) = 1/(sin²θ)

substituting the values of sinθ and tanθ we have

1 + (D/w)² = (d/λ)²

(D/w)² = (d/λ)² - 1

(w/D)² = 1/[(d/λ)² - 1]

(w/D) = 1/√[(d/λ)² - 1]

w = D/√[(d/λ)² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(551000/467 × 10⁻⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/√[(1179.87 × 10⁹ )² - 1] = 1.03 m/1179.87 × 10⁹  = 0.000848 × 10⁻⁹ = 0.848 × 10⁻¹² m = 0.848 nm.

w is also the distance from the center to the other principal maximum on the other side.

So for both principal maxima to be on the screen, its minimum width must be 2w = 2 × 0.848 nm = 1.696 nm

So, the minimum width of the screen must be 1.696 nm

If a battery is running down, a light bulb in the circuit will become dimmer because when voltage drops
lana [24]
A. There is less current flowing through the bulb.

Ohms law dictates that Electrical voltage = current x resistance. To understand current you would divide voltage by resistance. The less voltage the less current will run through the circuit.

Mark as brainliest if satisfied.

A 3.30 x 10-2-kg block is resting on a horizontal frictionless surface and is attached to a horizontal spring whose spring const
avanturin [10]

Answer:

0.17547 m

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 3.3\times 10^{-2}\ kg

v = Velocity of block = 10.8 m/s

k = Spring constant = 125 N/m

A = Amplitude

The kinetic energy of the system is conserved

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2\\\Rightarrow \\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{mv^2}{k}}\\\Rightarrow A=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.3\times 10^{-2}\times 10.8^2}{125}}\\\Rightarrow A=0.17547\ m

The amplitude of the resulting simple harmonic motion is 0.17547 m
