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.

How much support force does a table exert on a book that weighs 15 N when the book is placed on the table?
mestny [16]

Answer:

15 N

Explanation:

According to Newton's third law of motion, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. This reaction is equal in magnitude to the force acting but in an opposite direction.

Now, if the book weighs 15 N, an opposite equal force will be: N = -15 N

But the magnitude of this will be the absolute value which is 15N.

How would you respond to a person who argued that the Big Bang theory is incorrect because it is only a theory and theories have
Umnica [9.8K]

Well, you would reply that that's not what theories are. Theories explain the how and the why, laws explain the what. So, the Big Bang theory isn't "just a theory". It's a theory, it explains the how. (Also, if someone tells you it's anti-God or whatever, tell them the thoery was created by a Catholic scientist. True fact.) I hoped this helped!!! (You don't have the include who created the theory if this is for homework.)

Which of the following is the best definition of gravity?
IRISSAK [1]

In physics, gravity is the natural force that causes things to fall toward the earth. The noun gravity can also mean seriousness or solemnity. Someone who conducts themselves with an air of gravity is someone who takes what they are doing seriously.

The vehicles are fitted with shockers why​
MissTica

Shockers acts as a shock absorber in the vehicle making the ride comfortable. When vehicle goes on rough road then it gets shocks from the road deformities the springs present in the shockers provide counter force and thus making the vehicle stable ride without shock.
