<span>When two or more identical capacitors (or resistors) are connected
in series across a potential difference, the potential difference divides
equally among them.
For example, if you have nine identical capacitors (or resistors) all
connected end-to-end like elephants in a circus parade, and you
connect the string to a source of 117 volts (either AC or DC), then
you will measure
(117v / 9) = 13 volts
across each unit in the string.</span>
Answer:
The students conclusion is wrong.
Explanation:
The students conclusion is wrong because liquids can not soak into concrete. The water evaporated because it was a hot sunny day. The water turned into a gas called water vapor.
Answer:
Letter b is wavelength. Letter a is amplitude.
Explanation:
Let's imagine a simple experiment. Imagine you have a long thick rope which one end is at your hands, and you start an oscillatory motion in it, moving your hand up and down. Then a friend of you take a picture of the rope in motion, looking at the rope laterally. Now let's find the wavelength and amplitude. Amplitude is "The distance from the center of the oscillation of the rope (when the rope was not in motion) to its high or low point", or the vertical displacement, in our experiment. On the other hand, wavelength is "The distance between one high point /low point and the next high point /low point". Take a look at a photo of a wave in your textbook and you will find the answer as well. ; )
Answer:
a) 3.33 ns
b) Water distance = 0.75 m
Glass distance = 0.66 m
Diamond distance = 0.41 m
Explanation:
We take the speed of light, c = m/s.
Speed = distance/time
Time = distance/speed
a)
t = 3.33 ns
b)
Refractive index, n = speed of light in vacuum / speed of light in medium
Thus, the distance traveled in the same time is numerically equal to the reciprocal of the refractive index.
For water n = 1.333
d = 1/1.333 = 0.75 m
For glass n = 1.517
d = 0.66 m
For diamond n = 2.417
d = 0.41 m
