Experimental Evidence.
Scientists conduct experiments or observations to gather evidence that either support or disprove a given hypothesis. Hence, all the scientific explanations are based on this body of observations.
Answer:
(a) 42 N
(b)36.7 N
Explanation:
Nomenclature
F= force test line (N)
W : fish weight (N)
Problem development
(a) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled in at constant speed
We apply Newton's first law of equlibrio because the system moves at constant speed:
∑Fy =0
F-W= 0
42N -W =0
W = 42N
(b) Calculating of weight of the heaviest fish that can be pulled up vertically, when the line is reeled with an acceleration whose magnitude is 1.41 m/s²
We apply Newton's second law because the system moves at constant acceleration:
m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity
∑Fy =m*a
m= W/g , m= W/9.8 , m:fish mass , W: fish weight g:acceleration due to gravity
F-W= ( W/9.8 )*a
42-W= ( W/9.8 )*1.41
42= W+0.1439W
42=1.1439W
W= 42/1.1439
W= 36.7 N
Average speed = total distance travelled ÷ total time taken
AS = (75km + 68km) ÷ (1hr + 2hr)
As = 143km ÷ 3hr
AS = 47.66667 km/hr
AS = 47.7 km/hr (3sf)
In a series circuit, all of the components are connected in the same 'loop' and the current only has one direction/path it can flow through.
In the first three options, the current has multiple paths it can go through. So these three circuits are parallel and not series.
In the last option, the current only has one path where it can flow through, so that circuit is in series.
So Circuit <u>D </u>is a series circuit.
