There is said to be a short circuit when

Physics
1 answer:
DaniilM [7]2 years ago
6 0

A short circuit is said to have occurred when two nodes of a circuit at different voltages are abnormally connected

There is said to be a short circuit when; <u>One part of a parallel circuit has a very low resistance and almost all the current will flow through this part and very little current will flow through the other part</u>

<u />

The correct option is option B.

Reason:

A circuit has to be closed or the the current path has to be closed for

current to flow. A short circuit occurs when current in a circuit flows

through an abnormal path, such as a bridge in a connection to a load that

creates a parallel path for current flow.

Almost all the current flows through the parallel path due to the low

resistance in the connection (almost zero) and the proximity to the power

source, thereby preventing current from reaching its intended destination

Therefore, the correct option is option B.;

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 2.3 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.034 m, using a string of length 0
ycow [4]

Answer:

T = 764.41 N

Explanation:

In this case the tension of the string is determined by the centripetal force. The formula to calculate the centripetal force is given by:

F_c=m\frac{v^2}{r}  (1)

m: mass object = 2.3 kg

r: radius of the circular orbit = 0.034 m

v: tangential speed of the object

However, it is necessary to calculate the velocity v first. To find v you use the formula for the kinetic energy:

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

You have the value of the kinetic energy (13.0 J), then, you replace the values of K and m, and solve for v^2:

v^2=\frac{2K}{m}=\frac{2(13.0J)}{2.3kg}=11.3\frac{m^2}{s^2}

you replace this value of v in the equation (1). Also, you replace the values of r and m:

F_c=(2.3kg)(\frac{11.3m^2/s^2}{0.034})=764.41N

hence, the tension in the string must be T =  Fc = 764.41 N

Does sand stay sand forever?
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

No sand doesn't stay sand forever.

Explanation:

  • We may have a thought that the sand we see on the beach areas are always the same one for eternal, but it is not true.
  • Due to different activities like beach nourishment, sand replenishment etc. the sand in the beach areas are changed and replaced.
  • If the sand remained there for long time, it also affects the sand eating organisms and plants.

Answer:

When the image distance is positive, the image is on the same side of the mirror as the object, and it is real and inverted. When the image distance is negative, the image is behind the mirror, so the image is virtual and upright.
