There is said to be a short circuit when

1 answer:

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; 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

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.;

5.00 kg of liquid water is heated to 100.0 °C in a closed system. At this temperature, the density of liquid water is 958 kg/m3.

user100 [1]

Answer:

$1.04\times 10^7\ J.$

Explanation:

In the question given :

Pressure is constant

Therefore, Work done, $W=P\times\Delta V$

Pressure, P=1.01 × 105 Pa.

Final volume, $V_f=8.50\ m^3.$

Initial volume, $V_i=\dfrac{Mass}{density}=\dfrac{5}{958}=5.22\times10^-3\ m^3.$

Therefore, W=8.58\times 10^{5}\ J.

Also, Heat Given, $Q=m\times L=5\times 2.26\times 10^{6}\ J=1.13\times 10^7\ J.$

Also, according to First law of thermodynamics:

$\Delta U=Q-W=(1.13\times 10^7)-(8.58\times 10^5)=1.04\times 10^7\ J.$

Hence, this is the required solution.

A ball of moist clay falls 15.0 m to the ground. It is in contact with the ground for 20.0 ms before stopping. (a) What is the m

rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground or moving down

Explanation:

Vf² - Vo² = 2gS

where

Vf = velocity of clay as it hits the ground

Vo = initial velocity of clay = 0

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec^2 (constant)

S = distance travelled by clay = 15 m

Substituting appropriate values,

Vf² - 0 = 2(9.8)(15)

Vf = 17.15 m/sec.

Formula to use is,

V - Vf = aT

where

V = velocity of clay when it stops = 0

Vf = 17.15 m/sec (as determined above)

a = acceleration

T = 20 ms

Put the values to find acceleration

a=(V-Vf)/T

a=(0-17.15)/20

a= -0.86 m/s²

The negative sign shows that ball down the ground

A horse travels 80 meters south in 20 seconds. What is its average velocity?

AURORKA [14]

Average velocity is a vector unit (i.e. includes magnitude and direction) calculated by working out distance ÷ time:

80 metres ÷ 20 seconds = 4 metres/seconds (m/s)

Therefore, your final answer is C. 4 m/s south.
