Suppose the three resistors in the picture represents a 240 W television , a 720 W straightening iron and a 1440 W hair dryer, Will the fuse melt or blow ?

A fuse is an electrical safety device which should not blow, which should overheat and melts if current is too high. Its placed in the live wire before the switch. This prevents overheating and catching fire. A fuse have a specific current value for example - 3000 amps. So when choosing a suitable fuse you must use the above minimum value but less than maximum value. For example in a circuit there is 1000W flowing, you should choose more than 1000 amps fuse not less or else, it will melt.

A toy race car travels down a 25cm ramp in 5 seconds. Calculate its speed. A. 125 cm/sec B. 5 cm/sec C. 0.2 cm/sec D. 20 cm/sec
kipiarov [429]
This would be B, 5cm/sec.
To get this answer you would need to divided 25 which is how large the ramp is, and 5 seconds, the amount of time it took to travel down the ramp.

In the photo, a locomotive has broken through the wall of a train station. During the collision, what can be said about the forc
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Whether the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall was larger

Than the force the locomotive could exert on the wall.

Explanation:

The Newton's third law of motion States that every force have it's equal and opposite reaction force, whose magnitude is the same as the applied force. Therefore the magnitude of these opposite forces will be equal.

So we have;

F12=-F21

F12 is the force in a direction

-F21 is the force in the opposite direction.

Therefore we see that the magnitude of the force the locomotive exerts on the wall is equal to the one the wall exerts on the locomotive. Both magnitudes are equal but in opposite directions.

A small cart and one of larger mass collide and rebound off each other. The carts were initially moving with the same speed. Whi
Natalka [10]

the collision is elastic as the carts rebound off each other.

by conservation of momentum, the small mass will have a larger change in velocity.

so the ans is The small cart changes its velocity the most.

What is the dependent variable in an experiment testing the effects of pH on growth of a seed?
dimulka [17.4K]

The correct answer is A. Seed growth

Explanation:

Experiments often involve two main variables: the independent variable and the dependent variable. In an experiment, the dependent variable is always the main factor being studied; also, this is "dependent" because it is affected by other factors. In the case presented, the dependent variable is seed growth because this is the specific phenomenon that is being analyzed. Moreover, this factor is affected by the changes in pH. On the other hand, the pH, which is the second factor is the independent variable because this is not affected by the first variable and it is manipulated on purpose.
