C. Series

Consider resistors in a circuit - if all the resistors in the circuit are in series and one of the resistors fails then no current can flow thru the circuit,

If the resistors are in parallel then then each resistor experiences the same voltage drop regardless of whether or not any resistor in particular is carrying current.

(a) a light-rail commuter train accelerates at a rate of 1.15 m/s2. how long does it take it to reach its top speed of 80.0 km/h
snow_lady [41]
A = 1.15m/s2, Vf = 80.0km/h --> we need it in m/s, so:
Vf = 80km/h × 1000m/1km × 1h/3600s
= 22.22m/s
Top speed = Vf, initial speed = Vi
time (t) = V(Vf-Vi) ÷ a
t = (22.22-0)m/s ÷ 1.15m/s2
t = 22.22m/s × s2/1.15m
= 19.32 seconds

1. Most PE, because PE is directly proportional to distance (height)
Height: 100 meters
Speed: 0 mph

2. Most KE, because KE is directly proportional to speed
Height: 10 meters
Speed: 40 mph

3. Most TE, average KE
Height: 10 meters
Speed: 40 mph

4. The skater gains thermal energy as she goes down the slope, because the speed of the skater increases, so it increases the total kinetic energy of the particles, and makes them vibrate faster, resulting in a higher temperature.

a) A unit of time sometimes used in microscopic physics is the shake. One shake equals 10–8 s. Are there more shakes in a second
lawyer [7]

Answer:

a) Yes, there are 10^8 shakes in a second (1 s \frac{1 shake}{10^{-8}s}=10^8 shake) in a year there are 31,536,000 seconds... that is 3.1536x10^7 (1year\frac{365 day}{1 year} \frac{24 h}{1 day} \frac{60 min}{1 h}\frac{60s}{1min}=3.1536 *10^7)

b) Note that the defined universe day will have 60*60*24=86400 universe seconds if the seconds are defined as normal seconds.

Also one universe day (or 86400 universe seconds) is equivalent to 1010 years. Now using a rule of three we can know the seconds that humans have existed.

106 years * \frac{86,400 universe-seconds}{1,010 years}=9,067.728 s

That is about 2 and half hours.
