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.

What is the source of all mechanical waves?
frutty [35]

Answer:

The correct answer is A. Vibration.

Explanation:

Mechanical waves is formed by the oscillation of matter and therefore transfer energy from one medium to the other. Unlike electromagnetic waves, mechanical waves need some medium to propagate. It requires an initial energy input and thus carries this energy when it propagates. There are three types of mechanical waves namely transverse waves, longitudinal waves and surface waves. Examples of such waves are sound waves, water waves and seismic waves.

The filament of a certain lamp has a resistance that increases linearly with temperature. When a constant voltage is switched on
alekssr [168]

Answer:

The change in temperature is \Delta T  = 1795 K

Explanation:

From the question we  are told that

   The temperature coefficient is  \alpha  =  4 * 10^{-3 }\  k^{-1 }

The resistance of the filament is mathematically represented as

           R  =  R_o [1 + \alpha  \Delta T]

Where R_o is the initial resistance

Making the change in temperature the subject of the formula

     \Delta T = \frac{1}{\alpha } [\frac{R}{R_o} - 1 ]

Now from ohm law

           I = \frac{V}{R}

This implies that current varies inversely with current so

           \frac{R}{R_o} = \frac{I_o}{I}

Substituting this we have

       \Delta T  = \frac{1}{\alpha } [\frac{I_o}{I} - 1 ]

From the question we are told that

    I  = \frac{I_o}{8}

Substituting this we have

   \Delta T  = \frac{1}{\alpha } [\frac{I_o}{\frac{I_o}{8} } - 1 ]

=>     \Delta T  = \frac{1}{3.9 * 10^{-3}} (8 -1 )

        \Delta T  = 1795 K

A girl rides her bike at 2.52 m/s on the way to her friends how which is 628 m away.
Harrizon [31]

Answer: 249 seconds

Explanation:

Speed of bike = 2.52 m/s

Distance = 628 m

Time taken = ? ( let the unknown value be Z)

Recall that speed is the distance covered per unit time.

Hence, speed = Distance / Time taken

Time taken = Distance / speed

Z = 628m / 2.52 m/s

Z = 249.2 seconds (Round to nearest tenth i.e 249 seconds)

Thus, it takes 249 seconds for the girl to get to her friends house
