The concept used in this is circuit analysis using the simplification of resistors and capacitors.

Explanation:

The time constant for each of the circuits in figure A, B, C, D and E. Therefore, rank the length of time the bulbs stay lit from longest to shortest by using the value of time constant for each circuit. The rank of the time constant of the circuit is C > A = E > B > DC  > A = E > B > D.

Capacitance is the central concept in electrostatics and constructed devices called capacitors are essential elements of electronic circuits.

If more charge is placed on the conductor the voltage increases proportionately. The ratio of the charge to the voltage is called the capacitance C of the conductor C= q/v.

The resistance increases if you add resistors in series and decreases if you add them in parallel. on the other hand the capacitors increases if it is added parallel and decreases if added in series. hence the circuit longest time constant takes longest time to discharge.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

D. the amount of chemical energy equals the amount of heat and light energy.

Explanation:

Given that the first law of thermodynamics affirmed that energy is neither created nor destroyed however, it can be transformed from one form to another. In other words, while, during the transformation of energy, no energy is lost, the input energy is also equal to output energy.

Hence, the chemical energy stored in the log is EQUAL to the heat and light energy produced by burning.

<h2>Apartment Explosion Reported </h2>

The apartment’s explosion, reportedly caused by a gas leak, produced a violent release of gas and heat. The heat increased the temperature of the air in the room, which means an increase in the air's molecular kinetic energy.

When heat is provided then temperature increases and the molecules of substances move rapidly by increase of kinetic energy (K.E) temperature increases. It is understood that heat increases temperature.

A swimmer does 3,560 J of work in 55 s. What is the swimmer’s power output? Round your answer to two significant figures. The po
Natasha2012 [34]
The value of the swimmer's power output is calculated by dividing the work done by the time it took for the work to be completed. From the given in this item,
                              P = 3560 J/ 55 s = 64.73 W
Rounding off to two significant figures will give us 65 W.

If one of the satellites is at a distance of 20,000 km from you, what percent accuracy in the distance is required if we desire
Lesechka [4]
<span>It is quite straightforward to convert an uncertainty to a percent uncertainty. We can divide the amount of uncertainty by the original amount and then multiply by 100%.

(2 m / 20,000,000 m) X 100% = 0.00001%

The percent uncertainty is 0.00001%.

The percent accuracy is the 100% - percent uncertainty.
The percent accuracy = 100% - 0.00001% = 99.99999%

The percent accuracy is 99.99999%.</span>
