Examine the scenario.

A circuit is arranged so that 20 A of current is flowing through it. The battery is replaced with another battery with ¼ the original voltage.

Which choice correctly describes the effect on the current?

1 The current decreases to ½ of the original amount because a smaller voltage indicates that the flow of charge is being restricted, but only by half. As voltage decreases, current will decrease also, but by a smaller amount.

2 The current increases to 4 times the amount because a smaller voltage indicates that there is less to restrict the flow of charge. As voltage decreases in a circuit, current increases

3 The current reduces to ¼ of the original current because a smaller voltage indicates that there is less energy to move the charge. As voltage decreases in a circuit, current also decreases.

4 The current stays the same because a smaller voltage means there is less energy for each charge, but more charges are moving through the circuit. Current and voltage do not affect each other.

Suppose that two tanks, 1 and 2, each with a large opening at the top, contain different liquids. a small hole is made in the side of each tank at the same depth 1.57 m below the liquid surface, but the hole in tank 2 has 2.49 times the cross-sectional area of the hole in tank 1. (a) what is the ratio ρ1/ρ2 of the densities of the liquids if the mass flow rate is the same for the two holes? (b) what is the ratio rv1/rv2 of the volume flow rates from the two tanks? (c) at one instant, the liquid in tank 1 is 14.9 cm above the hole. if the tanks are to have equal volume flow rates, what height above the hole must the liquid in tank 2 be just then?
