6. How would the measurements for potential difference and current change if a 200 Ω resistor was used in Circuit 1 instead of the 100 Ω resistor? Explain your answer.

Explanation:

Resistance is defined as the opposition to the flow of an electric current in a circuit. This means that a higher amount of resistance tends to reduce the amount of current flowing through the resistance. The lower the current, the greater the possibility for the resistor to allow current to pass through it.  if a 200 Ω resistor was used in Circuit 1 instead of the 100 Ω resistor, then the current in the circuit will tends to increase since we are replacing the load with a lesser resistor and a smaller resistance tends to allow more current to flow through it

For the potential difference, a decrease in the resistance value will onl decrease the potential difference flowing in the circuit according to ohm's law. According to the law the pd in a circuit is directly proportional to the current which means an increase in the resistance value will cause an increase in the corresponding pd and vice versa.

initial speed when it is dropped is 150 ft/s

now at the same moment the acceleration due to gravity is perpendicular to its velocity

so as we know that

now we have centripetal acceleration a = 32 ft/s^2 as its perpendicular to velocity

while tangential acceleration at the same moment will be zero

so

now radius of curvature is given as

so the radius of curvature just after it is dropped is 703.125 ft
