Which of the following statements accurately describes a series circuit? Select all that apply. The flow of electrons follow the

same path. The flow of electrons split and follow different paths. Different amounts of charge will be dropped across each resistor in the circuit. The total resistance of the circuit increases as more resistors are added to the circuit. The total resistance of the circuit decreases as more resistors are added to the circuit.

In series connections, the flow of electrons follow the same path as the current remains constant in all the elements of the circuits.

And the total resistance of the circuit increases as more resistors are added to the circuit in serial manner.

Option A and D

<u>Explanation:</u>

A circuit consists of number of passive and active devices in it. And depending upon the connections between the passive devices, the flow of current and potential drop across them will be specified.

Like if the passive devices are connected parallel to each other, the current flow through each device will vary but the voltage drop will be same. Similarly, if the passive devices are connected in series, then the current flow will be constant in the devices but the potential drop will vary.

Thus, in series connections, the flow of electrons follow the same path as the current remains constant in all the elements of the circuits. And the total resistance of the circuit increases as more resistors are added to the circuit in serial manner.

In each cycle, a heat engine performs 710 J of work and exhausts 1480 J of heat. What is the thermal efficiency?
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

D) 0.32

Explanation:

The computation of the thermal efficiency is given below:

Thermal efficiency is

= 710 J ÷ (710 J + 1480 J)

= 710 J ÷ 2,190 J

= 0.32

Hence, the thermal efficiency is 0.32

Therefore the last option is correct

Is a paper clip a conducted or insulator
Leni [432]
<span>So we want to know is a paper clip a conductor or an insulator. A conductor is a material that doesn't resist very much to the flow of electric current. An insulator is totally oposite of a conductor, it gives a lot of resistane to the flow of electric current. Metals are mostly conductors while rubber, plastics are insulators. Since paper clips are mostly made out of metals, they are a conductor. </span>

Describe how you determine whether an object is in motion
PolarNik [594]

To determine whether an object is in motion or not, you first
need to specify a reference point, because there's no such
thing as "real" motion, only motion relative to something.

Once you've named the reference point, you have to look at
the object at two different times.  Each time you look at it, you
measure its distance and direction from the reference point. 
If there's any difference in these measurements from one time
to the next, then the object has had average motion during the
period between the two observations.

That's the best you can do ... find average motion during some
period of time.  You can never definitely tell whether or not the
object ever stopped during that time.  But you can sneak up on
it by making the time period between the two observations shorter
and shorter.
