When resistors are connected in series, they act like
a single resistor whose resistance is their sum. 

100 ohms and 400 ohms, connected in series, look like
a single resistor of 500 ohms.

           Current = (voltage) / (resistance)

                        = (60 volts) / (500 ohms) = 0.12 A.

Current is measured by connecting a meter in series
with an energized component.  In other words, a break
is made in the circuit, the meter is connected in the break,
and the current to be measured literally flows through the meter.</span>

No two electrons in an atom can have the same set of four quantum numbers' is
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

D. Pauli's exclusion principle

Explanation:

<em>A. Newton's laws</em> are related to the motion, they state that "Every object in a state of uniform motion will remain in that state of motion unless an external force acts on it", "  Force equals mass times acceleration." and "  For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction"  

<em>B. Bohr's law </em>depicts an atom as a small, positively charged nucleus surrounded by electrons. These electrons travel in circular orbits around the nucleus.  

<em>C. Aufbau principle</em>, also called the building-up principle or the aufbau rule, states that in the ground state of an atom or ion, electrons fill atomic orbitals of the lowest available energy levels before occupying higher levels  

<em>D. Pauli's exclusion principle</em> states that <em>no two fermions (e.g., electrons) in an atom can have the same set of quantum numbers,</em> hence they have to "pile up" or "build up" into higher energy levels.

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

A lone neutron spontaneously decays into a proton plus an _______
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

A lone neutron spontaneously decays into a proton plus an electron.

Explanation:

In an atom, nuclei contain protons and neutrons, which are the fundamental particles of an atom. Neutrons are stable and uncharged particles inside a nucleus.

For 15 times during its lifetime, a free neutron decays and breaks down into more smaller particles.This breakdown causes problems in nuclear reactors, as they start decaying and emit radiations of different wavelengths.

A neutron undergoes the decaying process to produce an electron, a proton, and energy.

The reaction of neutron decay:

  n0 → p+ + e− + νe
