The value of current will remain constant throughout the series circuit.

Answer:

Explanation:

Consider all the resistors are connected in series such that the one end of a resistor is connected to another end of resistor. Similarly, the end of the second resistor is connected to end of third resistor and so on. As there is only one battery connection and this is also given to the first resistor and last resistor. The first resistor is the connected to the positive of battery via wire and the last resistor is connected to the negative terminal of the battery. So the current flow will be constant in all the resistors. As the voltage drop will occur in each of the resistors during passing through it. Thus the current will remain constant while the voltage and resistance will be varying with each other.

So Rs = R1 +R2+ R3 +.....................+R4.

So the value of current will remain constant throughout the series circuit.

April and Alex are saving money to buy new phones. Each friend starts with some money and saves a specific amount each week.
qwelly [4]
First thing to note is that we are on week 0, when they start saving:

The equation for Alex is:

y=20x + 125 

Know that we are on week 0, and x is our weeks, that makes our equation:

y=20(0) + 125 

Which means it's really:

y=125

That means that the first one is E. 125

For the second, it shows our week 0, which is at 100.

That means that the second one is I. 100

Hope this helps!

How much heat is needed to boil 5.30 kg of water at its boiling point?
vivado [14]

Answer:

Required heat Q = 11,978 KJ

Explanation:

Given:

Mass = 5.3 kg

Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2,260 KJ / KG

Find:

Required heat Q

Computation:

Required heat Q = Mass x Latent heat of vaporization of water

Required heat Q = 5.3 x 2260

Required heat Q = 11,978 KJ

Required heat Q = 12,000 KJ (Approx.)

Where is the best place to put pfds while you are out on your boat?
Alexeev081 [22]
The best place to put PFDs while you are out on your boat is at the top deck of your boat. PFDs must be placed at an area where it is easily accessible, especially in times of accidents, without any unnecessary gear or objects covering the PFDs, but it is best to wear a life jacket during the whole duration of the boat trip.
