The same current flows through each part of a series circuit. If the circuit is broken at any point there won’t be any current that will flow. In the above circuit, electricity flows from the battery to each bulb, one at a time, in the order they are wired to the circuit. In this case, if one of the bulbs blew out, the other bulb would not be able to light up because the flow of electric current would have been interrupted. In the same way, if one of the bulb was unscrewed, the current flow to both the bulbs would be interrupted. If the circuit were a string of light bulbs, and one burned out, the remaining bulbs would also turn off

The smallest unit of charge is − 1.6 × 10 − 19 C, which is the charge in coulombs of a single electron. Robert Millikan was able

vovangra [49]

Answer:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$

Explanation:

<u>Charge of an Electron</u>

Since Robert Millikan determined the charge of a single electron is

$q_e=-1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Every possible charged particle must have a charge that is an exact multiple of that elemental charge. For example, if a particle has 5 electrons in excess, thus its charge is $5\times -1.6\cdot 10^{-19}\ C=-8 \cdot 10^{-19}\ C$

Let's test the possible charges listed in the question:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . We have just found it's a possible charge of a particle

$-3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ . Since 3.2 is an exact multiple of 1.6, this is also a possible charge of the oil droplets

$-1.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ this is not a possible charge for an oil droplet since it's smaller than the charge of the electron, the smallest unit of charge

$-5.6 \times 10 ^{-19 },\ -9.4 \times 10 ^{-19 }$ cannot be a possible charge for an oil droplet because they are not exact multiples of 1.6

Finally, the charge $-4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$ is four times the charge of the electron, so it is a possible value for the charge of an oil droplet

Summarizing, the following are the possible values for the charge of an oil droplet:

$-8.0 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C,\ -3.2 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C, -4.8 \times 10 ^{-19 }\ C$
