Answer:

Option A and B

Explanation:

In the parallel connection, the capacitors that are connected in parallel have the same potential difference across each capacitor as the battery. Therefore, statement A is correct.

Charge (Q), capacitance (C) and voltage across capacitor (V) is related with each other as follows:

Q = C ×V

As capacitance is not same for all the capacitors, therefore each capacitor carries different charge. Therefore, statement C is incorrect.

As potential difference across each capacitor is same, therefore, capacitor with the largest capacitance carry the most charge. Therefore, statement B is correct.

Therefore, statements A and B are correct.

Answer:

Option A and B is correct

Explanation:

When two or more capacitors are connected in parallel, the equivalent capacitance of the circuit is the sum of capacitance of all the capacitors.

C = C₁ + C₂+ C₃+....

The potential difference across each capacitor is equal. Thus, option A is correct.

The total charge is the sum of the charge on stored in each capacitor.

Q = Q₁ + Q₂+ Q₃+....

Q = CV

Since the voltage is same across each capacitor, the capacitor which has largest capacitance has the most charge. Thus, option B is correct.

A plane flies 1800 miles in 9 ​hours, with a tailwind all the way. the return trip on the same​ route, now with a​ headwind, tak
Fittoniya [83]

Initially its moving with tail wind so here the speed of wind will support the motion of the plane

so we can say

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{9}

V_{plane} + v_{wind} = 200 mph

now when its moving with head wind we can say that wind is opposite to the motion of the plane

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{distance}{time}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = \frac{1800}{12}

V_{plane} - v_{wind} = 150mph

now by using above two equations we can find speed of palne as well as speed of wind

V_{plane} = 175 mph

v_{wind} = 25 mph

An object is floating in equilibrium on the surface of a liquid. The object is then removed and placed in another container, fil
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

The fraction of its volume inside liquid  is increased .

Explanation:

According to principle pf floatation , an object floats on the surface of water

when the weight of  liquid displaced by it becomes equal to weight of the object . weight of the liquid depends upon the density of the liquid .

In the second case , when the body is dipped into liquid of lesser density , in order to balance the weight of body , more volume of liquid will be displaced so that weight of displaced liquid becomes equal to object's weight . So the body floats with greater depth inside liquid . The fraction of its volume inside liquid  is increased .

Two forces and are applied to an object whose mass is 13.3 kg. The larger force is . When both forces point due east, the object
ANEK [815]

Answer:

Explanation:

First, It's important to remember F = ma, and in this problem m = 13.3 kg

This can be reduced to a simple system of equations problem.  Now if they are both going the same way then we add them, while if they are going the opposite way we subtract them.  So let's call them F1 and F2, with F1 arger than F2.  Now, When we add them together F1+F2 = (.723 m/s^2)*13.3kg and then when we subtract them, and have the larger one pushing toward the east, let's call F1 the larger one, F1-F2 = (.493 m/s^2)*13.3kg.  

Can you solve this system of equations seeing them like this, or do you need more help?
