When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:
1 answer:
Answer:
A) and B) are correct.
Explanation:
Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now
The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE
The equivalent capacitance is going to be:
And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE
And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE

Answer:
44.09 pounds
Explanation:
We got that 20 % of the mass of a nutty chocolate bar its pecans, if 4.0 kg of pecans were used, we need to find the X in the equation
where X its the total mass of nutty chocolate bars produced. So, we can just divide by 0.2 on both sides, and we find:
Of course, we need the total mass produced in pounds, and not in kilograms. Looking at an conversion table, we can find that 1 kg its 2.20462 pounds, multiplying the value for total mass produced by the conversion factor we get:
Now, we just need to round off to two significant figures. This is:
,
the total mass of nutty chocolate bars made last Tuesday to two significant figures.
