Answer:

The Current Iₜ = I₁ = I₂ = I₃

Charge Qₜ = Q₁ = Q₂ = Q₃

Potential difference Vₜ = V₁ + V₂ + V₃

Capacitance 1/Cₜ = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂ + 1/C₃

Explanation:

According to the attached image;

For series arrangements of capacitors, the current flowing through each of the capacitors are the same and equal to the total current flowing through the circuit;

Iₜ = I₁ = I₂ = I₃

Also the charge storage by each capacitor is equal;

Qₜ = Q₁ = Q₂ = Q₃

The potential difference across each of the capacitors sum up to the total voltage across the circuit;

Vₜ = V₁ + V₂ + V₃

The reciprocal of the total capacitance equals the sum of the reciprocal of capacitances of each of the capacitors;

1/Cₜ = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂ + 1/C₃

Answer:

1) the net potential difference of the circuit will be the sum of all the potential difference of all the individual capacitors that are connected together.

2) The net capacitance in the circuit would be lesser than that of the capacitance of the individual capacitors.

3) the charges on the individual capacitors will remain the same.

A closed circuit is formed by a solid conductor in contact with two parallel conducting rails that are closed on their left end,

this is an equation that you need to solve for motional emf. motional emf=vBL, where v is velocity in meters/second, B is magnetic field in Teslas and L is length or distance the rails are apart from each other. when we plug everything into the formula given above, we get: motional emf=5m/s*0.80T*0.20m. solving all this we get 0.8 volts. pretty sure that since they are giving you the direction of the field, they want to know which way the current will flow . since the conductor is moving from left to right the area of the field is increasing which means magnetic flux is increasing as Ф(magnetic flux)=B(magnetic field)*A(area)*cosФ(little phi is the angle to the normal. in this case little fee is 0 degrees so the cosФ doesn't matter). so ↑Ф=B↑A. if magnetic flux is increasing, the induced magnetic field is in the opposite direction as the original magnetic field meaning the induced magnetic field will be out of the page. using the right hand rule which says that if the field is in to the page, the current should go clockwise and if the field is out of the page, the current is counterclockwise so that means that the current should be going counter clockwise since the induced field is going out of the screen. the top of the conducting wire will have its current go to the left and the bottom of the conducting wire will have the current go to the right.

Two blocks of ice, one four times as heavy as the other, are at rest on a frozen lake. A person pushes each block the same dista

qaws [65]

Answer:b

Explanation:

Given

mass of heavy object is 4m

mass of lighter object is m

A person pushes each block with same force F

According to Work Energy theorem Change in kinetic energy of object is equal to Work done by all the object

As launching velocity is same for both the object so heavier mass must possess greater kinetic energy . For same force heavier mass must be pushed 4 times farther than the light block .

$\Delta (K.E.)_H=\frac{1}{2}(4m)v^2$
