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.

Assume a change at the source of sound reduces the wavelength of a sound wave in air by a factor of 3.
noname [10]

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by :

v=f\lambda ......(1)

(i) Here, the wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3. Equation (1) becomes :

\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional to each other. So, if wavelength of a sound wave in air reduces by a factor of 3, then the frequency will increases by a factor of 3.

(ii) It remains the same.

What are three key aerodynamics principles?
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

There are three basic forces in aerodynamics: acceleration, which moves an airplane forward; drag, which holds it back; and height, which keeps it airborne. Lift is generally explained by three theories: Bernoulli's principle, the Coanda effect, and Newton's third law of motion.
