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.

What kind of system is generally composed of a fluid system to move the heat from the collector to its point of usage and a rese

Mkey [24]

Solar heating is the system composed of a fluid system to move the heat from the collector to its point of usage and a reservoir to stock the heat

<u>Explanation:</u>

The options given here like coal burning uses solid material as the source to heat and to generate energy. Similarly, nuclear power also requires solid particles like atoms or neutrons to strike the moderators forming energy.

In both of these cases, fluid system is present but it is used completely as coolant and to maintain the temperature. Thus, the remaining system that is solar heating has been done for water tanks where the fluid as water is used to move the heat from its collector to its point of usage. Even in solar system it is used as reservoir to stock the heat.

9) What will happen to the period of a pendulum if we change the rope of a pendulum with another which is four times with the in

Arturiano [62]

Double

Explanation:

Since the period T of a pendulum is given by

$T = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}$

By increasing the length of the pendulum by 4, the period becomes

$T' = 2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{4l}{g}} = 2\left(2\pi \sqrt{\dfrac{l}{g}}\right) = 2T$

You can see that the period doubles when we increase the length by a factor of 4.

Why should the substage condenser not be included in computing the magnification?

Leni [432]

The reason as to why the substage condenser does not need to be included in computing the magnification and the only component needed is the ocular lens and the objective lenses is because the condenser is only responsible for gathering light and it does not contribute with the magnification of the object under the microscope.

Someone plz answrr why is motion important in our lives

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

lives, forces and motion make things move and stay still. Pushing and pulling are examples of forces that can sped things up or slow things down. There are two types of forces, at a distance force and contact forces..
