In order to make things easier to describe and explain, let's call
the resistance of each bulb 'R', and the battery voltage 'V'.

a).  In series, the total resistance is 3R.
In parallel, the total resistance is R/3.
Changing from series to parallel, the total resistance of the circuit
decreases to 1/9 of its original value.

b).  In series, the total current is  V / (3R) .
In parallel, the total current is  3V / R .
Changing from series to parallel, the total current in the circuit
increases to 9 times its original value.

c).  In series, the power dissipated by the circuit is 

                                   (V) · V/3R  =  V² / 3R .

In parallel, the power dissipated by the circuit is

                                   (V) · 3V/R  =  3V² / R .

Changing from series to parallel, the power dissipated by
the circuit (also the power delivered by the battery) increases
to 9 times its original value.

A solid nonconducting sphere of radius R has a charge Q uniformly distributed throughout its volume. A Gaussian surface of radiu
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

1. E x 4πr² = ( Q x r³) / ( R³ x ε₀ )

Explanation:

According to the problem, Q is the charge on the non conducting sphere of radius R. Let ρ be the volume charge density of the non conducting sphere.

As shown in the figure, let r be the radius of the sphere inside the bigger non conducting sphere. Hence, the charge on the sphere of radius r is :

Q₁ = ∫ ρ dV

Here dV is the volume element of sphere of radius r.

Q₁ = ρ x 4π x ∫ r² dr

The limit of integration is from 0 to r as r is less than R.

Q₁ = (4π x ρ x r³ )/3

But volume charge density, ρ = \frac{3Q}{4\pi R^{3} }

So, Q_{1} = \frac{Qr^{3} }{R^{3} }

Applying Gauss law of electrostatics ;

∫ E ds = Q₁/ε₀

Here E is electric field inside the sphere and ds is surface element of sphere of radius r.

Substitute the value of Q₁ in the above equation. Hence,

E x 4πr² = ( Q x r³) / ( R³ x ε₀ )

When hydrogen is fused into helium, energy is released from Choose one: A. the increase in pressure. B. the decrease in the grav
Tatiana [17]

The nuclear fusion of hydrogen atoms releases a huge amount of energy. So the correct choice is C. Conversion of mass to energy.

What is nuclear fusion?

When two small nuclei join to form a new nucleus, then this process is termed nuclear fusion. A huge amount of energy is released when there occurs nuclear fusion between the two nuclei. And a new element is formed.

It has been observed that the amount of energy released in nuclear fusion is equal to the mass difference between the mass of the formed nucleus and the total mass of old nuclei. Hence in the nuclear fusion of hydrogen nuclei to form a helium nucleus, the energy is released due to the conversion of mass into energy.

The pressure is increased to make the hydrogen atoms fuse but this change in pressure does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

The magnitude of the gravitational field is too low and it does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.

The gravitational collapse does not occur between the two hydrogen atoms. This phenomenon occurs in celestial bodies so this also does not contribute to the energy released in the fusion of hydrogen.
