In a series circuit, all of the components are connected in the same 'loop' and the current only has one direction/path it can flow through.
In the first three options, the current has multiple paths it can go through. So these three circuits are parallel and not series.
In the last option, the current only has one path where it can flow through, so that circuit is in series.
So Circuit <u>D </u>is a series circuit.

Answer
Circuit D
This is a statement not a question .
Answer:
W = 16.5 Kj
P = 49.9 Watt
E = 16471
Explanation:
m = 73.5kg
t = 5min 30sec = (5×60) + 30 = 330sec
each step = 16.6cm = 0.166m
h = 135×0.166 = 22.41 m
g = 10 m/s²
(i) W = F × s = W × h = mgh
W = 73.5×10×22.41 = 16471.35
W = 16.5 Kj
(ii) Power = workdone/time
P = 16471.35/330
P = 49.9 Watt
(iii) The energy burnt in this process = 16471
The one that does not involve chemical energy would be : C. Coasting downhill on a bike
This one requires physical energy, To be categorized as chemical energy, the bond of chemical compounds has to be released
Hope this helps
