Answer:

in the parallel connection the light bulbs shine less than in the series connection

Explanation:

In a series circuit the current through the whole circuit is the same, therefore the power (brightness) of each bulb is

           P = i² R

where R is the resistance of each bulb and i the current of the circuit.

If we connect the light bulbs and the cells in parallel, the current in the circuit is the sum of the east that passes through each light bulb,

            i = i₁ + i₂

if the two light bulbs are the same

           i = 2 i₁

           i₁ = i / 2

so the power of each bulb is is

           P = i₁² R

           P = R i² / 4

           P = ¼ P_initial

Therefore we see that in the parallel connection the light bulbs shine less than in the series connection

What is the speed of an electron that has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1020 V?
sashaice [31]
<span>a. KE in electron volts is 1020 eV. 
b. KE in Joules is e(1020) = (1.6022E-19)(1020) = 1.634E-16 
c. KE = (1/2)mv^2, so v = sqrt[2*KE/m] = 18.94E6 m/s

note: m is the mass of an electron = 9.109e-31 kg

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

How does uncertainty relate to measurements and calculations made during an investigation?
Rom4ik [11]

there here is your answer to your question

Uncertainty in measurements and calculations means difference between actual and measured data. We can say that all measurements have some degree of uncertainty. ... Systematic error (because of error in measuring instrument) 2. Random error (human errors such as- delay in starting, delay in stopping).
