Answer:

1. Static electricity is caused by the build up of electrical charges on the surface of objects, while current electricity is a phenomenon from the flow of electrons along a conductor.

According to Newton, an object will only accelerate if there is a net or unbalanced forceacting upon it. The presence of an unbalanced force will accelerate an object - changing its speed, its direction, or both its speed and direction.

When two or more capacitors are connected in series across a potential difference:

34kurt

Answer:

A) and B) are correct.

Explanation:

Let's take a look at the attached picture. Now

The total voltage across both capacitors is the same as the sum of the voltage from each device, that statement is true for any electrical device connected in series. So a) is TRUE

The equivalent capacitance is going to be: $\frac{1}{C_{total}}=\frac{1}{C_1} +\frac{1}{C_2}$

And that value can be mathematically proven that is always less than any of the values of each capacitor. So b is TRUE

And through both capacitors flow the same current, but the amount of charge depends on the value of the capacitors, so only could be the same if the capacitors are the same value. Otherwise, don't. C) not always, so FALSE
