On Jupiter, C. your weight would increase by a factor of 2.4 . Weight is a product of mass and gravity. Mass does not change dependent upon location.

When this current is closed which way does the current flow
Anastaziya [24]
Well, Godess, that's not a simple question, and it doesn't have
a simple answer.

When the switch is closed . . .

"Conventional current" flows out of the ' + ' of the battery, through R₁ ,
then through R₂ , then through R₃ .  It piles up on the right-hand side of
the capacitor (C).  It repels the ' + ' charges on the left side of 'C', and
those flow into the ' - ' side of the battery.  So the flow of current through
this series circuit is completely clockwise, around toward the right. 

That's the way the first experimenters pictured it, that's the way we still
handle it on paper, and that's the way our ammeters display it.

BUT . . .

About 100 years after we thought that we completely understand electricity,
we discovered that the little tiny things that really move through a wire, and
really carry the electric charge, are the electrons, and they carry NEGATIVE
charge.  This turned our whole picture upside down.

But we never changed the picture !  We still do all of our work in terms of
'conventional current'.  But the PHYSICAL current ... the actual motion of
charge in the wire ... is all exactly the other way around.

In your drawing ... When the switch is closed, electrons flow out of the 
' - ' terminal on the bottom of the battery, and pile up on the left plate of
the 'C'.  They repel electrons off of the right-side of 'C', and those then
flow through R₃ , then through R₂ , then through R₁ , and finally into the
' + ' terminal on top of the battery.

Those are the directions of 'conventional' current and 'physical' current
in all circuits.

In the circuit of YOUR picture that you attached, there's more to the story:

Battery current can't flow through a capacitor.  Current flows only until
charges are piled up on the two sides of 'C' facing each other, and then
it stops.

Wait a few seconds after you close the switch in the picture, and there is
no longer any current in the loop.

To be very specific and technical about it . . .

-- The instant you close the switch, the current is

       (battery voltage) / (R₁ + R₂ + R₃)        amperes

but it immediately starts to decrease.

--  Every  (C)/((R₁ + R₂ + R₃)  seconds after that, the current is

                  e⁻¹  =  about  36.8 %

less than it was that same amount of time ago.

Now, are you glad you asked ?

Name one advantage and one disadvantage of the prepaid electricity system.​
Doss [256]

Answer:

The system prevents a consumer from accruing debt via electricity use, as it only allows the customer to use electricity which has been paid for upfront.

this gives the advantage of not allowing the consumer to rack up debt

the disadvantage for the consumer comes when they cannot afford to prepay in a time of financial difficulty - as the system now renders them as having no electricity as well as no money

A 20 kg bicycle carrying a 50 kg girl is traveling at a speed of 8 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the girl and bicycle?
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

2.24kJ

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy that a object possesses due to its motion.

Let kinetic Energy (KE),

Here both the Bicycle and the girl is travelling at the given speed , therefore we have to consider the total mass

according ti the definition ,

KE=\frac{1}{2}*mass*velocity^{2}  \\=\frac{1}{2}*(50+20)kg*(8ms^{-1} )^{2}\\  =2240J\\=2.24kJ
