<h2>Answer: decreasing</h2>
An RC circuit is an electrical circuit composed of resistors and capacitors, where the charging time
of the circuit is proportional to the magnitude of the electrical resistance
and the capacity
of the capacitor.
As shown below:
In this context, the electrical resistance is the opposition to the flow of electrons when moving through a conductor.
Therefore:
<h2>When a capacitor is being charged in an RC circuit, the current flowing through a resistor <u>decreases</u>.</h2>
And the correct option is b.
Answer:

Explanation:
As we know that the electrostatic force is a based upon inverse square law
so we have

now since it depends inverse on the square of the distance so we can say

now we know that


also we know that

now from above equation we have



Answer:
a. negative
b. zero
Explanation:
work is the change in the energy of a system due to external forces
work is done when a force moves a load through a distance in the direction of the force
The work done by a force on a system is positive when the force and the force displacement point in the same direction and negative when they point in opposite directions
in the scenario we are considering in the question, the force (the hand) moves the block vertically upwards but the displacement of the block reduces (in the opposite direction) since it decelerates. as such the work done by gravity on the block is negative.
the work done on the block is zero if the system consists of the block and the earth because there is no gravitational force exerted on the system
