Describe why increasing the total resistance of a circuit will tend to decrease the current. Explain your answer in terms of Ohm's. Provide an example using actual numbers to demonstrate this. Use full sentences.

According to Ohm's Law, I = V/R. Increasing the total resistance of a circuit will tend to decrease the current because the current is inversely proportional to the resistance. For example, if a voltage is at 5V with a resistance of 100 ohms, the current is 0.05mA. However, if the resistance increases to 500, the current decreases to 0.01mA.

In complete sentences describe the differences between adding two colors of light and adding two colors of pigment.

Adding two colors of light produces secondary colors of light. However, adding pigments prevents light from being subtracted and absorbs the colors of light.

But when magenta light hits a green shirt, the shirt absorbs both the blue and red colors of light that were used to create magenta. The shirt then appears to be black.

In your own words, describe why, in a series circuit, the equivalent resistance is equal to the addition of the values of the individual resistors. Explain your answer in terms of conservation of energy and charge. Use full sentences.

Equivalent resistance equals the sum of all resistance in a series circuit. This means that equivalent resistance increase when more resistors are added. Voltage stays the same but is divided among the resistors. Current remains the same through each resistor as there is only one path for the charge to flow through. However the current through the circuit will decrease. It is converted from high energy to low energy so the charge can enter the source once again.

Please explain how the John Travoltage simulation and the Balloons and Static simulation demonstrate electric charge. Use 3-5 full sentences to explain what you saw in the simulations.

John Travoltage simulation demonstrated how electric charge builds up and is discharged. The closer the arm was to the door, the quicker the static electricity was discharged. When the arm was further away from the door, more charge needed to be built up before it could be released. The Balloons and Static simulation demonstrated how positive and negative charges could be transferred. When the balloon was rubbed against the sweater, negative charges from the sweater transferred onto the balloon. Static cling was created through this and the balloon would move towards the sweater even after being positioned in the middle of the room. The balloon was also able to cling to the wall because of this charge.

A rubber rod with a charge of -2x10-3 C charge is brought near a grounded neutral conductor. The wire to ground is removed while the charged rod is still near the conductor. The rod is then removed. Next the conductor is used to charge a second neutral object using conduction. What is the resulting charge on the conductor? What is the charge on the second neutral object? Briefly explain why in a few sentences.

The neutral conductor then becomes positively charged by 1*10^-3C. This is because the electrons in the negative charge would repel the electrons in the neutral conductor. The charge on the second neutral object would become negatively charged due to the fact that there are more electrons than protons. The second object would be attracted to the conductor.

There is a linear relationship between the dielectric constant and capacitance, as well as between the dielectric constant and stored charge. It was observed from the lab that as I increased the dielectric constant, both capacitance and stored charged increased as well.
