ASSIGNMENT 03
QUESTION 1
Indicate if the following statement is True or False.
1.1 Energy can be created or destroyed; it can only be transferred or converted from one form to
another.
1.2 Electrical circuits require a complete, unbroken path for the flow of electric current.
1.3 Learning styles refer to the different ways individuals prefer to process and understand
information.
1.4 In a series circuit, the total resistance is equal to the sum of the individual resistances.
1.5 Kinetic energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or elevation.
1.6 In an electrical circuit, current flows from the positive terminal of the battery to the negative
terminal.
1.7 Capacitors store electrical energy in the form of an electric field.
1.8 Energy is conserved in all physical and chemical processes; it cannot be created or
destroyed.
1.9 In parallel circuits, the total resistance is always greater than the individual resistances.
1.10 Learning styles are fixed and cannot be developed or changed over time.
