The rapid growth of industry in the United States resulted in a series of events that led to the Great Depression.  Because of the success of industry, much of the country’s wealth ended up in the hands of a few.  As a result, the average American did not have enough money to buy all the products that were being manufactured. The lack of consumers caused companies to produce less.  Needing fewer workers, they let old employees go and were unable to hire new ones. Workers therefore had less and less money, causing industry to collapse even more.  As industries shut their plants and workers lost their jobs, banks across the country failed. In 1930, the firstfull year of the depression, 1,300 banks closed their doors.  During the next two years, another 3,700 closed. The main organizational pattern of the paragraph is: 

The wealthy of ancient Egypt lived in splendid villas that opened onto fragrant gardens and shady groves.  Their meals included many kinds of meat, poultry, cakes, fruit, wine, and sweets.  They ate from vessels of alabaster, gold, and silver, and adorned themselves with costly jewels.  However, the life of the poor was wretched.  Laborers in towns lived in mudbrick hovels whose only furnishings were stools, boxes, and a few crude pottery jars.  A surviving verse from the Middle Kingdom tells of the “weaver in the workshop, with knees against his chest,” who “cannot breathe air,” and who is “beaten fifty strokes” if he does not keep up with his work. The main organizational pattern of the paragraph is: 

Consider the circuit shown in Fig. 3, where C 1 = 40 . 0   μ F , C 2 = 60 . 0   μ F , C 3 = 6 . 00   μ F , C 4 = 15 . 0   μ F , C 5 = 45 . 0   μ F , C 6 = 20 . 0   μ F , C 7 = 4 . 00   μ F , C 8 = 6 . 00   μ F , and the electric potential difference between a and b is 12 . 0   V . (a) Find the total capacitance between points a and b. (b) What is the charge on each capacitor? (c) What is the energy in each capacitor? t1_fig_q13_09282025.jpg
