Mona said, "I think that, when there is no lid, convection is the main way that energy escapes from the water". Has she drawn a good conclusion from her results? Explain your ideas.

Ohm's law tells you that i = v/r where v is equivalent voltage and r is equivalent resistance of the circuit
since all circuits have the same voltage, your question is really asking which circuit has the lowest total resistance, since the lower the resistance, the higher the current
circuit a has a resistance of 5 ohms; circuit c is in series so has a resistance of 10 ohms; circuit b is in parallel and therefore has a resistance of 2.5 ohms (review your notes on adding resistances in parallel and series); therefore b has the highest current

Ke reqd to move from 0 to 50 will be proportional to 50x50 or 2500. this is equal to w.  to change vel from 50 to 150 you need energy prop to 22500 - 2500 = 20,000. this corresponds to 8w.  best answer is a) . work reqd is prop to velocity squared.
