The time constant determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge.

To find the answer, we have to know more about the time constant of the capacitor.

<h3>What is time constant?</h3>

The time it takes for a capacitor to discharge 36.8% of its charge in a discharging circuit or charge up to 63.2% of its maximum capacity in a charging circuit, given that it has no initial charge, is the time constant of a resistor-capacitor series combination.
The circuit's reaction to a step-up (or constant) voltage input is likewise determined by the time constant.
As a result, the time constant determines the circuit's cutoff frequency.

Thus, we can conclude that, the time constant determines how long it takes for the capacitor to charge.

A buoy is a floating device that can have many purposes, but often as a locator for ships. Collin constructs a hollow metal buoy

Yuri [45]

Answer:

A) since the density of the buoy is half the density of sea water when the buoy is at rest on an ocean half of the buoy will be submerged in water

B )angular frequency ( w ) = $\sqrt{\frac{3g}{h} }$

c ) h = 1.34 m ( 4 $\pi ^{2}$ / 3g )

Explanation:

A) since the density of the buoy is half the density of sea water when the buoy is at rest on an ocean half of the buoy will be submerged in water this is because the substances with lesser density floats when placed in a substance with a higher density

B ) when the Buoy is at rest ( t = 0 ) and is then pushed down calculate angular frequency ( w ) of small oscillations in terms of the given variables

volume of cone = hA /3.

h = height of cone, A = Base Area.

therefore the total volume of the Buoy above water level ( at rest )

= ( $\pi r^{2} * \frac{h}{3}$ ) * 2 = $\frac{\pi r^{2} h }{6}$

The part of the buoy immersed in water = x

then the net upward force will be

fb ( force of Buoy ) = fg ( force of gravity )

note force = Mass * Acceleration

force of buoy = $\frac{\alpha }{2} *$ $\frac{\pi r^{2} }{h}$ * a = ( force of gravity ) $\alpha * T\frac{r^{2} }{4} * x * g$

therefore a = $\frac{3g}{h} * x$

angular frequency ( w ) = $\sqrt{\frac{3g}{h} }$

C ) height of the each cone

$\frac{2\pi }{w} = 1$ therefore w = 2 $\pi$

back to the angular frequency : $\frac{3g}{h} = 4\pi ^{2}$

therefore h = 1.34 m ( 4 $\pi ^{2}$ / 3g )

How does deformation by drawing of a semicrystalline polymer affect its tensile strength?

Elenna [48]

This effect is explained by increased chain entanglements at higher molecular weights. Increasing the degree of crystallinity of a semicrystalline polymer leads to an enhancement of the tensile strength. Deformation by drawing increases the tensile strength of a semicrystalline polymer.
