The energy stored in a capacitor is
E = (1/2) · (capacitance) · (voltage)²
E = (1/2) · (6 x 10⁻⁶ F) · (12 V)²
E = (3 x 10⁻⁶ F) · (144 V²)
<em>E = 4.32 x 10⁻⁴ Joule</em>
(That's 0.000432 of a Joule)
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>
40 light bulbs
<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
The total resistance of components or bulbs in series is given as the sum of resistance of all the components.
Thus; if there are bulbs in series each with a resistance of 1.5 Ω, the the total resistance will be; 1.5nΩ
From the ohms law;
V = IR , where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistor.
Thus; R = V/i
R = 120/2
= 60 Ω
But, there are n bulbs each with 1.5 Ω; thus there are;
n = 60/1.5
<u> = 40 Bulbs </u>
A child slides down a hill on a toboggan with acceleration of 1.8 m/s2. if she starts from rest, how far has she traveled in: 2 seconds
Answer:
2.4 m
Explanation:
From the question above,
Applying equation of motion,
s = ut+at²/2....................... Equation 1
Where t = time, u = initial velocity, a = acceleration, s = distance.
make s the subject of the equation,
Given: a = 1.8 m/s², t = 2 seconds, u = 0 m/s (from rest)
Substitute these value into equation 1
s = 0(2)+1.8(2²)/2
s = 1.2(4)/2
s = 2.4 m.
Hence she has traveled 2.4 m
