Answer:

q = 24 cos (20t) (1- e (-t / 1.2))

Explanation:

To work this circuit we use the mesh equation (Kirchoff) that states that the voltage in a closed circuit is zero

           Vg + Vr + Vc = 0

Where Vg is the generator voltage, Vr the resistance voltage and Vc the capacitor voltage

         Vg = 120 cos 20t  = V

         Vr = i R

         Vc = q / C

We see that in one term we have the current (i) and in another the load (q), but there is a relationship between the two

         i = dq / dt

Let's replace in the initial equation

       V + R dq / dt + q / C = 0

Reorder the terms

      Rdq / dt + q / C - V = 0

      dq / dt + q / rC - V / R = 0

      dq / dt = V / r -q / RC

       dq / (V / R -q / RC) = dt

we integrate

     ∫I dq / (V / R - 1 / RC q) = ∫ dt

We change variables

      u = (V / R - 1 / RC q)

      du = -1 / RC dq

     ∫ dq / (V / R - 1 / RC q) = -RC ∫ du / u

     -RC ln u = -RC ln (V / R - 1 / RC q)

We evaluate between the limits of integration, the lower t = 0 q (0) = 0

     -RC [ln (V / R - 1 / RC q) - ln (V / R)] = t

     [ln (V / R - 1 / RC q) - ln (V / R)] = -t / RC

     Ln (V / R - 1 / RC q) / (V / R)] = -t / RC

     Ln (1 - 1 / VC q)) = (-t / RC)

     Ln (VC- q) = ln (VC) (-t / RC)

     VC-q = VC e (-t / RC)

     q = VC - Vc e (-t / RC)

     q = VC (1- e (-t / RC)

We substitute the values ​​they give us

      q = (120 cos (20t) 0.2) (1- e (-t / 6 0.2))

      q = 24 cos (20t) (1- e (-t / 1.2))

loris [4]

Answer:

The angle for the forward Mach line is 19.47°

The angle for the rearward Mach line is 5.21°

Explanation:

From table A-1 (Modern Compressible Flow: with historical perspective):

\frac{P_{o} }{P_{1} } =36.73 (M₁ = 3)

If Po₁ = Po₂

\frac{P_{o2} }{P_{2} } =\frac{P_{o1} }{P_{1} } *\frac{P_{1} }{P_{2} } =36.73*\frac{1}{4} =91.825

Table A-1:

\frac{P_{o2} }{P_{2} } =91.825,M_{2} =3.63

Table A-5:

v₁ = 49.76°

μ₁ = 19.47°

v₂ = 60.55°

μ₂ = 16°

θ = 60.55 - 49.76 = 10.79°

The angle for the forward Mach line is:

μ₁ = 19.47°

The angle for the rearward Mach line is:

θr = μ₂ - θ = 16 - 10.79 = 5.21°

A helium nucleus contains two protons and two neutrons. The mass of the helium nucleus is greater than the combined masses of tw
dsp73

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Actually, the converse is true. The mass number would be lower than the sum of the mass of the individual nucleons combined. According to Einstein’s equation of E=MC², this will be due to a phenomenon called mass defect. This ‘anomaly’ is due to the loss of some energy (now the nuclear binding energy) when the nucleons were brought in together to form the nucleus.

Which explanation best describes a wave?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

C. a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and without a transfer of matter

Explanation:

A wave is any disturbance that transfers energy from one location to the other via a substance called medium. It is important to note that a wave only conveys energy and not matter. For example, sound wave is a type of wave that carries sound energy from one place to another via mediums such as water, air etc.

Hence, according to this question, a wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium with a transfer of energy and WITHOUT A TRANSFER OF MATTER.
