1) An ac source of period T and maximum voltage V is connected to a single unknown ideal element that is either a resistor, and

inductor, or a capacitor. At time t = 0 the voltage is zero and increasing toward a maximum. At time t = T/4 the current in the unknown element is equal to zero and at time t = T/2 the current is I = -Imax (where Imax is the maximum current amplitude). What is the unknown element?

Answer: Capacitor

Explanation:

Given the following ;

At time, t = T/4 ; I = 0

At time, t = T/2 ; I = - Imax

Where T = period

We can confirm what the unknown element is by using the relation, such that the parameters satisfy the stated condition ;

Recall;

I = Iosin(wt + π/2) [for CAPACITOR]

w = 2π/T

At t = T/4

I = Iosin(2π/T(T/4) + π/2)

I = Iosin(π/2 + π/2)

I = Iosin(0)

I = 0

At t = T/2

I = Iosin(2π/T(T/2) + π/2)

I = Iosin(π + π/2)

I = Iosin(0)

I = Iosin(3π/2)

I = Iosin(540/2)

I = Iosin(270)

I = -Io

Note : Io = Imax

Both conditions are met, Hence, the unknown element is a CAPACITOR.

13. Which compound is most reactive?<br> ethene<br> ethyne<br> ethane
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Ethyne consists of a triple bond that is most easier to be broken as compared to that of ethyne with a double bond and benzene single bonds. Therefore ethyne is most reactive among the given options.

A block of weight mg sits on an inclined plane as shown in (Figure 1) . A force of magnitude F1 is applied to pull the block up
svlad2 [7]

Answer:

W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L,   W = -μ  mg cos θ L

Explanation:

Let's use Newton's second law to find the friction force. In these problems the x axis is taken parallel to the plane and the y axis perpendicular to the plane

Y Axis  

       N - W_{y} =

       N = W_{y}

X axis

       F1 - fr - Wₓ = 0

       fr = F1 - Wₓ

Let's use trigonometry to find the components of the weight

     sin θ = Wₓ / W

     cos θ = W_{y} / W

      Wₓ = W sin θ

      W_{y} = W cos θ

We substitute

      fr = F1 - W sin θ

Work is defined by

        W = F .dx

        W = F dx cos θ

The friction force is parallel to the plane in the negative direction and the displacement is positive along the plane, so the Angle is 180º and the cos θ= -1

         

        W = -fr x

        W = (F1 - mg sin θ) L

Another way to calculate is

         fr = μ N

         fr = μ W cos θ

the work is

         W = -μ  mg cos θ L
