The flash unit in a camera uses a 3.0 V battery to charge acapacitor. The capacitor is then discharged through a flashlamp.The d

ischarge takes 7 µs, andthe average power dissipated in the flashlamp is 8 W. What is the capacitance of the capacitor?

Answer:

C=2.54\cdot 10^5\ F

Explanation:

<u>Energy Stored on a Capacitor</u>

This energy is stored in the electric field present when a voltage V is applied to a capacitor C. It can be computed by the formula

\displaystyle  E=\frac{CV^2}{2}

We can compute the energy by knowing the power dissipated in the flashlamp is P=8 W in a time of 7 \mu s=7\cdot 10^{-6}\ sec

\displaystyle  E=\frac{P}{t}=\frac{8\ W}{7\cdot 10^{-6}\ sec}=1.14\cdot 10^6\ J

Solving the first equation for C

\displaystyle  C=\frac{2E}{V^2}

\displaystyle  C=\frac{2\times 1.14\cdot 10^6}{3^2}

\boxed{C=2.54\cdot 10^5\ F}

VMariaS [17]
<span>CorrectThe direction of the electric field stays the same regardless of the sign of the charges that are free to move in theconductor.Mathematically, you can see that this must be true since the expression you derived for the electric field isindependent of .Physically, this is because the force due to the magnetic field changes sign as well and causes positive charges tomove in the direction (as opposed to pushing negative charges in the direction). Therefore the result isalways the same: positive charges on the side and negative charges on the side. Because the electric fieldgoes from positive to negative charges will always point in the direction (given the original directions of</span>

A calorimeter is used to determine the specific heat capacity of a test metal. If the specific heat capacity of water is known,
denis23 [38]

Answer:

initial and final temperatures of both the water and metal, mass of the metal, and mass of the water

Explanation:

Heat lost by the metal, Q = mc(t_{2} - t_{1})

Heat gained by the water in the calorimeter, Q_{w} = m_{w}c_{w}(t_{2w} - t_{1w})

For energy to be conserved in the system, the heat lost by the metal will equal the heat gain by the water in the calorimeter.

        mc(t_{2} - t_{1}) = m_{w}c_{w}(t_{2w} - t_{1w})

Where,

m is the mass of the metal

c is specific heat capacity of the metal

t₂ is the final temperature of the metal

t₁ is the initial temperature of the metal

m_{w} is the mass of the water

c_{w} is specific heat capacity of water

t_{2w} is the final temperature of water

t_{1w} is the initial temperature of water

From the question given, specific heat capacity of the water is known, the quantities to be measured are;

Initial and final temperatures of both the water and metal,

Mass of the metal, and mass of the water
