N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2

liberstina [14]

Answer:

2C

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.

A piece of wood has a mass of 25g and a volume of <br> 10cm3 What is its density?

Tasya [4]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.5 g/cm³</h3>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question we have

$density = \frac{25}{10} = \frac{5}{2} \\$

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.5 g/cm³</h3>

What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point midway between them if the top one carries a current of 19.5 A and the bo

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The magnetic field will be $\large{\dfrac{1.4 \times 10^{-4}}{d}} T$ , '2d' being the distance the wires.

Explanation:

From Biot-Savart's law, the magnetic field ( $\large{\overrightarrow{B}}$ ) at a distance ' $r$ ' due to a current carrying conductor carrying current ' $I$ ' is given by

$\large{\overrightarrow{B} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{4 \pi}} \int \dfrac{\overrightarrow{dl} \times \hat{r}}{r^{2}}}$

where ' $\overrightarrow{dl}$ ' is an elemental length along the direction of the current flow through the conductor.

Using this law, the magnetic field due to straight current carrying conductor having current ' $I$ ', at a distance ' $d$ ' is given by

$\large{\overrightarrow{B}} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2 \pi d}$

According to the figure if ' $I_{t}$ ' be the current carried by the top wire, ' $I_{b}$ ' be the current carried by the bottom wire and ' $2d$ ' be the distance between them, then the direction of the magnetic field at 'P', which is midway between them, will be perpendicular towards the plane of the screen, shown by the $\bigotimes$ symbol and that due to the bottom wire at 'P' will be perpendicular away from the plane of the screen, shown by $\bigodot$ symbol.

Given $\large{I_{t} = 19.5 A}$ and $\large{I_{B} = 12.5 A}$

Therefore, the magnetic field ( $\large{B_{t}}$ ) at 'P' due to the top wire

$B_{t} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{t}}{2 \pi d}$

and the magnetic field ( $\large{B_{b}}$ ) at 'P' due to the bottom wire

$B_{b} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{b}}{2 \pi d}$

Therefore taking the value of $\mu_{0} = 4\pi \times 10^{-7}$ the net magnetic field ( $\large{B_{M}}$ ) at the midway between the wires will be

$\large{B_{M} = \dfrac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7}}{2 \pi d} (I_{t} - I_{b}) = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-7}}{d} = \dfrac{41.4 \times 10 ^{-4}}{d}} T$

Object A has a mass of 100 grams. Object B has a mass of 150 grams. They are both traveling at the same velocity. What can you c

Scilla [17]

-- Momentum is (mass) x (speed).
Object B has 1.5 times as much momentum as Object A has.

-- Kinetic energy is (1/2) x (mass) x (speed) .
Object B has 1.5 times as much kinetic energy as Object A has.

-- If they would both stop long enough to get on the scale,
Object B would weigh 1.5 times as much as Object A does.
