Answer:

it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC

Explanation:

Qi= C×V

then:

Vi = Q/C = 30μ/20μ = 1.5 volts

and:

Vf = Q/C = 10μ/20μ = 0.5 volts

then:

v = v₀e^(–t/τ)  

v₀ is the initial voltage on the cap  

v is the voltage after time t  

R is resistance in ohms,  

C is capacitance in farads  

t is time in seconds  

RC = τ = time constant  

τ = 20µ x 1.5k = 30 ms  

v = v₀e^(t/τ)  

0.5 = 1.5e^(t/30ms)  

e^(t/30ms) = 10/3  

t/30ms = 1.20397

t = (30ms)(1.20397) = 36.12 ms

Therefore, it will take 36.12 ms to reduce the capacitor's charge to 10 μC.

This mathematical model describes the changes that occur in a sample of
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

the correct answer is B

Explanation:

The kinetic model of the movement describes that the movement of the molecules increases with the increase of their internal energy, which in a macroscopic sample is reflected in an increase in the temperature of the sample.

The sample graph shows the function of temperature over time, which is why our kinetic model establishes that there is an increase in the movement of water molecules.

Consequently the correct answer is B

Polaczono szeregowo cewke ul=120 rezystor ur=100 i kondensator uc=50 Napiecie miezone voltomierzem nie moze byc: u>100 u<1
romanna [79]

Answer:

<u>Translated from Polish language:</u>

  • Coil connected in series ul = 120 resistor ur = 100 and capacitor uc = 50 Voltage with voltmeter must not be:
  • The voltmeter must not be connected in series rather it should be connected in parallel to the circuit to provide much effective results for analyzing the circuits potential difference.

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

wave speed= constant

frequency = increase

wavelength = decrease

Explanation:

Solution:

- The three basic parameters of a wave are speed, frequency and wavelength. These three parameters are related to each other by an expression:

                                             v = f * λ

Where,

- v is the speed of the wave in m/s.

- f frequency of the wave in Hz.

- λ wavelength of the wave in m

- We are asked how would each of these parameter change if we move the hand up and down faster. The hand moves from a crest to trough faster than before and back again. We can see that the time between a cycle has decreased; hence, frequency f increases. Consequently, we can see that wave speed v remains constant - the medium of transfer of wave energy - remains same. Then from our relation above if we hold speed constant and increase f then the wavelength λ would have to decrease.
