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.

What relationship do you see between a star colour and temperature
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Stars emit colors of many different wavelengths, but the wavelength of light where a star's emission is concentrated is related to the star's temperature - the hotter the star, the more blue it is; the cooler the star, the more red it is

You have a 100 ohm resistor. How
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

R2 = 300 Ohms

Explanation:

Let the two resistors be R1 and R2 respectively.

RT is the total equivalent resistance.

Given the following data;

R1 = 100 Ohms

RT = 75 Ohms

To find R2;

Mathematically, the total equivalent resistance of resistors connected in parallel is given by the formula;

RT = \frac {R1*R2}{R1 + R2}

Substituting into the formula, we have;

75 = \frac {100*R2}{100 + R2}

Cross-multiplying, we have;

75 * (100 + R2) = 100R2

7500 + 75R2 = 100R2

7500 = 100R2 - 75R2

7500 = 25R2

R2 = 7500/25

R2 = 300 Ohms
