The rope vibrates every 0.5 s: it means that its period is

$T=0.5 s$

The frequency of an oscillation is equal to the reciprocal of the period:

$f=\frac{1}{T}$

Therefore, if we substitute T=0.5 s in the formula, we get:

$f=\frac{1}{0.5 s}=2 Hz$

A 20.0 μf capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 850 v. the terminals of the charged capacitor are then connected to

liberstina [14]

(a) $Q = 1.70\times 10^{-2}\;\text{C}$ ;
(b) $V_\text{final} = 5.31\times 10^{2}\;\text{V}$ ;
(c) $E_\text{final} = 4.52\;\text{J}$ ;
(d) $\Delta E = 2.82\;\text{J}$ .

All four values are in 3 sig. fig.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

(a)

$Q = C\cdot V = 20.0\times 10^{-6} \times 850\;\text{V} = 1.70\times 10^{-2}\;\text{J}$ .

(b)

Sum of the final charge on the two capacitors should be the same as the sum of the initial charge. Voltage of the two capacitors should be the same. That is:

$C_1\cdot V_\text{final} +C_2 \cdot V_\text{final} = C_1\cdot V_\text{initial}$ ;

$(C_1+C_2)\cdot V_\text{final} = C_1\cdot V_\text{initial}$ ;

$\displaystyle V_\text{final} = \frac{C_1}{C_1+C_2}\cdot V_\text{initial}\\\phantom{V_\text{final}} = \frac{20.0\;\mu\text{F}}{20.0\;\mu\text{F} + 12.0\;\mu\text{F}} \times 850\;\text{V}\\\phantom{V_\text{final}} =531\;\text{V}$ .

(c)

$\displaystyle E = \frac{1}{2}\cdot C\cdot V^{2}$ .

$\displaystyle E_\text{final} = \frac{1}{2} (C_1 + C_2) \cdot {V_\text{final}}^{2} \\\phantom{E_\text{final}} = \frac{1}{2} \times (20.0\times 10^{-6} + 12.0\times 10^{-6}) \times 531.25\\\phantom{E_\text{final}} = 4.52\;\text{J}$ .

(d)

Initial energy of the system, which is the same as the initial energy in the $20.0\;\mu\text{F}$ capacitor:

$\displaystyle E_\text{initial} = \frac{1}{2} \times 20.0\times 10^{-6} \times 850^{2} = 7.225\;\text{J}$ .

Change in energy:

$\Delta E = 7.225\;\text{J} - 4.516\;\text{J} = 2.70\;\text{J}$ .

When an electron falls from a higher to a lower energy level in an atom, the photon released has a wavelength of 121.6 nm. What

yarga [219]

Answer:

$\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J$

Explanation:

The energy difference between the energy levels involved in the transition of the electron is directly proportional to the frequency of the emitted photon:

$\Delta E=h\nu(1)$

Where h is the Planck constant. The photon's frequency is inversely proportional to its wavelegth:

$\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}(2)$

Here c is the speed of light. Replacing (2) in (1):

$\Delta E=\frac{hc}{\lambda}\\\Delta E=\frac{(6.63*10^{-34}J\cdot s)(3*10^8\frac{m}{s})}{121.6*10^{-9}m}\\\Delta E=1.64*10^{-18}J$

Waning quarter moon: hair removal time and bangs cuts.

The growing quarter as a moment of growth, development and evolution. On the contrary, the waning moon is associated with a time of completion, debugging or liquidation of pending issues.

We must take advantage of the influence of the lunar cycle in our favor according to the action we are going to take. If you have trouble growing your hair, try to go to the hairdresser in a crescent moon: it will grow faster. It is no nonsense. Since I cut my bangs to the Cleopatra, the touch-ups last me for another 1-1.5 weeks. As I reviewed the bangs in a growing room, in just a couple of weeks I was returning to the hairdresser.

That affects hair removal. There are many people who take appointments to the beautician to shave by consulting the lunar calendar. The hair removal done as soon as the dwindling is the best because it lasts longer, lasts for another week until the next appointment.

In deep space, there is very little friction. Once they launch a probe into deep space, where there are no external forces actin

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

move at constant velocity.

Explanation:

Newton's first law (also known as law of inertia) states that:

"when the net force acting on an object is zero, the object will keep its state of rest or if it is moving, it will continue moving at constant velocity".

In the case of the probe, friction in deep space is negligible, therefore when the engine is shut down, there are no more forces acting on the probe: the net force therefore will be zero, so the probe will move at constant velocity.
