Answer:

At the bottom.

Explanation:

A pendulum possess two types of energies i.e. kinetic energy and potential energy. We know that a pendulum oscillates about its mean position. At both extreme points, it have zero kinetic energy and maximum potential energy. As it swings down, its potential energy gets converted to the kinetic energy.

As a result, it have zero potential energy and maximum kinetic energy at the bottom point. Hence, the pendulum have the greatest kinetic energy at the bottom.

At the lowest point of its motion, kinetic energy is maximum and potential energy is minimum. This is where the velocity is a maximum. At the highest point of its motion, kinetic energy is minimum (i.e. zero) and potential energy is maximum.

Answer:

(a).The maximum current in the wire is $4.217\times10^{5}\ A$ .

(b). The electric field in the wire is $11.2\times10^{5}\ N/C$ .

(c).The current also decrease with time.

(d). The total amount of energy dissipated in the wire is $1.126\times10^{-5}\ J$

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter of metal plates = 10 cm

Distance between the plates = 1.0 cm

Charged = 12.5 nC

Diameter of copper wire = 0.224 mm

We need to calculate the cross section area of the plates

Using formula of area

$A=\pi r^2$

Put the value into the formula

$A=\pi\times(5\times10^{-2})^2$

$A=7.85\times10^{-3}\ m^2$

We need to calculate the capacitor

Using formula of capacitor

$C=\dfrac{\epsilon_{0}A}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$C=\dfrac{8.85\times10^{-12}\times7.85\times10^{-3}}{1.0\times10^{-2}}$

$C=6.94\times10^{-12}\ F$

We need to calculate the resistance of the wire

Using formula of resistivity

$R=\dfrac{\rho l}{A}$

Put the value into the formula

$R=\dfrac{1.7\times10^{-8}\times1.0\times10^{-2}}{\pi\times(0.1125\times10^{-3})^2}$

$R=4.27\times10^{-3}\ \Omega$

We need to calculate the voltage

Using formula of charge

$q=CV$

$V=\dfrac{q}{C}$

Put the value into the formula

$V=\dfrac{12.5\times10^{-9}}{6.94\times10^{-12}}$

$V=1.801\times10^{3}\ V$

(a). We need to calculate the current

Using formula of current

$I=\dfrac{V}{R}$

$I=\dfrac{1.801\times10^{3}}{4.27\times10^{-3}}$

$I=421779.85\ A$

$I=4.217\times10^{5}\ A$

(b). We need to calculate the electric field

Using formula of electric field

$E=\dfrac{kq}{r^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{9\times10^{9}\times12.5\times10^{-9}}{(1.0\times10^{-2})^2}$

$E=11.2\times10^{5}\ N/C$

The electric field in the wire is $11.2\times10^{5}\ N/C$ .

(c). In this case, the voltage between the capacitor plates decreases as the charge decreases with time.

The current is directly proportional to the voltage between the plates .

Hence, The current also decrease with time.

(d). We need to calculate the total amount of energy dissipated in the wire

Using formula of energy

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}CV^2$

Put the value into the formula

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times6.94\times10^{-12}\times(1.801\times10^{3})^2$

$E=1.126\times10^{-5}\ J$

The total amount of energy dissipated in the wire is $1.126\times10^{-5}\ J$

Hence, (a).The maximum current in the wire is $4.217\times10^{5}\ A$ .

(b). The electric field in the wire is $11.2\times10^{5}\ N/C$ .

(c).The current also decrease with time.

(d). The total amount of energy dissipated in the wire is $1.126\times10^{-5}\ J$

Answer:

OC, The Tariff of Abominations caused conflicts between the North and the South regarding their sectional interests.

Explanation:

The Tariff of Abominations did cause conflicts because it widened income inequality since it favored the rich upper class while burdening the lower class. The South was the lower class, and the North was more of the upper class.

Despite the risks, Human populations can be found near volcanoes. This can be associated with the availability of which natural resource?

Geothermal energy

Geothermal energy is the form of energy obtained from the heat of the earth. Near volcanoes the land is more hot compared to the normal areas. So, the heat of the lava will help in producing Geothermal energy...~
