Answer:
Explanation:
<u>Average Acceleration </u>
Acceleration is a physical magnitude defined as the change of velocity over time. When we have experimental data, we can compute it by calculating the slope of the line in velocity vs time graph.
Note: <em>We cannot see if the time axis is numbered in increments of 1 second, and we'll assume that. </em>
When , the graph shows a value of
When , the object is at rest,
We compute the average acceleration as
Answer:
Reactance
Explanation:
In an AC circuit, the capacitive reactance of a capacitor is given by:
where
f is the frequency of the AC current
C is the capacitance of the capacitor
The reactance of the capacitor tells somehow the "resistance" of the capacitor to the passage of current through it. In fact:
- When the frequency of the AC current is zero (this means, we are in regime of DC current), the reactance becomes infinite, and this is true because the capacitor does not let the current pass through it)
- When the frequency of the AC current tends to infinite, the reactance becomes zero, and this is true because in this case the current changes direction so fast that the capacitor has not enough time to "block" the current, so the current almost no feels the presence of the capacitor.
