Answer:

Part a)

V = 15 Volts

Part b)

P = 180 Watt

Part c)

Rate = 720 Watt

Explanation:

Part a)

When battery is in charging then the potential difference of the terminals of cell is given by

\Delta V = EMF + iR

here we know that

EMF = 12 volts

i = 60 A

r = 0.050 ohm

now we have

\Delta V = 12 + (0.050)(60) = 15 Volts

Part b)

Rate of thermal energy dissipated is the energy which is dissipating across the resistor

so here we have

P = i^2 R

P = (60^2)(0.05)

P = 180 Watt

Part c)

Rate at which Energy stored inside the cell is the rate of electrical energy that is converted into the chemical energy

Rate = EMF \times i

Rate = (12)(60)

Rate = 720 Watt

A 2. 0 μf and a 4. 0 μf capacitor are connected in series across an 8. 0-v dc source. what is the charge on the 2. 0 μf capacito
Nezavi [6.7K]

voltage across 2.0μf capacitor is 5.32v

Given:

C1=2.0μf

C2=4.0μf

since two capacitors are in series there equivalent capacitance will be

[tex] \frac{1}{c} = \frac{1}{c1} + \frac{1}{c2} [/tex]

c =  \frac{c1 \times c2}{c1 + c2}

=  \frac{2 \times 4}{2 + 4}

=1.33μf

As the capacitance of a capacitor is equal to the ratio of the stored charge to the potential difference across its plates, giving: C = Q/V, thus V = Q/C as Q is constant across all series connected capacitors, therefore the individual voltage drops across each capacitor is determined by its its capacitance value.

Q=CV

given,V=8v

= 1.33 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}  \times 8

= 10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6}

charge on 2.0μf capacitor is

\frac{Qeq}{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=  \frac{10.64 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }{2 \times 10 {}^{ - 6} }

=5.32v

__________ helps us adapt to our environment. It also generally __________ with age. A. Plasticity . . . decreases B. Developmen
Nana76 [90]
Not sure this is a physics question (probably biology).
Anyway, the correct answer is A):
"Plasticity helps us to adapt to our environment. It also generally decreases with age".
Plasticity is the ability to adapt to the environment. Since this ability is linked with brain functions, and brain functions worsen with age, then plasticity decreases with age.

Elaborate on the classification of aluminum. A) Aluminum is a noble gas and has a full valence electron shell, is chemically non
scZoUnD [109]
The correct option is (B) <span>Aluminum is a metal and is shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.

Since Aluminium is in group 13, and all the elements in group 13 are either metals or metalloids(Boron). Hence we are left with option (B) and (D). Boron is the only metalloid in group 13 and aluminium is a metal(not a metalloid); therefore, we are left with only one option which is Option (B). And Aluminium is </span>shiny, malleable, ductile, conducts heat and electricity, forms basic oxides, and forms cations in aqueous solution.<span>
