Answer:

The Ic will be zero.

Explanation:

Capacitors have a working principal as follows:

  • As the current flows through the circuit, they store the electrical energy according to certain attributes they have such as the area of the plates and the material's capacitence in between the plates.

An AC voltage increases and decreases between certain maximum and minimum points periodically. So while the AC voltage is on the positive side, the capacitor charges up and when the AC voltage crosses to the negative side, the capacitor takes over and it's current starts increasing as the current coming from the AC source decreases.

So in this case, as the AC voltage crosses zero, the capacitor current was decreasing because the AC voltage was on the positive side and it was charging. The capacitor current will be zero as well and it will start to increase when AC voltage is on the negative.

I hope this answer helps.

Which statements describe using genetic factors to influence the growth of organisms? Select the three (3) that apply.
Damm [24]

Answer:

- increasing use of hybrid crops

- altering genes in DNA to create new plants

- developing disease or pest resistant crops

Explanation:

The use of genetic factors to influence the growth of a plant encompasses manipulating the genetic constituent (gene) of such plant.

For example,

- Increasing use of hybrid crops entails mating two pure bred plants based on a gene of interest responsible for a particular trait, to form a hybrid.

- Altering genes in DNA to create new plants is also a genetic factor as it has to with gene modification.

- developing disease or pest resistant crops means that the genetic make up of such plant has been modified to be resistant to pest/disease.

How large an expansion gap should be left between steel railroad rails if they may reach a maximum temperature 40.0°C greater th
ella [17]

Answer:

19.68 × 10⁻³ m

Explanation:

Given;

Original Length, L₁ = 41.0 m

Temperature Change, ΔT = 40.0°C

Thermal Linear expansion of steel is given to be, ∝_{steel} = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C

   Generally, Linear expansivity is expressed as;

                               ∝ = ΔL / L₁ΔT

Where

∝ is the Linear expansivity

ΔL is the change in length, L₂ - L₁

L₂ is the final length

L₁ is the original length

ΔT is the change in temperature θ₂ - θ₁ (Final Temperature - Initial Temperature)              

From equation of linear expansivity

                         ΔL = ∝_{steel}L₁ΔT

                         ΔL = 12 × 10⁻⁶ /°C × 41.0 m × 40.0 °C

                         ΔL = 19.68 × 10⁻³ m

                         ΔL = 19.68 mm
