Voltage across capacitor, V = 2.0V
Capacitance of Capacitor, C = 4.0 μF
Charge stored in Capacitor, Q = ?

The capacitance formula, C = Q/V
We can rewrite this as Q = CV

Therefore, the amount of charge stored in this capacitor = 2.0 * 4.0 μC
= 8.0 μC

Answer:
Q = 8 μC

Explanation:
The relation between voltage, capacitance and charge can be expressed using the following rule:
Q = C * V
where:
Q is the amount of charge that we want to calculate
C is the capacitance = 4 * 10⁻⁶ F
V is the voltage applied = 2 V

Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the amount of charge as follows:
Q = C * V
Q= 4 * 10⁻⁶ * 2
Q = 8 * 10⁻⁶ Coulumb
Q = 8 μC

Hope this helps :)

What is the study of kinematics based upon ? thankyou ~

NikAS [45]

Kinematics is the study of the motion of a system of bodies without directly considering the forces or potential fields affecting the motion. In other words, kinematics examines how momentum and energy are shared among interacting bodies.

Which best describes a difference between laser light and regular light?

Inga [223]

The basic difference is that the ordinary sources are incoherent that means that the discrete frequencies merge up to give an intermediate between the maximum and minimum frequencies. While the laser is coherent containing the single frequency with maximum amplitude. thus travelling far.

The velocity of a car changes from 20 m/s east to 5 m/s east in 5 seconds. What is the acceleration of the car?

Klio2033 [76]

$acceleration = \frac{ v_{2}- v_{1} }{t} = \frac{5-20}{5} =-3m/s^{2}$

What are the output waveforms of the following waves, after passing through a transformer?

Ber [7]

The output waveforms after passing through the transformer actually depend on the type of transformer used. It could either be a step-up transformer (steps voltage up), or a step-down transformer (steps voltage down). Both transformers have an output voltage in a form of a sine wave.

The mass of the Sun is 2multiply1030 kg, and the mass of the Earth is 6multiply1024 kg. The distance from the Sun to the Earth i

spayn [35]

Answer:

a) 3.56 x 10^22 N

b) 3.56 x 10^22 N

Explanation:

Mass of the sun M = 2 x 10^30 kg

mass of the Earth m = 6 x 10^24 kg

Distance between the sun and the Earth R = 1.5 x 10^11 m

From Newton's law,

F = $\frac{GMm}{R^2}$

where F is the gravitational force between the sun and the Earth

G is the gravitational constant = 6.67 × 10^-11 m^3 kg^-1 s^-2

m is the mass of the Earth

M is the mass of the sun

R is the distance between the sun and the Earth.

Substituting values, we have

F = $\frac{6.67*10^{-11}*2*10^{30}*6*10^{24}}{(1.5*10^{11})^2}$ = 3.56 x 10^22 N

A) The force exerted by the sun on the Earth is equal to the force exerted by the Earth on the Sun also, and the force is equal to 3.56 x 10^22 N

b) The force exerted by the Earth on the Sun = 3.56 x 10^22 N
