Answer: t = 0.492τ

Explanation: In a circuit where there is a resistor and a capacitor, the equation for a charging capacitor is given by:

q = q_0(1 - e^{\frac{t}{RC} })

where:

q_0 is the equilibrium charge

q is the charge at time t

RC is time constant also called τ (tau)

For this problem, the circuit is charged to 39%, which means: q = 0.39 q_0

0.39q_0 = q_0 (1 - e^\frac{-t}{RC} )

0.39 = 1 - e^\frac{-t}{RC}

e^\frac{-t}{RC} = 0.61

\frac{-t}{RC} = ln(0.61)

-t = ln(0.61)τ

t = 0.492τ

For the condition to be met it is needed 0.492 time constants must elapse.

Impulse: a certain amount of force you apply for an amount of time.

Impulse: F*t where F= Force & t=time

Momentum: increasing forward motion.

State pascal law and write three instrument which base unit?​
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Pascal's law (also Pascal's principle[1][2][3] or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure) is a principle in fluid mechanics given by Blaise Pascal that states that a pressure change at any point in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted throughout the fluid such that the same change occurs everywhere.[4] The law was established by French mathematician Blaise Pascal in 1653 and published in 1663.[5][6]

if the vapor's volume were to be incorrectly recorded as 125ml, how will this error affect the calculated molar mass of the unkn
diamong [38]
So base on your question that as if the vapors volume were to incorrectly recorded as 125ml, the effect of the error to calculate the molar mass is the same as the error in measuring the volume of the vapor. I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more

How do you solving kinematic equations for horizontal projectiles?
daser333 [38]
See projectiles are very simple unless you understand its core concepts....projectile is nothing just mixture of upward motion and horizontal motion....
THE KEY IS FORGET THE NAME PROJECTILE...ITS JUST HORIZONTAL MOTION + VERTICAL MOTION
