Electronic flash unit cameras contain a capacitor for storing the energy used to produce the flash. In one such unit the flash l

asts for 1/675 s with an average light power output of 2.7❝105 W. (a) If the conversion of electrical energy to light is 95% efficient (the rest of the energy goes to thermal energy) how much energy must be stored in the capacitor for one flash? (b) The capacitor has a potential difference between its plates of 125V when the stored energy equals the value calculated in part (a). What is the capacitance?

Answer:

(A) 421 J energy stored in the capacitor for one flash.

(B) The value of capacitance is 0.0537 F

Explanation:

Given :

(A)

Time t = \frac{1}{675}

Average power P = 2.7 \times 10^{5} W

From power equation,

   P= \frac{E}{t}

So energy in one light is given by,

   E = Pt

  E = 2.7 \times 10^{5} \times \frac{1}{675}  = 400 J

Since efficiency is 95 % so we can write, energy stored in one flash,

E_{tot} = \frac{400}{0.95} = 421 J

(B)

From the formula of energy stored in capacitor,

 E = \frac{1}{2}C V^{2}

Where E = E_{tot} and V = 125 V

 C = \frac{2E}{V^{2} }

 C = \frac{2 \times 421}{15625}

 C = 0.0537 F

The mass of block B is twice the mass of block A, while the mass of the pulley is equal to the mass of block A. The blocks are l
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

C)the right cord pulls on the pulley with greater force than the left cord

Explanation:

As we can see the figure that B is connected to the right string while A is connected to the left string

Now force equation for B as it will move downwards is given as

(2m)g - T_B = (2m)a

similarly for block A which will move upwards we can write the equation as

T_A - mg = ma

now we know that pulley is also rotating so the tangential acceleration of the rope at the contact point with pulley must be same as that of acceleration of the blocks

so here pulley will rotate clockwise direction

So tension in the right string must be more than the left string

So correct answer will be

C)the right cord pulls on the pulley with greater force than the left cord

A tall tree has more chances to break during the strom why?​
S_A_V [24]

Explanation:

Trees, because of their height, are natural lightning rods. Electricity seeks the path of least resistance, and the moisture inside a tree is a much better conductor than air. This means a tree provides the preferred path for lightning to reach the ground.
