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

Two objects experienced the same displacement in the same amount of time. The two objects must have the same -
nikdorinn [45]

If two object experiences the same displacement at the same time, the two objects must have the same average velocity.

The average velocity of an object is defined as the change in displacement per change in time of motion. This can be written as follows;

avg. \ velocity = \frac{\Delta \ displacement }{\Delta \ time} \\\\V = \frac{\Delta \ x}{\Delta t}

If two object experiences the same displacement at the same time, it means that the change in displacement with time is constant.

\frac{\Delta x_1}{\Delta t_1} = \frac{\Delta x_2}{\Delta t_2} = V_{avg}

Thus, we can conclude that if two object experiences the same displacement at the same time, the two objects must have the same average velocity.

A 20-cm-long, 190 g rod is pivoted at one end. A 19 g ball of clay is stuck on the other end.
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

0.76 s

Explanation:

We are given that

Length of rod,L=20 cm=\frac{20}{100}=0.20m

1 m=100 cm

Mass of rod,M=190 g=\frac{190}{1000}=0.19kg

Mass of ball,m=19 g=\frac{19}{1000}=0.019 kg

Using 1 kg=1000g

We have to find the period if the rod and clay swing as a  pendulum.

Moment of inertia of rod-clay=Moment of inertia of rod+moment of inertia of clay

I_{rod-clay}=I_{rod}+I_{clay}

I_{rod-clay}=\frac{1}{3}ML^2+mL^2

Substitute the values then we get

I_[rod-clay}=\frac{1}{3}(0.19)(0.20)^2+(0.019)(0.20)^2

I_{rod-clay}=3.29\times 10^{-3} kgm^2

Now, the center of mass of the combination of the rod and clay is given by

y=\frac{Md_1+md_2}{M+m}

Substitute d_1=\frac{L}{2}=Distance between pivot and the center of the rod

d_2=L=The distance  between rod and clay

Using the formula

y=\frac{0.19\times \frac{0.20}{2}+0.019\times 0.20}{0.19+0.019}

y=0.1091 m

Time period of the oscillation of the system of the rod and the clay is given by

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{I_{rod-clay}}{(M+m)yg}}

g=9.8m/s^2

Using the formula

Time period=2\times 3.14\sqrt{\frac{3.29\times 10^{-3}}{(0.19+0.019)\times 9.8\times 0.1091}}

Time-period=0.76 s

Hence, the period =0.76 s

330 grams of boiling water (temperature 100°C, specific heat capacity 4.2 J/K/gram) are poured into an aluminum pan whose mass i
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

T = 74°C

Explanation:

Given Mw = mass of water = 330g, Ma = mass of aluminium = 840g

Cw = 4.2gJ/g°C = specific heat capacity of water and Ca = 0.9J/g°C = specific heat capacity of aluminium

Initial temperature of water = 100°C.

Initial temperature of aluminium = 29°C

When the boiling water is poured into the aluminum pan, heat is exchanged and after a short time the water and aluminum pan both come to thermal equilibrium at a common temperature T.

Heat lost by water equal to the heat gained by aluminium pan.

Mw × Cw×(100 –T) = Ma × Ca × (T–29)

330×4.2×(100– T) = 890×0.9×(T–29)

1386(100 – T) = 801(T –29)

1386/801(100 – T) = T – 29

1.73(100 – T) = T – 29

173 –1.73T = T –29

173+29 = T + 1.73T

202 = 2.73T

T = 202/2.73

T = 74°C
