You charge an initially uncharged 89.9-mf capacitor through a 30.5-ω resistor by means of a 9.00-v battery having negligible int

ernal resistance. find the time constant of the circuit. what is the charge of the capacitor 1.57 time constants after the circuit is closed? what is the charge after a long time?

<span>1) The differential equation that models the RC circuit is :

(d/dt)V_capacitor </span>+ (V_capacitor/RC)​ = (V_source/<span>RC)​​</span>

<span>Where the time constant of the circuit is defined by the product of R*C

Time constant = T = R*C = (</span>30.5 ohms) * (89.9-mf) = 2.742 s


2)
C<span>harge of the capacitor 1.57 time constants

1.57*(2.742) = 4.3048 s

The solution of the differential equation is

</span>V_capac (t) = (V_capac(0) - V_capac(∞<span>))e ^(-t /T)  +  </span>V_capac(∞)

Since the capacitor is initially uncharged V_capac(0) = 0

And the maximun Voltage the capacitor will have in this configuration is the voltage of the battery  V_capac(∞) = 9V 

This means,

V_capac (t) = (-9V)e ^(-t /T)  +  9V

The charge in a capacitor is defined as Q = C*V

Where C is the capacitance and V is the Voltage across

V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /T)  +  9V

V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /2.742 s)  +  9V

V_capac (4.3048 s) = (-9V)e ^(-4.3048 s /2.742 s)  +  9V = -1.87V +9V

V_capac (4.3048 s) = 7.1275 V

Q (4.3048 s)  = 89.9mF*(7.1275V) = 0.6407 C

3) The charge after a very long time refers to the maximum charge the capacitor will hold in this circuit. This occurs when the voltage accross its terminals is equal to the voltage of the battery = 9V

Q (∞)  = 89.9mF*(9V) = 0.8091 C

A player holds two baseballs a height h above the ground. He throws one ball vertically upward at speed v0 and the other vertica
Degger [83]

Answer:

a)  v = √(v₀² + 2g h),    b)      Δt = 2 v₀ / g

Explanation:

For this exercise we will use the mathematical expressions, where the directional towards at is considered positive.

The velocity of each ball is

ball 1. thrown upwards vo is positive

        v² = v₀² - 2 g (y-y₀)

in this case the height y is zero and the height i = h

        v = √(v₀² + 2g h)

ball 2 thrown down, in this case vo is negative

         v = √(v₀² + 2g h)

The times to get to the ground

ball 1

         v = v₀ - g t₁

         t₁ = \frac{v_{o}  - v }{ g}

ball 2

         v =  -v₀ - g t₂

         t₂ = -  \frac{v_{o}  + v }{ g}  

From the previous part, we saw that the speeds of the two balls are the same when reaching the ground, so the time difference is

       Δt = t₂ -t₁

       Δt = \frac{1}{g} \ [(v_{o} - v)  - ( - v_{o}  - v) ]

       Δt = 2 v₀ / g

What is the frequency of orange light is it has a wavelength of 6.2 x 10^-6<br> meters?
Tanya [424]

λ=v/f

λ-wavelength

v-speed

f-frequency

we have the wavelength(6.2 x 10^-6meters) and we use the speed of light which is equal to 3*10^8m/s

6.2*10^-6m=3*10^8m/s/f

f=(3*10^8m/s)/(6.2*10^-6)≈0.48*10^14Hz

An object will begin moving from rest when acted upon by which forces?
denis23 [38]

Answer:

C. The gravity acceleration is in the same direction as the force of gravity, and thus toward the center of the earth.

Explanation:

[ More info.- It doesn't affect the body when it is at the rest, and when it is in motion, it acts toward the center of the Earth and it's component is known as "Centripetal force" ]

At takeoff, a commercial jet has a speed of 72 m/s. Its tires have a diameter of 0.89 m. Part (a) At how many rev/min are the ti
34kurt

Answer:

a) Revolutions per minute = 2.33

b) Centripetal acceleration = 11649.44 m/s²

Explanation:

a) Angular velocity is the ratio of linear velocity and radius.

Here linear velocity = 72 m/s

Radius, r  = 0.89 x 0. 5 = 0.445 m

Angular velocity

         \omega =\frac{72}{0.445}=161.8rad/s

Frequency

         f=\frac{2\pi}{\omega}=\frac{2\times \pi}{161.8}=0.0388rev/s=2.33rev/min

Revolutions per minute = 2.33

b) Centripetal acceleration

               a=\frac{v^2}{r}

  Here linear velocity = 72 m/s

  Radius, r  = 0.445 m

Substituting

   a=\frac{72^2}{0.445}=11649.44m/s^2

Centripetal acceleration = 11649.44m/s²
