Answer:

(a). The time constant of the circuit is 2.17.

(b). The potential difference across the capacitor at t=17.0 s is 0.0396 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial potential difference = 100 V

Potential difference across the capacitor = 1.00 V

(a). We need to calculate the time constant of the circuit

Using formula of potential difference

V(t)=V_{0}e^{\dfrac{-t}{RC}}

Put the value into the formula

1.00=100e^{\dfrac{-10.0}{RC}}

0.01=e^{\dfrac{-10.0}{RC}}

On taking ln

ln(0.01)=\dfrac{-10}{RC}

RC=\dfrac{-10}{ln(0.01)}

RC=2.17

(b). We need to calculate the potential difference across the capacitor at t=17.0 s

Using formula again

V(17)=100e^{\dfrac{-17}{2.17}}

V{17}=0.0396\ V

Hence, (a). The time constant of the circuit is 2.17.

(b). The potential difference across the capacitor at t=17.0 s is 0.0396 V.

Se golpea una pelota de golf de manera que su velocidad inicial forma un ángulo de 45° con la horizontal. La pelota alcanza el s
nordsb [41]

Answer:

42m/s

6.06s

Explanation:

To find the initial velocity and time in which the ball is fling over the ground you use the following formulas:

x_{max}=\frac{v_o^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\\x_{max}=vt_{max}

θ: angle = 45°

vo: initial velocity

g: gravitational constant = 9.8m/s^2

x_max: max distance = 180 m

t_max: max time

by replacing the values of the parameters and do vo the subject of the first formula you obtain:

v_o=\sqrt{\frac{gx_{max}}{sin(2\theta)}}\\\\v_o=\sqrt{\frac{(9.8m/s^2)(180m)}{sin(2(45\°))}}=42\frac{m}{s}

with this value of vo you calculate the max time:

t_{max}=\frac{x_{max}}{v}=\frac{x_{max}}{v_ocos(45\°)}\\\\t_{max}=\frac{180m}{(42m/s)cos(45\°)}=6.06s

hence, the initial velocity of the ball is 42m/s and the time in which the ball is in the air is 6.06s

TRANSLATION:

Para encontrar la velocidad inicial y el tiempo en el que la pelota está volando sobre el suelo, use las siguientes fórmulas:

θ: ángulo = 45 °

vo: velocidad inicial

g: constante gravitacional = 9.8m / s ^ 2

x_max: distancia máxima = 180 m

t_max: tiempo máximo

reemplazando los valores de los parámetros y haciendo el tema de la primera fórmula que obtiene:

con este valor de vo usted calcula el tiempo máximo:

por lo tanto, la velocidad inicial de la pelota es de 42 m / sy el tiempo en que la pelota está en el aire es de 6.06 s

Define velocity is the question
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The velocity of an object is the rate of change of its position with respect to a frame of reference, and is a function of time. Velocity is equivalent to a specification of an object's speed and direction of motion (e.g. 60 km/h to the north).
