N capacitors are connected in parallel to form a "capacitor circuit". The capacitance of first capacitor is C, second one is C/2

and third one is C/4, forth one is C/8 and so on. Namely, capacitance of a capacitor is one-half of the previous one. What is the equivalent capacitance of this parallel combination when N goes to inifinity?

Answer:

2C

Explanation:

The equivalent capacitance of a parallel combination of capacitors is the sum of their capacitance.

So, if the capacitance of each capacitor is half the previous one, we have a geometric series with first term = C and rate = 0.5.

Using the formula for the sum of the infinite terms of a geometric series, we have:

Sum = First term / (1 - rate)

Sum = C / (1 - 0.5)

Sum = C / 0.5 = 2C

So the equivalent capacitance of this parallel connection is 2C.

Answer: The hierarchical formation model suggests that galaxies may have been formed  by subsequent mergers of smaller galaxies and that today each galaxy houses at least  a supermassive black hole.

Explanation: During a fusion of galaxies, the stars that composes it suffer the tidal force, intensifying your action as the galaxies approaching. When two galaxies merges themselves, the astronomers believes that they loss a huge part of their mass, forming the supremassive black hole, that stays in the middle of the galaxie.

The supermassive black holes are originated from the evolution of high mass stars. They were formed by huge clouds of gas or clusters of millions of stars that collapsed on their own gravity when the universe was still much younger and denser.

What is the ACCELERATION of a 50 kg object pushed with a force of 500 newtons *
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>10 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

To find the acceleration of an object given the force and mass we use the formula

<h3>acceleration =  \frac{force}{mass}</h3>

From the question

mass of object = 50 kg

force = 500 N

So the acceleration is

<h3>acceleration =  \frac{500}{50}  \\  =  \frac{50}{5}</h3>

We have the final answer as

<h3>10 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you
