What will be the current when the capacitor has acquired 1/4 of its maximum charge?

Answer:

I = 0.625 Amp

Explanation:

Given:-

- The capacitance of the capacitor, C = 1.50 uF

- The capacitor charges through a resistance, R = 12.0 ohms

- The potential difference of battery, V = 10.0 V

Find:-

What will be the current when the capacitor has acquired 1/4 of its maximum charge?

Solution:-

- Note that the charge is increasing with time while the current across the capacitor decreases. But both obey the exponential equations.

- The charge (Q) obeys the equation:

                             Q = Q_max* ( 1 - e^(-t/RC))

- While the current I obeys the relationship:

                             I = I_max* ( e^(-t/RC) )

- When the charge hs taken 1/4 of its maximum value we can write:

                            0.25*Q_max =  Q_max* ( 1 - e^(-t/RC))

                            0.25 = ( 1 - e^(-t/RC))

                            e^(-t/RC) = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

- Where the current across the capacitor at this time would be:

                            I = I_max* ( e^(-t/RC) )

Where,                 I_max = V / R = ( 10 / 12 )

                            I =  ( 10 / 12 )*( 3 / 4 )

                            I = 0.625 Amp

As SCUBA divers go deeper underwater, the pressure from the weight of all the water above them increases tremendously which comp
slavikrds [6]

Answer: A.

As a diver rises, the pressure on their body decreases which allows the volume of the gas to decrease.

Explanation:

The problem is that a diver, experiences an increased pressure of water compresses nitrogen and more of it dissolves into the body. Just as there is a natural nitrogen saturation point at the surface, there are saturation points under water. Those depend on the depth, the type of body tissue involved, and also how long a diver is exposed to the extra pressure. The deeper a diver go, the more nitrogen the body absorbs.

The problem is getting rid of the nitrogen once you ascend again. As the pressure diminishes, nitrogen starts dissolving out of the tissues of the diver's body, a process called "off-gassing." That results in tiny nitrogen bubbles that then get carried to the lungs and breathed out. However, if there is too much nitrogen and/or it is released too quickly, small bubbles can combine to form larger bubbles, and those can do damage to the body, anything from minor discomforts all the way to major problems and even death.

An us bomber is flying horizontally at 300 mph at an altitude of 610 m. its target is an iraqi oil tanker crusing 25kph in the s
Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

=1419.19 meters.

Explanation:

The time it takes for the shell to drop to the tanker from the height, H =1/2gt²

610m=1/2×9.8×t²

t²=(610m×2)/9.8m/s²

t²=124.49s²

t=11.16 s

Therefore, it takes 11.16 seconds for a free fall from a height of 610m

Range= Initial velocity×time taken to hit the tanker.

R=v₁t

Lets change 300 mph to kph.

=300×1.60934 =482.802 kph

Relative velocity=482.802 kph-25 kph

=457.802 kph

Lets change 11.16 seconds to hours.

=11.16/(3600)

=0.0031 hours.

R=v₁t

=457.802 kph × 0.0031 hours.

=1.41918 km

=1.41919 km × 1000m/km

=1419.19 meters.

Suppose a radio signal (light) travels from Earth and through space at a speed of 3 × 10^8/ (this is the speed of light in vacuu
zlopas [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

we know that

s=vt here v is the speed and s is distance covered by the signals

given data

v=3*10^8

t=10 min we have to convert it into seconds

1 minute=60 seconds

so

10 minutes =10*60/1 =600 seconds

now putting the value of v and t we can find the value of s

s=vt

s=3*10^8*600

s=1.8*10^11m

i hope this will help you
