(a) On the coil: 20 V, on the resistor: 0 V

The sum of the potential difference across the coil and the potential difference across the resistor is equal to the voltage provided by the battery, V = 20 V:

V = V_R + V_L

The potential difference across the inductance is given by

V_L(t) = V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} (1)

where

\tau = \frac{L}{R}=\frac{0.005 H}{6.00 \Omega}=8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s is the time constant of the circuit

At time t=0,

V_L(0) = V e^0 = V = 20 V

So, all the potential difference is across the coil, therefore the potential difference across the resistor will be zero:

V_R = V-V_L = 20 V-20 V=0

(b) On the coil: 0 V, on the resistor: 20 V

Here we are analyzing the situation several seconds later, which means that we are analyzing the situation for

t >> \tau

Since \tau is at the order of less than milliseconds.

Using eq.(1), we see that for t >> \tau, the exponential becomes zero, and therefore the potential difference across the coil is zero:

V_L = 0

Therefore, the potential difference across the resistor will be

V_R = V-V_L = 20 V- 0 = 20 V

(c) Yes

The two voltages will be equal when:

V_L = V_R (2)

Reminding also that the sum of the two voltages must be equal to the voltage of the battery:

V=V_L +V_R

And rewriting this equation,

V_R = V-V_L

Substituting into (2) we find

V_L = V-V_L\\2V_L = V\\V_L=\frac{V}{2}=10 V

So, the two voltages will be equal when they are both equal to 10 V.

(d) at t=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s

We said that the two voltages will be equal when

V_L=\frac{V}{2}

Using eq.(1), and this last equation, this means

V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} = \frac{V}{2}

And solving the equation for t, we find the time t at which the two voltages are equal:

e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}}=\frac{1}{2}\\-\frac{t}{\tau}=ln(1/2)\\t=-\tau ln(0.5)=-(8.33\cdot 10^{-4} s)ln(0.5)=5.77\cdot 10^{-4}s

(e-a) -19.2 V on the coil, 19.2 V on the resistor

Here we have that the current in the circuit is

I_0 = 3.20 A

The problem says this current is stable: this means that we are in a situation in which t>>\tau, so the coil has no longer influence on the circuit, which is operating as it is a normal circuit with only one resistor. Therefore, we can find the potential difference across the resistor using Ohm's law

V=I_0 R = (3.20 A)(6.0 \Omega)=19.2 V

Then the battery is removed from the circuit: this means that the coil will discharge through the resistor.

The voltage on the coil is given by

V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} (1)

which means that it is maximum at the moment when the battery is disconnected, when t=0:

V_L(0)=.V

And V this time is the voltage across the resistor, 19.2 V (because the coil is now connected to the resistor, not to the battery). So, the voltage across the coil will be -19.2 V, and the voltage across the resistor will be the same in magnitude, 19.2 V (since the coil and the resistor are connected to the same points in the circuit): however, the signs of the potential difference will be opposite.

(e-b) 0 V on both

After several seconds,

t>>\tau

If we use this approximation into the formula

V_L(t) = -V e^{-\frac{t}{\tau}} (1)

We find that

V_L = 0

And since now the resistor is directly connected to the coil, the voltage in the resistor will be the same as the coil, so 0 V. This means that the coil has completely discharged, and current is no longer flowing through the circuit.

A ball rolls with a speed of 2.0m/s across a level table that is 1.0m above the floor. Upon reaching the edge of the table it fo
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:0.58 m

Explanation:

The initial velocity of the ball is u = 2.0 m/s

The height of the table is, h = 1.0 m

The ball falls in vertical direction under acceleration due to gravity.

Time taken for ball to hit the floor:

h= ut + 0.5gt² ( from the equation of motion)

1.0 m=2.0 m/s × t+0.5 × 9.8 m/s²× t²

Solving this for t,

t = 0.29 s ( we have neglected the negative value of t)

In the same time, the ball would cover a horizontal distance of :

s = u t

⇒s = 2.0 m/s×0.29 s = 0.58 m

Thus, the landing spot is 0.58 m away from the table.

A wave will go faster through a liquid at ____________ temperatures
cupoosta [38]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Higher temperatures

A wave will go faster through a liquid at <em><u>highe</u></em><u>r </u>temperatures

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Mechanical waves are types of waves that require a material medium for transmission.</u></em> An example of mechanical wave is the sound wave whose transmission occurs in medium such as solids, liquids and gases.  
  • <em><u>The transmission of mechanical waves involves vibration of particles through the medium of transmission, thus transfer of energy from one point to another. </u></em>The vibration of particle may be in the form of a longitudinal wave or a transverse wave.  
  • <em><u>Increasing the temperature in a medium increases the kinetic energy of the particles in the medium and thus increasing the speed at which the particles vibrates and thus aiding a faster transmission of a wave.</u></em>

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The uncertainty in the location that must be tolerated is 1.163 * 10^{-5} m

Explanation:

From the uncertainty Principle,

Δ_{y} Δ_{p} = \frac{h}{2\pi }

The momentum P_{y} = (mass of electron)(speed of electron)

                                = (9.109 * 10^{-31}kg)(995 * 10^{3} m/s)

                                = 9.0638 * 10^{-25}kgm/s

If the uncertainty is reduced to a 0.0010%, then momentum

                              = 9.068 * 10^{-30}kgm/s

Thus the uncertainty in the position would be:

                              Δ_{y} = \frac{h}{2\pi } * \frac{1}{9.068 * 10^{-30} }

                              Δ_{y} \geq  1.163 * 10^{-5}m
