g Suppose that you charge a 3 F capacitor in a circuit containing eight 3.0 V batteries, so the final potential difference acros
Vladimir79 [104]

The complex, highly technical formula for capacitors is

<em>Q = C V</em>

Charge = (capacitance) (voltage)

Charge = (3 F) (24 V)

<em>Charge = 72 Coulombs</em>

The positive plate of the capacitor is missing 72 coulombs worth of electrons.  They were sucked into positive terminal of the battery stack.

The negative plate of the capacitor has 72 coulombs worth of extra electrons.  They came from the negative terminal of the battery stack.

You should be aware that this is a humongous amount of charge !  An average <u><em>lightning bolt</em></u>, where electrons flow between a cloud and the ground for a short time, is estimated to transfer around <u><em>15 coulombs</em></u> of charge !

The scenario in the question involves a "supercapacitor".  3 F is is no ordinary component ... One distributor I checked lists one of these that's able to stand 24 volts on it, but that product costs $35 apiece, you have to order at least 100 of them at a time, and they take 2 weeks to get.  

Also, IF you can charge this animal to 24 volts, it will hold 864J of energy.  You'd probably have a hard time accomplishing this task with a bag of leftover AA batteries.

What kind of waves are lasers worked by?
Andrew [12]

A laser is worked by electromagnetic radiation. The term "laser" originated as an acronym for "light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation".

The central star of a planetary nebula emits ultraviolet light with wavelength 104nm. This light passes through a diffraction gr
Gala2k [10]

Answer: 31.33 degrees

Explanation:

The diffraction angles \theta_{n} when we have a slit divided into n parts are obtained by  the following equation:

dsin\theta_{n}=n\lambda   (1)

Where:

d is the width of the slit

\lambda  is the wavelength of the light

n is an integer different from zero.

Now, the first-order diffraction angle is given when n=1, hence equation (1) becomes:

dsin\theta_{1}=\lambda   (2)

Now we have to find the value of \theta_{1}:

sin\theta_{1}=\frac{\lambda}{d}  

\theta_{1}=arcsin(\frac{\lambda}{d})   (3)

We know:

\lambda=104nm=104(10)^{-9}m

In addition we are told the diffraction grating has 5000 slits per mm, this means:

d=\frac{1mm}{5000}=\frac{1(10)^{-3}m}{5000}

Substituting the known values in (3):

\theta_{1}=arcsin(\frac{104(10)^{-9}m}{\frac{1(10)^{-3}m}{5000}})

\theta_{1}=arcsin(0.52)

<u>Finally:</u>

\theta_{1}=31.33\º >>>This is the first-order diffraction angle
