A charging RC circuit controls the intermittent windshield wipers in a car. The emf is 12.0 V. The wipers are triggered when the

voltage across the 125 mu or micro F capacitor reaches 10.0 V; then the capacitor is quickly discharged (through a much smaller resistor) and the cycle repeats. What resistance should be used in the charging circuit if the wipers are to operate once every 1.80 s?

Answer:

R=803k\Omega

Explanation:

We have the following information,

V_0 = 12V\\V=10V\\c= 1.25*10^{-6}F\\t=1.8s

We apply the equation for capacitor charging the voltage across it,

V=V_0 (1-e^{-t/x})\\e^{-t/x}=1-(\frac{V}{V_0})\\-\frac{t}{Rc}=ln(\frac{V}{V_0})\\R=-\frac{t}{ln(\frac{V}{V_0})*c}

Replacing values,

R=-\frac{1.8}{ln(10/12)*1.25*10^{-6}}

R=803k\Omega

2. Can you place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g so they are in equilibrium. Justify your answer.
Bond [772]

Answer:

We cannot place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g in equilibrium.

Explanation:

Equilibrium means their sum must be zero.

Here the forces are 5g, 6g, and 12g.

For number of forces to be in equilibrium the magnitude of largest vector should be less than sum of the magnitude of other vectors.

Here

        Magnitude of largest force = 12 g

        Sum of magnitudes of other forces = 5g + 6g = 11g

       Magnitude of largest force >   Sum of magnitudes of other forces

So this forces cannot form equilibrium.

We cannot place three forces of 5g, 6g, and 12g in equilibrium.
