Answer:

The time constant is 0.26 s

Explanation:

From ohm's law,

Current (I) = potential difference ÷ resistance = 11.1 ÷ 3.19 = 3.48 A

Quantity of electricity (Q) = capacitance × potential difference = 81.9×10×^-3 × 11.1 = 0.90909 C

time constant (t) = Q/I = 0.90909/3.48 = 0.26 s

<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.261s

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

For an R-C discharging circuit, the time constant τ, is the product of the capacitance (C) of the capacitor and the resistance (R) of the resistor. i.e

τ = R x C               ------------------(i)

From the question;

R = 3.19Ω

C = 81.9mF =  81.9 x 10⁻³F

Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;

τ = 81.9 x 10⁻³ x 3.19

τ = 261.261 x 10⁻³

τ = 0.261s

Therefore, the time constant is 0.261s

Answer:

4th answer

Explanation:

The gradient of a distance-time graph gives the speed.

gradient = distance / time = speed

Here, the gradient is a constant till 30s. So it has travelled at a constant speed. It means it had not accelarated till 30s. and has stopped moving at 30s.

A boy is whirling a stone around his head by means of a string. The string makes one complete revolution every second; and the m
Damm [24]

Answer

given,                                                

Tension of string is F                                                  

velocity is increased and the radius is not changed.      

the string makes two complete revolutions every second

consider the centrifugal force acting on the stone          

  = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}                          

now centrifugal force is balanced by tension

T =\dfrac{mv^2}{r}                                

From the above expression we can clearly see that tension is directly proportional to velocity and inversely proportional to radius.

When radius is not changing velocity is increasing means tension will also increase in the string.

What is E=m² the famous theory of albert einstien?
pshichka [43]
Actually it's E = mc^{2} and it says that the energy of an object (E) is equal to the mass (m) of the object multiplied with the squared speed of light (c^{2}). This theory says that mass can be turned into energy and energy can be turned into mass. This is one of Einstein's theory of relativity.
