<h2>Answer:</h2>

256.05 mJ

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The energy (E) stored in a capacitor when it is charged by a battery of voltage,V, is related to the capacitance, C, of the capacitor as follows;

E  = \frac{1}{2} x C x V²         ---------------(i)

<em>From the question;</em>

When a 1.50V battery is used, the energy is 64.0mJ. This means that when;

V = 1.50V, E = 64.0mJ = 0.064 J

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) to find the capacitance of the capacitor as follows;</em>

0.064 = \frac{1}{2} x C x 1.5²

=> 0.064 = \frac{1}{2} x C x 2.25

=> 0.064 = 1.125 x C

=> C = \frac{0.064}{1.125}

<em>Solve for C;</em>

=> C = 0.0569F

Now, the we know the capacitance of the capacitor, let's calculate how much energy will be stored if the battery were 3.00V by substituting V = 3.00V and C = 0.0569 into equation (i) as follows;

E = \frac{1}{2} x 0.0569 x 3.00²  

E = \frac{1}{2} x 0.0569 x 9.00

E = 0.25605 J

<em>Multiply the result by 1000 to convert it to mJ. i.e;</em>

E = (0.25605 x 1000) mJ

E = 256.05 mJ

Therefore, the amount of energy it would store if the capacitor were fully charged by a 3.00V battery is 256.05 mJ

Answer:

0.256 J.

Explanation:

The formula for the energy stored in a capacitor is given as

E = 1/2CV².................... Equation 1

Where E = Energy stored in the capacitor, C = Capacitance of the capacitor, V = Voltage.

Make C the subject of the equation

C = 2E/V².................. Equation 2

Given: E = 64 mJ  = 0.064 J, V = 1.5 V.

Substitute into equation 2

C = 2(0.064)/(1.5²)

C = 0.128/2.25

C = 0.0569 F.

If the capacitor where fully charged by 3.00 V.

E = 1/2CV²

Given: C = 0.0569 F, V = 3.0 V

Substitute into the equation above,

E = 1/2(0.0569)(3²)

E = 0.256 J.

The relationship between the Period (T) caused by the oscillation of the mass on the end of a hanging spring and the mass (m) is
blondinia [14]

Answer:

T= 2p√m/k

Explanation:

This is because the period of oscillation of the mass of spring system is directly proportional to the square root of the mass and it is inversely proportional to the square root of the spring constant.

The period of a mass on a spring is given by the equation

T=2π√m/k.

Where T is the period,

M is mass

K is spring constant.

An increase in mass in a spring increases the period of oscillation and decrease in mass decrease period of oscillation.
