<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.

Xelga [282]

Krypton ... symbol Kr ... is an element.  It's element number 36, because
there are 36 protons in the nucleus of every atom of Krypton. 

Krypton has nothing to do with Superman, except that about 75 years ago,
the creators of Superman thought it was a cool-sounding scientific word,
so they chose it for the name of his home planet.

Vika [28.1K]
The speed and distances are directly proportional. Use ratios to solve for vertical y-distance. The ratio of x-distance west to y-distance north equals the x-velocity to y-velocity.

x/y = vx/vy
41/y = 8.6/5.2
41/y = 1.65
41/1.65 = y
24.8 m = y

Describe the body's typical state during the first stage of sleep. (Site 1)
Ksju [112]

Answer:

There are four different stages of sleep.

Stage 1 NREM

Explanation:

<em>The process of firmly falling asleep has four stages through which a person goes.</em>

<em>It goes from being awake over light sleep and falling firmly into sleeping.</em>

(STAGE 1)

This is a stage in which there are non-rapid movements of the eyes. In other words, it is a process of dreamless sleep. You enter this stage the moment you decide to sleep and shut your eyes. After several minutes, your body is in fact in the sleeping mode, but not entirely. This means that you can easily be woken up without being aware that you have slept.

Features:

  1. <em>You can easily awake</em>
  2. <em>Your may roll and they may be a little open</em>
  3. <em>The blood pressure and the temperature of the brain start to decrease </em>
  4. <em>You experience the natural human reflexes that the brain sends to assure that the place of your sleep is in a safe environment. By sending twitches to your muscles, your brain may awake your body for several seconds which comes in handy if you are tired and close to sleep on work or some dangerous place like a cliff for example.</em>
  5. <em>Your breading starts to slow down alongside with your pressure and temperature, and your heartbeats slow down.</em>
