An initially uncharged 3.47-μF capacitor and a 6.43-kΩ resistor are connected in series to a 1.50-V battery that has negligible

internal resistance. What is the initial current in the circuit, expressed in milliamperes? Calculate the circuit\'s time constant in milliseconds. How much time, in milliseconds, must elapse from the closing of the circuit for the current to decrease to 2.57% of its initial value?

Answer: a) io=233.28 A ( initial current); b) τ=R*C= 22.31 ms; c) 81.7 ms

Explanation:  In order to explain this problem we have to use, the formule for the variation of the current in a RC circuit:

I(t)=io*Exp(-t/τ)

and also we consider that io=V/R=(1.5/6.43*10^3)

=233.28 A

then the time constant for the RC circuit is τ=R*C=6.43*10^3*3.47*10^-6

=22.31 ms

Finally the time to reduce the current to 2.57% of its initial value is obtained from:

I(t)=io*Exp(-t/τ)  for I(t)/io=0.0257=Exp(-t/τ) then

ln(0.0257)*τ =-t

t=-ln(0.0257)*τ=81.68 ms

A pendulum on earth swings with angular frequency ω. On an unknown planet, it swings with angular frequency ω/ 4. The accelerati
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

g / 16

Explanation:

T = 2π \sqrt{\frac{l}{g} }

angular frequency ω = 2π /T

= \sqrt{\frac{g}{l} }

ω₁ /ω₂ = \sqrt{\frac{g_1}{g_2} }

Putting the values

ω₁ = ω ,     ω₂ = ω / 4

ω₁ /ω₂ = 4

4 =  \sqrt{\frac{g}{g_2} }

g₂ = g / 16

option d is correct.

velikii [3]
The velocity is a vectorial quantity, whereas speed is a scalar quantity, meaning it depends on the direction!
As such, the velocity is changing because the direction is changing.

A boy is trying to roll a bowling ball up a hill, as shown in the image below. If
kherson [118]

The minimum initial velocity that the ball must have for it to reach the top of the hill is 21 m/s. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

The mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy of an object at any instant of time.

M.E = KE +PE

A boy is trying to roll a bowling ball up a hill. The friction is ignored.  The ball must have to reach the top of the hill with a velocity. The acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

The conservation of energy principle states that total mechanical energy remains conserved in all situations where there is no external force acting on the system.

M.E bottom of hill = M.E on top of hill

Kinetic energy + Potential energy = Kinetic energy  + Potential energy

1/2 mu² + 0 =  0 + mgh

At the top of hill, the velocity will become zero. So, final kinetic energy is zero.

Substituting the values, we have

1/2 x u² = 9.8 x 22.5

u = sqrt [2 x9.8 x 22.5 ]

u= 21 m/s

Thus, the minimum initial velocity that the ball must have for it to reach the top of the hill is 21 m/s.

a flowerpot falls from a windowsill 25m above the sidewalk how fast is the flowerpot moving when it strikes the ground
Mariana [72]

s = 25m

v = ?

a = 9.81m/s²

v² = u² + 2as

v² = 0 + 2x9.81x25

v² = 490.5

v = √490.5

= 22.15m/s
