jonny [76]

Answer:

(a). The time constant of the circuit is 2.17.

(b). The potential difference across the capacitor at t=17.0 s is 0.0396 V.

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial potential difference = 100 V

Potential difference across the capacitor = 1.00 V

(a). We need to calculate the time constant of the circuit

Using formula of potential difference

$V(t)=V_{0}e^{\dfrac{-t}{RC}}$

Put the value into the formula

$1.00=100e^{\dfrac{-10.0}{RC}}$

$0.01=e^{\dfrac{-10.0}{RC}}$

On taking ln

$ln(0.01)=\dfrac{-10}{RC}$

$RC=\dfrac{-10}{ln(0.01)}$

$RC=2.17$

(b). We need to calculate the potential difference across the capacitor at t=17.0 s

Using formula again

$V(17)=100e^{\dfrac{-17}{2.17}}$

$V{17}=0.0396\ V$

Hence, (a). The time constant of the circuit is 2.17.

(b). The potential difference across the capacitor at t=17.0 s is 0.0396 V.

Two small objects are suspended from threads. When the objects are moved close together, they attract one another. What of the f

creativ13 [48]

Answer:d

Explanation:

All the given situations are possible because

(a)When particles are oppositely charged then they attract each other

(b)One is Positively charged and other is uncharged: Charged particle will induce charges of opposite nature to attract the other particle

(c)Negatively charged particles will induce the positive charge in the uncharged particle to attract the initially uncharged particle.

You are making a 568b utp crossover cable that will be used to cascade two switches on an ethernet network. you have attached an

Elina [12.6K]

For a 568B crossover cable that already has wht-org and org on pins 1 and 2 of the connector at one end, the connector at the OTHER end should have wht-grn and grn on pins 1 and 2 respectively.

The wht-org and org at that end should drop to pins 3 and 6 respectively.

You're welcome, and good luck.

According to Newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statements are true?

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Before we solve this, we should know this fact:

According to Newton's Law of Gravitation, the force between two objects is directly proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. The force acts along the line joining the centres of the two objects. It can be shown by this:

$F ∝ \frac{Mm}{ {d}^{2} }$

Now, let us check all the options.

A. As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases.

This statement is true.

The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the square of distance from the centre of the earth. If, we go up the surface of the earth, the distance from the centre of the earth increases and hence the value of force of gravity decrease. So, force of gravity decreases with altitude.

B. As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is false.

We have already got the result in option A. that the force of gravity decreases with altitude. It never increases with altitude.

C. As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us decreases.

This statement is false.

The force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses. So, if increase our mass, then the force of gravity will also increase and if we decrease our mass, then the force of gravity decreases.

D. As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is true.

As mentioned earlier in option C., the force of gravity is directly proportional to the product of the masses of the earth and another object. So, as we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

E. As we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

This statement is true.

Here, we have to consider a different formula. According to Newton's Second Law,

F = ma, where F is the force, m is the mass and a is the acceleration.

In other words,

F ∝ a, i.e., force is directly proportional to acceleration.

We know, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an body within a time period.

So, if speed is increased, then acceleration will also be greater, which results in the increase of force. So, as we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

Answers:

A: As we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases.

D: As we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases.

E: As we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.

Hope you could understand.

If you have any query, feel free to ask.
