Answer:
a) q = 7.5 10⁻² C
, b) 190 J
, c) I₀ = 50 A
, d) 1.5 mC
Explanation:
The expression for capacitance is
C = q / DV
q = C DV
let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system
ΔV = 5 kV = 5000 V
C = 15 μF = 15 10⁻⁶ F
t = 90 μs = 90 10⁻⁶ s
q = 15 10⁻⁶ 5000
q = 7.5 10⁻² C
b) the energy in a capacitor is
U = ½ C ΔV²
U = ½ 15 10⁻⁶ 5000²
U = 1,875 10² J
answer 190 J
c) At the moment the discharge begins, all the current is available and it decreases with time,
whereby
V = I R
in the first instant I = Io
I₀ = V / R
I₀ = 5000/100
I₀ = 50 A
but this is for a very short time
answer 50 A
d) The definition of current is
i = dq / dt
in this case they give us the total current and the total time, so we can find the total charge
i = q / t
q = i t
q = 17 90 10⁻⁶
q = 1.53 10⁻³ C
answer is 1.5 mC
Researchers from the TU Delft and AMOLF have built an efficient and stable photo-electrode that absorbs light and directly decomposes water into hydrogen and oxygen. Silicon wafers are used for the light-absorbing material, so that the system is cheap as well.
Answer: 9Volts each
Explanation:
Note that for a parallel connected loads in a circuit, same voltage is passed through the loads but different current flows through them. Therefore each loads will possesses the same voltage as the voltage of the battery and since they are all connected to it battery directly i.e 9V
