Answer: 5 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following :

Inductance (L) = 40 henry

Resistance = 8 ohms

The circuit given above is a Resistor - Inductor (RL) circuit network. The time constant of an RL circuit is the ratio of the circuit Inductance (L) and Resistance (R). Time constant is measured in seconds.

THAT IS;

Time constant = L / R

THEREFORE ;

Time constant = 40 / 8

Time constant = 5 seconds

The gas in a balloon has T=280 K and V=0.0279 m^3. if the temperature increases to 320 K at constant pressure, what is the new v
victus00 [196]

Answer:

0.0319 m³

Explanation:

Use ideal gas law:

PV = nRT

where P is pressure, V is volume, n is amount of gas, R is the gas constant, and T is temperature.

Since P, n, and R are held constant:

n₁ R / P₁ = n₂ R₂ / P₂

Which means:

V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂

Plugging in:

0.0279 m³ / 280 K = V / 320 K

V = 0.0319 m³

stephen buys a new moped . he travels 4km south and then 6km east. how far does he need to go to get back where he started??
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

My answer is 7.2 km

Explanation:

When Stephen goes to the south and then to the east, he is drawing a right triangle, where the 4 km and 6 km sides are the cathetus of a right triangle.

Then we use the Pithagorean theorem to solve this problem. We need to find the hypotenuse.

c² = a² + b²

c² = 4² + 6²

c² = 16 + 36

c² = 52

c = 7.2 km

What happens to the electric potential energy of a negatively charged ion as it moves through the water from the negative probe
Nataly [62]

Answer:

Decreases.

Explanation:

Electric potential energy is the potential energy which is associated with the configuration of points charge in a system and it is the result of conservative coulomb force.

When the negatively charge ion is at the position of the negative probe than its potential energy is positive when it is move towards the positive probe it's potential energy becomes negative due to the negative ion.

Therefore, potential energy is decreases when negative charge ion moves through the water from negative probe to positive probe.
