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

Two uncharged metal spheres, spaced 25.0 cm apart, have a capacitance of 26.0 pF. How much work would it take to move 12.0 nC of
viktelen [127]

Answer:

W=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J

Explanation:

Given that,

The distance between two spheres, r = 25 cm = 0.25 m

The capacitance, C = 26 pF = 26×10⁻¹² F

Charge, Q = 12 nC = 12 × 10⁻⁹ C

We need to find the work done in moving the charge. We know that, work done is given by :

U=\dfrac{Q^2}{2C}

Put all the values,

U=\dfrac{(12\times 10^{-9})^2}{2\times 26\times 10^{-12}}\\\\U=2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J

So, the work done is 2.76\times 10^{-6}\ J.

Mercury has a radial acceleration of 3.96 × 10−2 m/s2 and its orbital period is T = 88 days. What is the radius of Mercury’s orb
Maslowich

Answer: 58,045,522,878.8 meters

Explanation:

Ok, the data we have is

Period = T = 88 days

Radial acceleration = ar = 3.96x10^-2 m/s^2

And we know that the equation for the radial acceleration is:

ar = v^2/r = r*w^2

Where v is the velocity. r is the radius and w is the angular velocity.

And we know that:

w = 2*pi*f

where f is the frequency, and:

T = 1/f.

Then we can write:

w = 2*pi/T

and our equation becomes:

ar = r*(2*pi/T)^2

Now we solve this for r.

First we need to use the same units in both equations, so we want to write T in seconds.

T = 88 days,

A day has 24 hours, and one hour has 3600 seconds:

T = 88*24*3600 s =7,603,200s

Then:

3.96x10^-2 m/s^2 = r*(2*3.14/7,603,200s)^2

r = (3.96x10^-2 m/s^2) /(2*3.14/7,603,200s)^2 = 58,045,522,878.8 meters

You push on a cart (18.0kg) at a 30 degree below horizontal angle. The coefficient of kinetic friction between the chair and the
podryga [215]

Given that force is applied at an angle of 30 degree below the horizontal

So let say force applied if F

now its two components are given as

F_x = Fcos30


F_y = Fsin30


Now the normal force on the block is given as

N = Fsin30 + mg

N = 0.5F + (18\times 9.8)

N = 0.5F + 176.4

now the friction force on the cart is given as

F_f = \mu N

F_f = 0.625(0.5F + 176.4)

F_f = 110.25 + 0.3125F

now if cart moves with constant speed then net force on cart must be zero

so now we have

F_f + F_x = 0

Fcos30 - (110.25 + 0.3125F) = 0

0.866F - 0.3125F = 110.25

F = 199.2 N

so the force must be 199.2 N

Explain the difference between the synodic period of a planet and the sidereal period. why is the synodic period often much less
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
-Synodic period is the period of celestial bodies observed on the moving planet(mostly earth)
Sideral period is the period comparing to the fixed stars without motion of the earth involved.

(I will explain the second question with an example, so it's easier to understand)
-For Sideral month for example of the moon it cactually complete one revolution in around 27.3 days.
However, since the earth moves, for us it took some more time to see the moon the same as before (fullmoon to fullmoon) again. That make synodic month of the moon to be around 29.5 days.
