Answer:

\tau=0.23\;second

Explanation:

Given,

C=78.7\;mF\\V=11.5\;V\\R=3.03\;\Omega\\

Time constant

\tau=RC\\\tau=78.7\times10^{-3}\times3.03\\\tau=238.461\times10^{-3}\;second\\\tau=0.23\;second

Determine whether each of the statements below is true or false, and place it in the appropriate bin. Objects with equal speeds
lisov135 [29]

Objects with equal speeds definitely have equal velocities. -- FALSE.  For equal velocities, they also have to be going in the same direction.

If you are given an object's velocity, you can definitely determine its speed. -- TRUE.  If you know the velocity, then you know both the object's speed and its direction.

If you know the distance an object travels, and the time it takes to do so, you can determine the object's velocity. -- FALSE. Knowing the distance and time, you can figure out the object's speed.  But if you don't also know the direction it's moving, then you can't say what its velocity is.

If an object moves at constant speed, it must also be moving at constant velocity. -- FALSE.  Besides constant speed, it also needs to move in a straight line to have constant velocity.  If it turns, its velocity changes, even if its speed doesn't.

If an object moves at constant velocity, it must also be moving at constant speed. -- TRUE.  Constant velocity means its speed AND its direction are not changing.

Objects with equal velocities definitely have equal speeds. -- TRUE.  If their velocities are equal, then their speeds are equal AND they're moving in the same direction.

After laboring through this one, I'm wondering if there can possibly be any more ways to say the same thing.

Could a person at the south pole see the north star, explain?? ​
9966 [12]

Answer:

If conditions are just right, you can see Polaris from just south of the equator.  Although Polaris is also known as the North Star, it doesn't lie precisely above Earth's North Pole. If it did, Polaris would have a declination of exactly 90 degree.

What characteristics do atoms of carbon-12, carbon-13, and carbon-14 have in common? 1. same number of electrons 2. same number
Rasek [7]

Answer:

The most common of these is carbon 12, 13, 14. All of these isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass numbers. Carbon has the atomic number of 6 which means that all isotopes have the same proton number. However, the number of neutrons is different, thus giving different mass numbers.
