Given Information:

Internal resistance of battery = 0.460

Resistance = 21.0 Ω

Capacitance = 56.0 µF

Required Information:

time constant = τ = ?

Answer:

τ = 0.0012

Explanation:

The time constant τ provides the information about how long it will take to charge the capacitor up to certain level.

τ = Req*C

Where Req is the equivalent resistance and C is the capacitance.

Req = R + r

Where R is the resistance of the resistor and r is the internal resistance of the battery.

Req = 21.0 + 0.460 = 21.460 Ω

τ = Req*C

τ = 21.46*56x10⁻⁶

τ = 0.0012

A capacitor approximately charges to 63% in one τ and about 99% in 5τ

Answer: 1.176×10^-3 s

Explanation: The time constant formulae for an RC circuit is given below as

t =RC

Where t = time constant , R = magnitude of resistance = 21 ohms , C = capacitance of capacitor = 56 uf = 56×10^-6 F

t = 56×10^-6 × 21

t = 1176×10^-6

t = 1.176×10^-3 s

Which of the following statements is false?
vladimir1956 [14]

An excited atom can return to its ground state by absorbing electromagnetic radiation is false about the electromagnetic radiation.

Option B

<u>Explanation</u>:

In the scope of modern quantum theory, the term Electromagnetic radiation is identified as the movement of photons through space. Almost all the sources of energy that we utilize today such as coal, oil, etc are a product of electromagnetic radiation which was absorbed from the sun millions of years ago.

Various properties of electromagnetic radiations are a directly proportional relationship between the energy and the frequency, Inverse proportionality between frequency and the wavelength, etc. Hence, we can conclude that an "excited atom" can never return to its ground state by assimilating electromagnetic radiation and the 2nd statement is false.

In an engine, an almost ideal gas is compressed adiabatically to half its volume. In doing so, 1850 J of work is done on the gas
Oliga [24]

Answer:

The value of change in internal l energy of the gas = 1850 J

Explanation:

Work done on the gas (W) =  - 1850 J

Negative sign is due to work done on the system.

From the first law  we know that Q = Δ U + W ------------- (1)

Where Q = Heat transfer to the gas

Δ U = Change in internal energy of the gas

W = work done on the gas

Since it is adiabatic compression of the gas so heat transfer to the gas is zero.

⇒ Q = 0

So from equation (1)

⇒ Δ U = - W ----------------- (2)

⇒ W = - 1850 J (Given)

⇒ Δ U = - (- 1850)

⇒ Δ U = + 1850 J

This is the value of change in internal energy of the gas.
