Force = (mass) x (acceleration)    (Newton's second law of motion)

Divide both sides of the equation by 'acceleration', and you have

Mass = (force) / (acceleration)

Mass = 17 newtons / 3.75 meters per second-sqrd = 4.533 kilograms (rounded)

A charge of 2.00 μC flows onto the plates of a capacitor when it is connected to a 12.0-V potential source. What is the minimum
uysha [10]

To develop this problem we will apply the concept of energy conservation. For which the work carried out must be equivalent to the potential energy stored on the capacitor. We will start by finding the capacitance to later be able to calculate the energy and therefore the work in the capacitor

C = \frac{Q}{V}

Here,

C = Capacitance

V = Potential difference between the plates

Q = Charge between the capacitor plates

At the same time the energy stored in the capacitor can be defined as,

U = \frac{1}{2} CV^2

We will start by finding the value of the capacitance, so we will have to,

C = \frac{2\mu C}{12.0V}

C = 0.166\mu F

Finally using the expression for the energy we have that,

U = \frac{1}{2} CV^2

U = \frac{1}{2} (0.166\muF)(12.0V)^2

U = 11.0*10^{-6} J

Therefore the minimum amount of work that must be done in charging this capacitor is 11.0*10^{-6} J

An unknown mass of each of the following substances, initially at 23.0, absorbs 1910 of heat. The final temperature is recorded
babymother [125]
The data not given here is the specific heat capacity of pyrex glass equal to 0.75(J/g  °C). In this case, heat is equal to mass x specific heat capacity x temperature rise. Temperature difference is then equal to 1910 J / 0.75 J/g  °C / 23 g equal to 110. 75  <span>°C </span>
