Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       C = 20 \times 10^{-6} F

        R = 100 \times 10^{3} ohm

        Q_{o} = 100 \times 10^{-6} C

          Q = 13.5 \times 10^{-6} C

Formula to calculate the time is as follows.

          Q_{t}  = Q_{o} [e^{\frac{-t}{\tau}]

       13.5 \times 10^{-6} = 100 \times 10^{-6} [e^{\frac{-t}{2}}]

               0.135 = e^{\frac{-t}{2}}

         e^{\frac{t}{2}} = \frac{1}{0.135}

                         = 7.407

           \frac{t}{2} = ln (7.407)

                      t = 4.00 s

Therefore, we can conclude that time after the resistor is connected will the capacitor is 4.0 sec.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The x-component of the electric field at the origin = -11.74 N/C.

The y-component of the electric field at the origin = 97.41 N/C.

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Charge on first charged particle, q_1=-4.10\ nC=-4.10\times 10^{-9}\ C.
  • Charge on the second charged particle, q_2=3.80\ nC=3.80\times 10^{-9}\ C.
  • Position of the first charge = (x_1=0.00\ m,\ y_1=0.600\ m).
  • Position of the second charge = (x_2=1.50\ m,\ y_2=0.650\ m).

The electric field at a point due to a charge q at a point r distance away is given by

\vec E = \dfrac{kq}{|\vec r|^2}\ \hat r.

where,

  • k = Coulomb's constant, having value \rm 8.99\times 10^9\ Nm^2/C^2.
  • \vec r = position vector of the point where the electric field is to be found with respect to the position of the charge q.
  • \hat r = unit vector along \vec r.

The electric field at the origin due to first charge is given by

\vec E_1 = \dfrac{kq_1}{|\vec r_1|^2}\ \hat r_1.

\vec r_1 is the position vector of the origin with respect to the position of the first charge.

Assuming, \hat i,\ \hat j are the units vectors along x and y axes respectively.

\vec r_1=(0-x_1)\hat i+(0-y_1)\hat j\\=(0-0)\hat i+(0-0.6)\hat j\\=-0.6\hat j.\\\\|\vec r_1| = 0.6\ m.\\\hat r_1=\dfrac{\vec r_1}{|\vec r_1|}=\dfrac{0.6\ \hat j}{0.6}=-\hat j.

Using these values,

\vec E_1 = \dfrac{(8.99\times 10^9)\times (-4.10\times 10^{-9})}{(0.6)^2}\ (-\hat j)=1.025\times 10^2\ N/C\ \hat j.

The electric field at the origin due to the second charge is given by

\vec E_2 = \dfrac{kq_2}{|\vec r_2|^2}\ \hat r_2.

\vec r_2 is the position vector of the origin with respect to the position of the second charge.

\vec r_2=(0-x_2)\hat i+(0-y_2)\hat j\\=(0-1.50)\hat i+(0-0.650)\hat j\\=-1.5\hat i-0.65\hat j.\\\\|\vec r_2| = \sqrt{(-1.5)^2+(-0.65)^2}=1.635\ m.\\\hat r_2=\dfrac{\vec r_2}{|\vec r_2|}=\dfrac{-1.5\hat i-0.65\hat j}{1.634}=-0.918\ \hat i-0.398\hat j.

Using these values,

\vec E_2= \dfrac{(8.99\times 10^9)\times (3.80\times 10^{-9})}{(1.635)^2}(-0.918\ \hat i-0.398\hat j) =-11.74\ \hat i-5.09\ \hat j\  N/C.

The net electric field at the origin due to both the charges is given by

\vec E = \vec E_1+\vec E_2\\=(102.5\ \hat j)+(-11.74\ \hat i-5.09\ \hat j)\\=-11.74\ \hat i+(102.5-5.09)\hat j\\=(-11.74\ \hat i+97.41\ \hat j)\ N/C.

Thus,

x-component of the electric field at the origin = -11.74 N/C.

y-component of the electric field at the origin = 97.41 N/C.

A ray is incident on a film of thickness t and the index of refraction n=1.6 at an angle θ = 35 degrees. Find the angle of refra
lidiya [134]

Answer

Given,

refractive index of film, n = 1.6

refractive index of air, n' = 1

angle of incidence, i = 35°

angle of refraction, r = ?

Using Snell's law

n' sin i = n sin r

1 x sin 35° = 1.6 x sin  r

 r = 21°

Angle of refraction is equal to 21°.

Now,

distance at which refractive angle comes out

d = 2.5 mm

α be the angle with horizontal surface and incident ray.

α = 90°-21° = 69°

t be the thickness of the film.

So,

tan \alpha = \dfrac{t}{d/2}

tan 61^0 = \dfrac{t}{2.5/2}

t = 2.26 mm

Hence, the thickness of the film is equal to 2.26 mm.

A person is standing on a raft; their
krok68 [10]

Answer:

The volume of water displaced by the raft is 0.233 m³

Explanation:

The question relates to Archimedes' principle which states that the buoyant force experienced by an object immersed in a fluid is equal to the weight of (the force of gravity on) the displaced fluid

The given parameters are;

The combined mass of the person and the raft, m = 233 kg

The liquid on which the raft is located = Water

The density of water, \rho _{water} = 1000 kg/m³

Weight = Mass, m × g

Where;

m = The mass of the object

g = The acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

Given that the raft is on the surface of the water (floating), the buoyant force is equal to the combined weight of the person and the raft = 233 kg

The combined weight of the person and the raft, W_{combined} = 233 kg × 9.8 m/s² = 2,283.4 N

Therefore;

The buoyant force = 2,283.4 N = The weight of the water displaced

The mass of the water displaced, m_{water}, = 2,283.4 N/(9.8 m/s²) = 233 kg

Density = Mass/Volume

The volume of water displaced by the raft = The mass of the water displaced/(The density of the water) = 233 kg/(1,000 kg/m³) = 0.233 m³.
