Answer:

F = - 2 A x - B

Explanation:

The force and potential energy are related by the expression

      F = - dU / dx i ^ -dU / dy j ^ - dU / dz k ^

Where i ^, j ^, k ^ are the unit vectors on the x and z axis

The potential they give us is

     U (x) = A x² + B x + C

Let's calculate the derivatives

    dU / dx = A 2x + B + 0

The other derivatives are zero because the potential does not depend on these variables.

Let's calculate the strength

      F = - 2 A x - B

A circuit contains four capacitors in parallel (10 F, 3 F, 7 F, and 1 F). What is the equivalent capacitance of this circuit?
Oxana [17]

The equivalent capacitance (C_{eq}) of an electrical circuit containing four capacitors which are connected in parallel is equal to: A. 21 F.

<h3>The types of circuit.</h3>

Basically, the components of an electrical circuit can be connected or arranged in two forms and these are;

  • Series circuit
  • Parallel circuit

<h3>What is a parallel circuit?</h3>

A parallel circuit can be defined as an electrical circuit with the same potential difference (voltage) across its terminals. This ultimately implies that, the equivalent capacitance (C_{eq}) of two (2) capacitors which are connected in parallel is equal to the sum of the individual (each) capacitances.

Mathematically, the equivalent capacitance (C_{eq}) of an electrical circuit containing four capacitors which are connected in parallel is given by this formula:

Ceq = C₁ + C₂ + C₃ + C₄

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

Ceq = 10 F + 3 F + 7 F + 1 F

Equivalent capacitance, Ceq = 21 F.

What information and measurements would you need to calculate the rate of movement?
aliina [53]
When you talk about rate, you will expect that it will be in terms of a time unit. It measures how fast it is going. So, you would expect that the denominator is in time units. For the movement, you can measure this with either distance or velocity.

So, for the first variety, you would need distance and time to measure the rate of how far you go at a certain time. It is also called as velocity. For the second variety, you would need velocity and time to measure the rate of how fast you are going at a certain interval. It is also called as acceleration.

An object of length 3.00 cm is inside a plastic block with index of refraction 1.40. If the object is viewed from directly above
Lilit [14]
  • The length of its image = -3cm

Given,

length of object, h_o = 3 cm

We know, for flat refracting surface,  

Image distance = object distance

So,

magnification is = -1

length of the image,

h_i = magnification * h_o\\\\h_i = -1 * 3 \\\\h_i = -3cm

Here, negative sign means inverted image.

Match each type of wave to the way it moves.
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

Transverse wave- Back and forth at right angles to the direction of the wave arrow.

longitudinal wave- bask and forth in the direction of the motion of the motion of the wave.

electromagnetic wave- two alternating waves moving at right angles to each other.

Explanation:

In a longitudinal wave, the particles vibrate at right angles in reference to the wave motion.

In a transverse wave, the particles vibrate parallel to the wave motion

Electromagnetic waves occur as a result of the interaction between two  waves and are normally transverse in nature.
