Answer:

C₁ = 34.8 μF

C₂ = 0.2 μF

Explanation:

When the capacitors are connected in series their resultant capacitance is given by the formula:

Cs = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂

where,

Cs = Series equivalent capacitance = 4.8 μF

C₁ = Capacitance of 1st Capacitor

C₂ = Capacitance of 2nd Capacitor

Therefore,

4.8 μF = 1/C₁ + 1/C₂

(4.8 μF)(C₁ C₂) = C₁ + C₂   --------------- equation 1

When the capacitors are connected in parallel their resultant capacitance is given by the formula:

Cp = C₁ + C₂

where,

Cp = Parallel equivalent capacitance = 35 μF

Therefore,

35 μF = C₁ + C₂   -------------- equation 2

solving equation 1 and equation 2 simultaneously, we get:

<u>C₁ = 34.8 μF</u>

<u>C₂ = 0.2 μF</u>

If a vector A has components A. 0, and Ay -0, then the magnitude of the vector is negative. Select one: True False
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The magnitude of any vector is given by,

||A||=\sqrt{A_x^2+A_y^2}

The magnitude of anything is never negative. It can be even seen from the formula that the components are squared. A squared value can never be negative. Even if the component is negative the square will be always positive.

So, magnitude of the vector is <u>not</u> negative.

A 90 kg painter is standing on a horizontal wooden scaffolding of length 10 m, which is supported on each end by a rope. The pai
RSB [31]

Explanation:

For equilibrium, \sum M = 0.

So,   8 m \times mg - (10 m) T_{1} = 0

             T_{1} = \frac{8 \times mg}{10}

                        = \frac{8 \times 90 \times 9.8}{10}

                        = 705.6 N

Also, for equilibrium \sum F_{y} = 0

              T_{1} + T_{2} - mg = 0

or,         T_{2} = mg - T_{1}

                        = 90 \times 9.8 - 705.6

                        = 176.4 N

Thus, we can conclude that the tension in the first rope is 176.4 N.

An output is a Push or pull _________________________ on the object
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The input force that you use on an inclined plane is the force with which you push or pull an object. The output force is the force that you would need to lift the object without the inclined plane. This force is equal to the weight of the object.

A uniform rod of length L rests on a frictionless horizontal surface. The rod pivots about a fixed frictionless axis at one end.
Veronika [31]

Answer:

A) ω = 6v/19L

B) K2/K1 = 3/19

Explanation:

Mr = Mass of rod

Mb = Mass of bullet = Mr/4

Ir = (1/3)(Mr)L²

Ib = MbRb²

Radius of rotation of bullet Rb = L/2

A) From conservation of angular momentum,

L1 = L2

(Mb)v(L/2) = (Ir+ Ib)ω2

Where Ir is moment of inertia of rod while Ib is moment of inertia of bullet.

(Mr/4)(vL/2) = [(1/3)(Mr)L² + (Mr/4)(L/2)²]ω2

(MrvL/8) = [((Mr)L²/3) + (MrL²/16)]ω2

Divide each term by Mr;

vL/8 = (L²/3 + L²/16)ω2

vL/8 = (19L²/48)ω2

Divide both sides by L to obtain;

v/8 = (19L/48)ω2

Thus;

ω2 = 48v/(19x8L) = 6v/19L

B) K1 = K1b + K1r

K1 = (1/2)(Mb)v² + Ir(w1²)

= (1/2)(Mr/4)v² + (1/3)(Mr)L²(0²)

= (1/8)(Mr)v²

K2 = (1/2)(Isys)(ω2²)

I(sys) is (Ir+ Ib). This gives us;

Isys = (19L²Mr/48)

K2 =(1/2)(19L²Mr/48)(6v/19L)²

= (1/2)(36v²Mr/(48x19)) = 3v²Mr/152

Thus, the ratio, K2/K1 =

[3v²Mr/152] / (1/8)(Mr)v² = 24/152 = 3/19
