You take a couple of capacitors and connect them in series, to which you observe a total capacitance of 4.8microfarads. However,

when you connect them in parallel their combined capacitance is 35microfarads. Determine the value of each capacitor.

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>

a woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes. She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minu
TiliK225 [7]

When a  woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes. She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minutes. then the woman's average speed during her entire motion would be  73.15 meters /minute.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

The total distance covered by any object per unit of time is known as speed.

the mathematical expression for speed is given by

speed = total; distance /total time

As given in the problem a woman walks south at a speed of 2.0mph for 60 minutes

60 min = 1 hour

1 mile = 1.60934 km

The distance covered by her southwards  =  speed ×time

                                                                      =2 mph × 60 minutes

                                                                      = 3.218 km

She then turns around and walks north at a distance of 3000m in 25 minutes

The distance covered northward is 3000m

speed = total distance /total time

          =(3218 +3000) /(60+25)

          =73.15 meters /minutes

Thus, The average speed of the woman would be 73.15 meters /minute.

How do iquantum tunel through a wall and how long will it take me?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The phenomenon known as "tunneling" is one of the best-known predictions of quantum physics, because it so dramatically confounds our classical intuition for how objects ought to behave. If you create a narrow region of space that a particle would have to have a relatively high energy to enter, classical reasoning tells us that low-energy particles heading toward that region should reflect off the boundary with 100% probability. Instead, there is a tiny chance of finding those particles on the far side of the region, with no loss of energy. It's as if they simply evaded the "barrier" region by making a "tunnel" through it.

This illustration shows two opposing forces pulling on a wagon. Which description best describes how the wagon will move?
Talja [164]

Answer:

The wagon will move to the right.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 30 N

Direction of the wagon =.?

To determine the direction in which the wagon will move, we shall determine the net force acting on the wagon. This can be obtained as follow:

Force applied to the left (Fₗ) = 10 N

Force applied to the right (Fᵣ) = 30 N

Net force (Fₙ) =?

Fₙ = Fᵣ – Fₗ

Fₙ = 30 – 10

Fₙ = 20 N to the right

From the calculations made above, the net force acting on the wagon is 20 N to the right. Hence the wagon will move to the right.
