A capacitor in a single-loop RC circuit is charged to 85% of its final potential difference in 2.4 s. What is the time constant

atroni [7]

Answer:

The time constant is $\tau = 1.265 s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

the time take to charge is $t = 2.4 \ s$

The mathematically representation for voltage potential of a capacitor at different time is

$V = V_o - e^{-\frac{t}{\tau} }$

Where $\tau$ is the time constant

$V_o$ is the potential of the capacitor when it is full

So the capacitor potential will be 100% when it is full thus $V_o =$ 100% = 1

and from the question we are told that the at the given time the potential of the capacitor is 85% = 0.85 of its final potential so

V = 0.85

Hence

$0.85 = 1 - e^{-\frac{2.4}{\tau } }$

$- {\frac{2.4}{\tau } } = ln0.15$

$\tau = 1.265 s$

Determine the speed, wavelength, and frequency of light from a helium-neon laser as it travels through polystyrene. The waveleng

klemol [59]

Answer:

Speed:

$2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Wavelength:

$4.24x10^{-7}m$

Frequency:

$4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Explanation:

The speed of the laser as it travels through polystyrene can be determine by means of the equation of the refraction index:

$n = \frac{c}{v}$ (1)

Where c is the speed of light and v is the speed of the laser in the medium.

Therefore, v will be isolated from equation 1

$v = \frac{c}{n}$

$v = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{1.490}$

$v = 2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Hence, the speed of the laser has a value of $2.01x10^{8}m/s$

Frenquency:

Since, wavelength is the only one who depends on the media. Therefore the frequency in both medium will be the same.

To determine the frequency it can be used the following equation

$c = \nu \cdot \lambda$ (2)

Where c is the speed of light, $\nu$ is the frequency and $\lambda$ is the wavelength

Then, $\nu$ wil be isolated from equation 2.

$\nu = \frac{c}{\lambda}$ (3)

Before using equation 3 it is necessary to express $\lamba$ in units of meters.

$\lambda = 632.8nm . \frac{1m}{1x10^{9}nm}$ ⇒ $6.328x10^{-7}m$

$\nu = \frac{3x10^{8}m/s}{6.328x10^{-7}m}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}$

$\nu = 4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Hence, the frequency of the laser has a value of $4.74x10^{14}Hz$

Wavelength:

To determine the wavelength it can be used:

$v = \nu \cdot \lambda$

$\lambda = \frac{v}{\nu}$

Where v is the speed of the laser through the polystyrene.

$\lambda = \frac{2.01x10^{8}m/s}{4.74x10^{14}s^{-1}}$

$\lambda = 4.24x10^{-7}m$

Hence, the wavelength of the laser has a value of $4.24x10^{-7}m$

an electromagnetic wave propagates in a vacuum in the x-direction. In what direction does the electric field oscilate

sweet [91]

Answer:

<em>The electric field can either oscillates in the z-direction, or the y-direction, but must oscillate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field.</em>

Explanation:

Electromagnetic waves are waves that have an oscillating magnetic and electric field, that oscillates perpendicularly to one another. Electromagnetic waves are propagated in a direction perpendicular to both the electric and the magnetic field. If the wave is propagated in the x-direction, then the electric field can either oscillate in the y-direction, or the z-direction but must oscillate perpendicularly to both the the direction of oscillation of the magnetic field, and the direction of propagation of the wave.
