Answer:

$74.23\mu F$

Explanation:

We have given the value of resistance R = 30 ohm

Time in which current will decreases to 26% is 3 ms

The discharging equation of the capacitor is given by

$i=i_0e^\frac{-t}{\tau }$ here $\tau$ is time constant which is given as $\tau =RC$

So $0.26i_0=i_0e^\frac{-3}{\tau }$

$0.26=e^\frac{-3}{\tau }$

$\frac{-3}{\tau }=ln0.26$

$\frac{-3}{\tau }=-1.347$

${\tau }=\frac{3}{1.347}=2.2271ms$

WE know that $\tau =RC=30C$

$C=\frac{2.227}{30}=0.074mF=74.23\mu F$

A horizontal beam of light of intensity 25 W/m2 is sent through two polarizing sheets. The polarizing direction of the first mak

Zina [86]

Answer:

option (B)

Explanation:

Intensity of unpolarised light, I = 25 W/m^2

When it passes from first polarisr, the intensity of light becomes

$I'=\frac{I_{0}}{2}=\frac{25}{2}=12.5 W/m^{2}$

Let the intensity of light as it passes from second polariser is I''.

According to the law of Malus

$I'' = I' Cos^{2}\theta$

Where, θ be the angle between the axis first polariser and the second polariser.

$I'' = 12.5\times Cos^{2}15$

I'' = 11.66 W/m^2

I'' = 11.7 W/m^2

A 3200-lb car is moving at 64 ft/s down a 30-degree grade when it runs out of fuel. Find its velocity after that if friction exe

Karolina [17]

Answer:

The velocity is 40 ft/sec.

Explanation:

Given that,

Force = 3200 lb

Angle = 30°

Speed = 64 ft/s

The resistive force with magnitude proportional to the square of the speed,

$F_{r}=kv^2$

Where, k = 1 lb s²/ft²

We need to calculate the velocity

Using balance equation

$F\sin\theta-F_{r}=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

Put the value into the formula

$3200\sin 30-kv^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

Put the value of k

$3200\times\dfrac{1}{2}-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

$1600-v^2=m\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}$

At terminal velocity $\dfrac{d^2v}{dt^2}=0$

So, $1600-v^2=0$

$v=\sqrt{1600}$

$v=40\ ft/sec$

Hence, The velocity is 40 ft/sec.

Lunna [17]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Let Charge of $1\ \mu C$ is taken from points A & B such that $V_A-V_B=1000\ V$ .

We need to find the energy of charge. Electric potential is defined as the work done per unit of electric charge. So,

$W=(V_B-V_A)q\\\\W=-1000\times 10^{-6}\\\\W=E=-10^{-3}\ J$

So, the energy of charge decreases by $10^{-3}\ J$ . Hence, the correct option is (a).
