A 2.81 μF capacitor is charged to 1220 V and a 6.61 μF capacitor is charged to 560 V. These capacitors are then disconnected fro

m their batteries, and the positive plates are now connected to each other and the negative plates are connected to each other. What will be the potential difference across each?

Answer:

756.88 Volts will be the potential difference across each capacitor.

Explanation:

Q=C\times V

Q = Charge on capacitor

C = Capacitance

V = Voltage across capacitor

Capacitance of first capacitor = C_1=2.81 \mu F=2.81\times 10^{-6} F

Charge of first capacitor = Q_1

Voltage across first capacitor = V_1=1220 V

Q_1=C_1V_1

Q_1=2.81\times 10^{-6} F\times 1220 V=0.0034282 C

Capacitance of first capacitor = C_2=6.61\mu F=6.61\times 10^{-6} F

Charge of second capacitor = Q_2

Voltage across first capacitor = V_2=560 V

Q_2=C_2V_2

Q_1=6.61\times 10^{-6} F\times 560 V=0.0037016 C

Both the capacitors are disconnected and positive plates are now connected to each other and the negative plates are connected to each other. These capacitors are connected in parallel combination.

Total charge = Q

Q =Q_1+Q_2=0.0034282 C+ 0.0037016 C=0.0071298 C

Total capacitance in parallel combination:

C_p=C_1+C_2=2.81\times 10^{-6} F+6.61\times 10^{-6} F=9.42\times 10^{-6} F

Potential across both capacitors = V

V=\frac{Q}{C}=\frac{0.0071298 C}{9.42\times 10^{-6} F}=756.88 V

756.88 Volts will be the potential difference across each capacitor.

Which of the following phenomena support the idea that light is a wave?
Pie

Answer:

Wave theory of light explains the phenomena of interference, diffraction, scattering, dispersion, polarisation etc. Complete solution: Around 1700, it was concluded by Newton that light was a group of particles. It was called corpuscular theory.

A wire is oriented along the x-axis. It is connected to two batteries, and a conventional current of 2.6 A runs through the wire
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire is 0.2298 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

we know that, the magnitude of magnetic force is given as;

|F_{mg}^> | = I(B^> × L^> )

given that

I = 2.6 A

B^> = 0.17

L^> = 0.52

so we substitute

|F_{mg}^> | = 2.6( 0.17i" × 0.52j" )

|F_{mg}^> | = 0.2298 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the wire is 0.2298 N
