A 0.9 µF capacitor is charged to a potential difference of 10.0 V. The wires connecting the capacitor to the battery are then di

sconnected from the battery and connected across a second, initially uncharged, capacitor. The potential difference across the 0.9 µF capacitor then drops to 2 V. What is the capacitance of the second capacitor?

Answer:

3.6μF

Explanation:

The charge on the capacitor is defined by the formula

q = CV

because the charge will be conserved

q₁ = C₁V₂

q₂ = C₂V₂ where C₂ V₂ represent the charge on the newly connected capacitor  and the voltage drop across the two capacitor will be the same

q = q₁ + q₂ = C₁V₂ + C₂V₂

CV = CV₂ + C₂V₂

CV - CV₂ = C₂V₂

C ( V - V₂) = C₂V₂

C ( V/ V₂ - V₂ /V₂) = C₂

C₂ = 0.9 ( 10 /2) - 1) = 0.9( 5 - 1) = 3.6μF

A wire along the z axis carries a current of 6.8 A in the z direction Find the magnitude and direction of the force exerted on a
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

Force is 14.93N along positive y axis.

Explanation:

We know that force 'F' on a current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field of intensity B is given by

\overrightarrow{F}=\overrightarrow{Il}\times \overrightarrow{B}

where L is the length of the conductor

Applying values in the equation we have force F =

\overrightarrow{F}=6.8\times 6.1\widehat{k}\times 0.36\widehat{i}\\\\\overrightarrow{F}=41.48\widehat{k}\times 0.36\widehat{i}\\\\\therefore \overrightarrow{F}=14.93N\widehat{j}

Thus force is 14.93N along positive y axis.

A roller coaster has a "hump" and a "loop" for riders to enjoy (see picture). The top of the hump has a radius of curvature of 1
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Part a)

F_n = 306 N

Part b)

v = 12.1 m/s

So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider

Explanation:

Part a)

By force equation on the rider at the position of the hump we can say

mg - F_n = ma_c

now we will have

mg - F_n = \frac{mv^2}{R}

F_n = mg - \frac{mv^2}{R}

now we have

F_n = 100(9.81) - \frac{100(9^2)}{12}

F_n = 981 - 675

F_n = 306 N

Part b)

At the top of the loop if the minimum speed is required so that it remains in contact so we will have

F_n + mg = ma_c

F_n = 0 at minimum speed

mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}

v = \sqrt{Rg}

v = \sqrt{15 \times 9.81}

v = 12.1 m/s

So this speed is independent of the mass of the rider

Answer:

Carbs Provide Your Body With Energy

Proteins help your body build new cells, repair old cells, create hormones and enzymes, and keep your immune system healthy

Calcium is a mineral that people need to build and maintain strong bones and teeth. It is also very important for other physical functions, such as muscle control and blood circulation.

Stored body fat is called adipose tissue. Stored fat not only provides an energy reserve, but also cushions and protects internal organs. In addition, stored fat insulates the body and helps prevent heat loss in cold weather

A 20-kg barrel is rolled up a 20-m ramp to the back of a truck whose floor is 5.0 m above the ground. What work is done in loadi
oee [108]

The angle of inclination is calculated using sin function,

sin θ = 5 m / 20 m = 0.25

θ = 14.4775° 

 

<span>The net force exerted is then calculated:
F net = m g sin θ = 20 * 9.8 * 0.25 </span>

F net = 49N 

<span>Work is product of net force and distance:
W = F net * d = 49 * 20 </span>

<span>Work = 980 J </span>
